I always hold back giving product reviews until I've used the product long enough to ensure it functions as advertised and I haven't found any bugs. And in the case of Bento, works perfectly!

It'd be nice to be able to initiate fund transfers on the go. Would be nice if the money moved a bit faster, but otherwise it'd nice

Everything has worked fine for us. We have foreign (Germany) volunteers working for us. We are only allowed to provide $400 per mo per diem...no salary. We issue each volunteer a card with a $400 limit per month. This allows us to easily provide the per diem without having to hand out cash (they do not have bank accounts as they are non-citizens) and they don't need to carry around cash. Bento also provides reports so I can easily track and book. The only hitch is common to all credit/debit cards and that is purchases made on the card late on the last day of the month not appearing until the next day (new month). But that is not a big deal. Also, loads may take a couple of days to post. That is not a big deal either but does prevent the app from being perfect. I do recommend the app if you think it will meet your requirements.

John, your business model is one of the reasons we created Bento in the first place, and we will continue to refine and enhance our platform to make it easier for you to manage your business. Thank you for your recommendation. It's the best compliment.

When activating the card, the initial money was on the card immediately. Why, then does it take three days or a visit to my bank to make it go faster? This adds a step-it is great when money is on there, but what if they need a larger lump sum for tools,etc?
Response from Bento for BusinessAug 25, 2017
Frankie, we strive for speed, and we do understand your frustration, but we are in fact constrained by the banking system, outside of our control. That said, we are working within the system to find ways to make it faster to move money, and we plan to keep you posted when we have new options. Appreciate the time you took to speak up.
