    BHN Rewards is great if you need to send a reward to an international audience. The ability to look at claim data is also helpful when I'm trying to prevent fraud.

    Kounta
    Kounta is particularly well suited to small to medium sized hospitality businesses. It has a great many number of add-ons and integrations that enhance the user experience and its general usefulness from a back end perspective. For example, there is the ability to program automatic menu surcharges for certain circumstances, such as public holidays. It also handles bill-splitting well. It could possibly be less appropriate for venues that need extremely detailed sales data, or for those venues that have very complicated menus or ordering options.

    Cons
    Blackhawk Network
    • The main dashboard is not very useful for tracking your activity and spending
    • Website didn't seem super reliable. Would see downtime occasionally.
    • You can export reports to Excel but better built in reporting would be nice

    Usability
    Blackhawk Network
    Great overall. I like that I can control access levels, which means more people can use the tool without breaking something (or spending money on accident). Whenever I do have an issue, Daniel (my CSM) always helps me figure out a solution or the reason why it's a feature and not a bug

    Both are good products, I honestly have no complaints with either of them. Rybbon's integration with Qualtrics is a definite plus.

    Kounta
    We moved from Vend to Kounta because of Kounta's enhanced functionality for the hospitality domain. Vend was, at the time, more oriented towards the retail industry and so it lacked key features that would have allowed our business to grow and become more efficient. Over time, Kounta has continually improved and adapted to better suit its customers' needs.

    Return on Investment
    Blackhawk Network
    • Using the paid plan where you pre-pay fees up front definitely saved us money in the long run
    • It's a lot quicker and more manageable than using PayPal or Amazon gift cards
    • Their support team has probably also saved us time by helping recipients who have trouble redeeming cards instead of us having to do it
