Marieke Deman
As a committed professional and mother of three children aged 8, 10 and 13, Marieke has learned to get straight to the point. A few months after the launch of the Edenred Engagement solution by the architectural firm where she works, she became an enthusiastic user. The reason? A welcome boost to her daily life and purchasing power.
"The Edenred Engagement platform has brought a breath of fresh air into the company, offering us tools that we were previously unfamiliar with.
A communication module, to receive internal news; a recognition module, to reward individual and collective performance - sometimes with a gift. A well-being module, with practical content on diet, sport and health. And above all, my favorite module: a catalog of hundreds of discounts on all kinds of purchases and activities.
For me, shopping is not a pleasure in itself. For certain purchases, such as clothes and food, I prefer local shops. For everything else, I now have a reflex: the Edenred Discounts app, which I scroll through regularly in search of inspiration.
It allows me to make savings, big and small, in every aspect of my daily life.
There's even a counter that tells me in real time how much the app has already saved me.
Last Sunday, for example, the five of us went to the cinema together and I saved 2 euros per ticket. Next summer, we're planning a trip to the Ardennes, and I already know I'll get the best price with a discount on the vacation village we've chosen. Even my children are getting in on the act and love to browse the app for bargains.
My next big purchase is already in sight: our stove is seriously starting to show signs of weakness, and I've spotted a model with a 25% discount.
What I also appreciate is that this kind of information is easily shared between colleagues. We often discuss our experiences and exchange tips over the coffee machine. It's a simple way of optimizing your budget without depriving yourself, while strengthening our bonds!"
