Benefits Scattered Across Channels
Discounts and wellness offers were announced through emails, flyers and separate vendor portals with no single place employees could check.
HR TECHNOLOGY & EMPLOYEE BENEFITS MVP CASE STUDY
Turning A Scattered Perks List Into One Benefits Experience Employees Actually Use
Company-sponsored discounts, wellness offers and corporate perks were spread across flyers, one-off emails and vendor sign-up links employees rarely found. We designed and built an MVP marketplace that puts every approved benefit in one place, from initial concept to a validation-ready release.
▣ Concept To Validation-Ready MVP A greenfield benefits marketplace was scoped, designed and built for a first employee rollout.
♙ One Place For Every Approved Perk Discounts, wellness offers and corporate benefits now live in a single employee-facing catalog.
✦ Built Around Employee & HR Roles Employees browse and redeem while HR administrators manage what gets published and to whom.
Making Company Benefits Easy For Employees To Find And Use
Employers negotiate real value on behalf of their people, from wellness memberships to retail discounts, but that value is only useful if employees can find it. Without a shared place to look, offers get buried in old emails or forgotten entirely, and HR teams have no easy way to see what employees are actually engaging with.
The benefits marketplace brings every approved offer into a single connected experience, giving HR teams control over what is published while making it simple for employees across locations to discover and claim the benefits available to them.

The Challenge
No Visibility Into What Employees Use
HR teams had no consistent way to see which benefits employees actually noticed or redeemed, making it hard to plan future offers.
Starting From A Blank Slate
There was no existing platform to build on, so the marketplace, roles and redemption flow needed to be defined and validated from the ground up.
What We Can Identified
A benefits marketplace centered on easy discovery for employees and simple offer management for HR teams.
Approved Benefits Catalog
Employees browse discounts, wellness products and corporate offers already vetted and approved by their employer.
Employee Eligibility Profiles
Access to specific benefits reflects each employee's role, location or tenure, so offers stay relevant to who sees them.
Simple Redemption Flow
Employees claim a benefit in a few steps instead of hunting for a code or a sign-up link buried in old email.
HR Offer Management
HR administrators publish, update and retire benefit listings without depending on engineering support.
Category-Based Browsing
Employees explore benefits by category, such as wellness, retail or family offers, to find what matters to them faster.
Engagement Overview For HR
HR teams see which benefits are being viewed and claimed, supporting better decisions about future offers.
