Rain

## What is Rain?

Rain is a 100% voluntary benefit offered by employers to their employees, enabling them to access a portion of their earnings as soon as they've earned them, instead of waiting for their company's scheduled pay day. Our 2M+ users take out fewer payday loans, face fewer overdraft and late fees, making them less financially stressed. Our 800+ employer-partners see a reduction in turnover and absenteeism, and receive more job applications.

I will be suggesting to my employer, the use of the app and possibly offering it as a benefit to attract workers.

Pros

I love how the app takes the initiative to educate the employee on finances, and the benefits of saving for a rainy day

Cons

That I no longer have access to the app due to a job change and my new employer does not offer this excellent benefit.

As a short term visitor (8 months) to South Africa I believed this to be the perfect solution to internet provider as they advertised as being easy to get it and then easy to cancel. I left South Africa 8 months ago to return home and they have ignored all requests to cancel.

Pros

Easy set up while they pretend that it will also be easy to stop.

Cons

Refused to cancel my account even though I advised them on numerous occasions R2217 later and I'm still trying to cancel

Review source

Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

My company changed their payroll schedule at the beginning of the year it this was helpful in managing the adjustment.

Pros

The app is very easy to set up and use and I can get my money fast in an emergency.
