BHN Rewards vs. Zinrelo

I think Rybbon is a very good choice for a UX or Market research team. It's generally easy to use, easy to send gifts to almost any country, and their customer support is great. The only real weakness is in the reporting and dashboard. You'll have to do pretty much all of it in Excel. So unless that's very important to you, I can't really think of a better option than Rybbon.

Zinrelo is the perfect platform to reward frequent buyers, achieve larger AOV’s, and encourage your customers to become your marketing team. Because Zinrelo was not appropriate for our B2B relationships, direct integration with our e-commerce platforms would have allowed us to restrict its use to only eligible customers via the e-commerce customer type.

• Rybbon makes it easy to offer gift cards for survey responses
• Rybbon's integration with survey platforms like Qualtrics are a major plus
• Gift cards can be international, very important for any global company

• Customer service is fantastic.
• They are always asking for feedback, so that they can understand what is working well for us, and what isn't working well.
• They are pro-active and frequently offer suggestions to us, for promotions that they think would be worthwhile, and help us to keep shoppers coming back.

• 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

• Though perfectly functional, Zinrelo’s interface seems slightly dated and could use a visual update.
• Zinrelo should develop direct integrations with BigCommerce and NetSuite, so all Zinrelo account management can be handled within those platforms.
• Zinrelo should allow for custom reasons for the addition of points. Sometimes the the established reasons do not address the situation, and the flexibility to add custom reasons with reduce or eliminate the need to add notes to transactions.

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

We also looked at SweetTooth, prior to choosing Zinrelo. Zinrelo had a much smoother integration with our Netsuite System, however.

• 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

Incentivized

• Increased customer retention.
• Increased average order value.
