Marqeta + Whistle: Embedded Finance for employee loyalty

Marqeta
We recently announced that we’re working with Whistle, an employee loyalty platform, to power a digital, rewards wallet that helps customers improve employee retention and productivity – in some cases by more than 25% in a few months - showcasing the power of embedded finance. 
At the heart of the Whistle platform is a digital, rewards wallet powered by Marqeta. The reward and incentive technology has proven so effective, Whistle launched Whistle Rewards, a Reward-as-a-Service API that is among the easiest ways for software platforms to integrate rewards and incentives with any workflow. Technology companies from healthcare to construction are leveraging this new capability.
“It's remarkably easy for our clients to send a reward, buy lunch for a remote team, or give everyone a budget to make a charitable contribution,” said Drew Carter, CEO of Whistle. “We are changing how companies build culture, reward employees, and motivate teams. Marqeta plays a critical role in making that experience effortless.”
