Would not recommend

They provide us with a card similar to a 'mastercard' yet they can't guarantee where it will be accepted which defeats the whole purpose. Additionally, they can't transfer the balance of a card to your bank account, unlike other providers, so from an end user perspective its not something I would recommend. Just give cash instead.

Perx cards are ridiculously complicated…

Perx cards are ridiculously complicated to use. Trying to find a balance or register a card feels like an episode of “The Crypto Factor” instead of a simple gift card experience. They keep changing or requesting new passwords, adding layer after layer of pointless security steps that nobody asked for.
A gift card should be quick and convenient. Perx have managed to turn it into a frustrating, time–wasting mess. Avoid if you want something straightforward.

I'd rather pay 45 tax on a bonus than torture myself my staff with their trickery.

Great corporate sales team, dedicated to help on the phone and via email. The Perx Reward product is simply second to none. Having a dedicated Mastercard to use around the World is simply amazing. Well done all!

Unhelpful Customer Service

I have always used the PERX cards however i will not be using again. I rang this morning to see if i could change my physical card to a digital as many shops now don't have terminals that accept the swipe option therefore not practical in many situations. There really should be a pin option if this is the case as it limits where you can use them. On ringing first i was told that i should contact my employer as my name did not match , i advised i was the employer. Therefore my employees would have been diverted back to me. It was clear the caller took the number of my card down incorrectly and i had to prompt further for her to recheck. My details were then verified and i was just advised that this was not an option. Very unhelpful and i advised that i wouldn't be using perx this year for my employees. I have been advised that Clevercards is a good alternative so we will try these this year.

Activation Issue Quickly Sorted

Ellie and Hayden promptly sorted out my issue with activating my Perx card, I had issue with getting the surname correct as I have an apostrophe in my second name which caused problems as I was using wrong character. They correctly identified this issue quickly, even updating me on the weekend, and now my card is ready to go.

Perx card is a terrible service

Perx card is a terrible service, I have received their cards multiple times from work. It has never once worked the way it is supposed to and it is always a massive hassle to activate a card, or do anything with this company. How they are still in business, I do not know.

Service was quick and helpful

I'm not usually one to leave reviews, but I felt the service that I received from Perx warranted recognition. After contacting Perx's support team via email I received a prompt reply with clear, actionable steps. Each email I sent received a response in less than 2 hours and the case was resolved quickly. Great service, no complaints.
