Rewards infrastructure for AfricaCorporate meal programmes
Run one meal programme across your workforce.
Bring meal budgets, employee eligibility, participating merchants, Meal Pass access and programme reporting into one managed employer experience.
How it works
From meal budget to employee usage, in one operating model.
RibiRewards connects the employer, employee and merchant sides of the programme so a recurring meal benefit does not become a collection of spreadsheets, reimbursements and disconnected suppliers.

Merchant acceptance
A benefit only works when employees can actually use it.

The payment moment
Meal Pass becomes real at checkout.
Employees use their allocated meal value with approved merchants while the programme keeps the transaction tied to the employer-funded benefit.
Built for Africa
Coverage shaped around where your people are.
Programme availability and merchant coverage vary by market. RibiRewards designs deployments around the countries, cities and workforce locations the employer needs to support.
The Meal Pass system
One programme. Six connected parts.
Employer control, employee access, merchant acceptance, workforce coverage and the payment moment work together as one Meal Pass experience.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is a corporate meal programme?+
It is an employer-funded programme that provides eligible employees with meal value under defined rules and an agreed merchant acceptance model.
Can one programme support multiple employee groups?+
Yes. Different groups can be configured around agreed allowance values, locations and programme rules.
Can the programme cover multiple sites?+
That is a core use case. Coverage planning can be shaped around the offices, sites and workforce locations the employer needs to support.
Is Meal Pass an open-loop bank card?+
No. Meal Pass is designed around participating and approved food merchants rather than universal card-network acceptance.
