Have been using rewards network for 3 years now and have a nothing but a positive experience.. started out with the marketing and seen an increase in business right away after a year they offered the upfront cash and that has been a big help as anyone in this business knows your constantly repairing or buying new equipment and renovating so to have that option comes in handy.. highly recommended giving them a try with everyone using credit cards it’s an incentive for your customers to get the points

Been with the Rewards Network for over a year and very satisfied with the marketing reach they have and the analytics they provide on their customer base. The support is also good when needed.

We have been working with Rewards Network to market our restaurants for almost a decade and they are one of the most reputable above board straightforward companies we have dealt with. I would highly recommend them and have two other small business owners in our industry.

I am currently a top performing AE at Rewards Network and I personally have hundreds of happy restaurant owners working with me. All volume we drive in is tracked and can be accessed through a merchant portal. Rewards Network is not used mostly by companies or organizations. They are regular consumers looking to keep their statuses high with the top loyally brands (Marriott, Hilton, etc.) Working with Rewards Network will not increase fixed expenses and typically will not increase food costs which means each customer is pure profit to the restaurant. 80% of incremental business is better than 0% of zero new business. Yes, Rewards Network will pre-buy the food/bev in advance. This is not a loan. This is like selling 1,000 rice bowls for $15 each instead of only one rice bowl for $20. This is the best way to work with Rewards Network. The little collected from tax & tip is minimal compared to the extra revenue which means you are stepping over dollars to pick up pennies if this is a concern. The dining member is rewarded on the total ticket amount with means they buy more and tip more. The exposure we provided also reaches non-rewards members which means customers that cost you nothing. Each dining member must go through a 3-step process in which they must provide all personal information such as credit card numbers, home address, etc. Most brands require the member to reactivate their card every 45-60 days which shows true attribution. Rewards Network dining members spend 10-15% more than non-members which means the marketing fees are in the single digits. The fees are also a tax write-off. The types of customers we drive-in are high spenders and frequent diners. Not coupon clippers or deal hunters. Even if they are a current customer or someone that happened to come in without knowing of the rewards beforehand, they will be contacted several times after there dine encouraging them to come back more often and spend more. That data speaks for itself and I have plenty of it. Overall, Rewards Network is the largest, most effective restaurant partnership in the US. Companies such as Marriott, Hilton, T-Mobile, and United Airlines would not allow Rewards Network to use their brand names if they were doing anything misleading to small business owners. There is no company that exists and does what Rewards Network does for restaurants. It is a win-win-win for the owner, consumer, and Rewards Network. It either works or it costs you nothing. It is easy for anyone to use the word “scam” when they do not understand something. I am guilty of this myself. I hope this helps shed light on the truth and I am proud of the remarkable success I have brought to the restaurants I work with. Feel free to contact me anytime to discuss the facts in more detail.

I own a restaurant that has been on the Rewards Network platform for over a year now and it has been a very good experience for us. I have seen a lot of negative reviews calling this a scam. I don’t understand why anybody would say that? The program is not free, so yes, it does cost you something, but any worthwhile marketing is probably going to, and this brings high quality customers and great name recognition with top-tier brands like Marriott and Southwest Airlines. The fact that they buy upfront is a huge advantage for us, and for many restaurants. This is not a loan because the money is simply being paid back through customer dines. I would recommend any restaurant give Rewards Network a try and judge for yourself how you enjoy the partnership. We’ve been happy!

I’m not an owner. I’m an employee of Rewards Network. I’ve worked for the company for 6 months. Coming from much larger companies, I can say that I’m impressed by the way our business operates. I’m honored to work for a company with integrity that truly has the best interest of the customer first! Thank you to the over 17,000 restaurant owners that we partner with. We are honored to work with you and grow your business!
