FlexxPay And Merit Incentives Partner To Lead Employee Benefits & Engagement In The GCC And Mena Region

Dubai/Riyadh-based social impact company FlexxPay, and Merit Incentives are combining forces to offer a comprehensive employee benefits platform to their corporate clients in the GCC and MENA region. The companies signed a cooperation agreement with the intention to combine their sales and marketing efforts while integrating their service offerings on each other’s respective platforms.

FlexxPay is a cloud-based solution that employers can offer to their employees to help overcome financial shortfalls between paydays and to provide them with additional benefits. With FlexxPay, employers can directly invest in their most valuable asset – their employees. The solution comes at no cost to the employer and there is no system integration needed.

Merit provides rewards and incentives worldwide and offers SaaS employee engagement & sales incentives technology solutions to corporate clients and SMEs. Companies can issue points to reward employees’ best behaviours. Points can be redeemed by employees for gift cards, merchandise, as well as non-monetary rewards and experiences. Companies can also set up a complete white-label employee engagement platform with Merit.

FlexxPay and Merit Incentives both target corporates that have a strong interest in providing unique benefits to their employees through technology, to increase engagement, productivity and retention.    

Commenting on the agreement between the two companies, Michael Truschler, co-Founder and CEO of FlexxPay said, "Our vision at FlexxPay is to become the top choice for companies in the GCC, MENA and worldwide when they are in search of a solution to increase employee motivation and productivity. We enable employers to give their employees access to a portion of their already earned salary whenever they need it. Through Merit Incentives we add valuable benefits to our platform in the form of gift cards, discounts at various retailers and restaurants and allow mobiles top ups anywhere in the world. That’s exactly what our customers are looking for. They want to increase employee motivation, productivity, and retention.  We are very excited about this new partnership."

The partnership with FlexxPay enables us to add a unique value proposition to our existing clients and prospects. Merit and FlexxPay have the same target audience, territories and complementary products – so it simply makes sense to combine forces."
