“We had a committee session yesterday that finalised 99% of the applications and the overall comment was how easy SmartyGrants had made this process.”
“The level of support we get from service@smartygrants is great. We have an open plan office and every time my guys get off the phone to your guys, they are smiling and know what they are doing.”
“Since yesterday midday when our grant program was launched we have received over 1800 applications, and so far we have approved about 1200, of which between 600 to 800 will be paid by the end of today.”
“We’d never used the program before and had to stand it up in breakneck speed. It was a resounding success and the system was so easy to use and made an impossible task possible.”
