Key soundbites from the webinar:
“The more we hear is that people want benefits to be targeted and this is why the traditional sort of cash incentives [..] are shifting to intelligent incentive packages people want to be able to take some control over.”
Duncan Kennett – Head of Employee Benefits, Visa
“What we’ve delivered through a spendable card within our platform is a reward and recognition structure based on hero points. Hero points are earned. Then you can spend those through the spendable card that’s fully traceable.”
Rob Dunn – General Manager, Employment Hero

What to expect from the research

Flagging employee adoption of benefits, low awareness and general apathy. It’s tough to design packages that move the needle and ultimately deliver against business needs. Our research highlights what benefits managers are aiming to achieve:
- 21% of benefits managers to give employees more choice in how to redeem benefits allowances
- 22% are seeking to deliver more relevant benefits
- 58% want to be able to better configure and control their benefits offerings
A shift in employee expectations, plus underlying budgetary pressures, push benefits managers to search for new benefits software that helps them respond. Our recommendation is that, by incorporating spendable benefits cards, the builders of benefits platforms can help their end users – the HR and benefits managers – to enhance the flexibility and relevance of their offerings and also deliver a personalised experience for employees.
