About Perkbox
Perkbox, helping employees succeed, in life and at work. Founded in 2015, the company has become one of the UK’s most-loved startups – supplementing its countless perks and employee benefits with services related to medical provision and card linked offers. The result is an extensive cloud-based platform, offering all the tools for attracting, engaging and retaining a workforce.
The Challenge
Gift cards have long been a part of Perkbox and its growth story. They remain one of the biggest transactional drivers of its recognition service, which is used to celebrate and acknowledge special contributions within a company. Their initial gift card offering consisted only of physical rewards.
Before Runa, Perkbox was buying up to 1 million pounds worth of gift cards in bulk and holding them in reserve. While many users habitually opt for these types of incentives, their delivery proved slower and more timeconsuming than they had hoped. Perkbox saw eGifting as an opportunity to scale the entire business.
“Digital rewards has offered big positives for both our clients and Perkbox. They formed part of our ambition to become more accessible, agile and transparent.”
