Our take
Financial difficulties continue to be a leading cause of employee stress, and waiting for payday can cause periods of cash drought where workers are vulnerable to overdraft fees and predatory lending. Rain provides employees with access to an amount of their earned wage, which is reimbursed by employers per their regular pay cycle.
Although paying employees more often seems a solution to the payday problem, it is often too demanding for payroll departments, and brings associated costs that companies would rather avoid. Rain is free to employers who offer it as a benefit for their employees, and it integrates with payroll systems easily. Instead of paying high interest on a payday loan, employees pay a small fee for the transaction when they access pay before payday.
Rain is backed by QED, an active investor in income streaming, which has invested in companies such as Credit Karma and ClearScore. The company has secured impressive investment that will fund its continued US expansion, further develop technology and infrastructure, as well as contribute to increasing marketing efforts.
