Easy to use and straightforward.

Easy to use and straightforward. I enjoy using it with my customers to help explain and physically break down barriers. This helps to show a visual of what they maybe entitled to and how it can help them moving forwards. You can also use it to show future progression and how they can be benefitted through promotions and future changes to their earnings. Reviewed on: 7th April 2026
