Here’s something not many people realise!
Across the UK, hundreds of thousands of companies offer employee discount schemes.
From big corporations to public sector organisations, it’s become a standard perk.
In fact:
- Around 6,000–8,000 large UK companies offer discount platforms
- Another 10,000–20,000 mid-sized businesses do the same
- Overall, up to 300,000 UK businesses provide some kind of employee perks
On paper, that sounds like a win.
👉 Millions of workers saving money every day, just for where they work.
But here’s the reality…
The system works… just not for everyone
Most of these schemes are built around:
- Office-based roles
- Large companies with HR departments
- Structured, full-time employment
And because of that, a huge part of the UK workforce gets left behind.
🧱 If you’re on-site
🔧 If you’re self-employed
🚧 If you’re in the trades
👷♂️ Or working for a small firm
You probably don’t get access to anything.
No perks.
No platform.
No discounts.
The people keeping the country running are overlooked
This is the part that doesn’t sit right.
The people working long days…
In all conditions…
Keeping projects moving, businesses running, and the country functioning…
👉 Are often the same people not being rewarded at all.
While others are saving on:
- Shopping
- Holidays
- Everyday spending
Grafters are still paying full whack.
And it’s not a small group
We’re not talking about a niche here.
There are millions of workers across the UK who fall into this gap:
- Tradespeople
- Construction workers
- Mechanics
- Farmers
- HGV drivers
- Self-employed workers
- Small business teams
A huge, loyal, hard-working part of the country…
👉 With little to no access to the same benefits others take for granted.
That’s where GrafterCard comes in
GrafterCard is being built to change that.
Not another generic platform.
Not something buried in an HR portal.
👉 A discount platform built specifically for the UK workforce that’s been overlooked.
Designed for:
✔️ Tradespeople
✔️ Self-employed workers
✔️ On-site teams
✔️ The backbone of Britain
Because reward shouldn’t depend on your job title
At the end of the day, it’s simple.
It shouldn’t matter:
- Who you work for
- How big your company is
- Or whether you sit behind a desk or work on the tools
👉 If you put the graft in, you should get something back.
We’re building something bigger than discounts
This isn’t just about saving money (although that matters more than ever right now).
It’s about:
- Recognition
- Fairness
- And building a community around the people who keep things moving
Because for too long, this group has been overlooked.
And we’re not letting that continue.
