For uniform and laundry buying groups
Buying powerfor people who never had any.
Their employers are too small to negotiate for them. Your group can.
Your members' drivers already visit thousands of small businesses every week. Now every worker at every stop can keep your group's deals on their phone: health, insurance, phone plans and more, at member rates.

Home Screen & Wallet
One tap away.On the home screen. In their Wallet.
Apple Wallet or Google Wallet is the fastest way in: two taps and your member laundry is on their phone. The Candle then guides them onto the home screen, where your member laundry can reach them when it matters.
- 1Into their Wallet in two taps
The fastest way onto the phone. The card carries your member laundry's name and a button that opens your Candle.
- 2Guided to the home screen
Inside the Candle, arrows show exactly where to tap to save it to the home screen. On Android it goes straight to the home screen.
- 3Reach them when it matters
From the home screen, your member laundry can send a few timely notifications: open enrollment, a new member deal, a holiday savings week. Kept to what matters, so wearers keep them on.
