Our take
Leading mobile shopping and loyalty platform Fetch has seen explosive success in recent years. Its concept is simple: users receive spendable points in exchange for scans of their shopping receipts.
The app has tens of millions of daily active users with even more downloads, and has seen impressive growth, having now reached 'unicorn' status twice over. This should come as no surprise. Brand reinforcement is crucial to customer retention and acquisition - but it is harder than ever, with the fragmentation of choice on the market and the declining efficacy of marketing. So material loyalty benefits are likely to prove a crucial tool in creating and leveraging a strong customer base.
Whilst Fetch faces competition from similar receipt-scan rewards platforms like ReceiptPal and Ibotta, it grew into a profitable company in late 2023. It is using its most recent Morgan Stanley-backed funding to aggressively add brand partners at a competitive pace and onboarding staff at a level that promises strong continued growth.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Fetch
Shonita Torry, SHRM-CP (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging Specialist )
- Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging are key areas of focus for Fetch as we grow.
- As we build a more DEIB focused organization it is every one of our jobs to become more inclusive in our thoughts, speech, decisions and actions.
- Diversity. The presence of a multitude of demographic differences within our teams.
- Equity. Promoting fairness while acknowledging the different needs of individuals within our organization as they pertain to our internal processes and procedures.
- Inclusion. Our focus on our employees' feeling they are respected, have agency and are able to participate and achieve to their goals.
- Belonging. The sentiments and feelings of psychological safety and support when inclusion is realized. Belonging occurs when there is an acceptance of individuals regardless of their intersections of identity.
- Our objective is for people of all identities to be included and represented across our organization. We practice inclusion and representation by amplifying voices, creating and maintaining respectful relationships, and cultivating an equitable workplace and community for all.
- To accomplish this objective, we've implemented New Hire INCLUSION orientation on day one.
- "My personal belief is that when a company leads with INCLUSION first, then Diversity, Equity, and Belonging will organically grow. This is what we are creating at Fetch - a CANVAS of INCLUSION. You get to help paint on this canvas." Shonita Torry SHRM-CP, DEIB Specialist
