Attempted to utilize Bento for Business to assist with fund management with employees whom are mobile. The system would assist with purchasing of fuel and supplies while out of the office. The system would not only assist technicians with the ability to make purchases, allow admin to control purchases, and consolidate the finances of the company.

  • Better Signup Process
Bento for Business is a poorly run company that has horrible customer service. The signup process is extremely difficult which is backed by demanding staff. When staff is asked why documentation is denied, they will simply deny your application. These folks down at Bento for Business are not to be messed with as they will deny your application also. The free trial is a must have for their service as they couldn't charge for such service.
  • Poor Customer Service
  • May leave your company stranded
  • Will frustrate you
If you are looking for prepaid business care or a business expense card, I highly do not recommend using Bento for Business. Do yourself and your business a favor and use a more customer service orientated services such as Pex, Wex, or Expensify. Bento for Business is bad business. Just don't do it.
