Software Advice offers objective insights based on verified user reviews and independent product and market research. When our advisors match you to a software provider, we may earn a referral fee.

How Software Advice ensures transparency

Software Advice lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Users can talk to our advisors for free to receive software recommendations matching their needs. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to reach users interested in their products.

How Software Advice verifies reviews

Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Independent research methodology

Researchers at Software Advice use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or talk to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

Amazing vendor. Really make it seem so easy that it just works.

We have been working with them for over 4 years. They were there for us when we first started and we grew together over that time.

As a smaller company, they did not have the volume that would get the best rates and marketing spend from brands.

Pros:

We were able to implement Runa on our rewards SaaS platform very easily! We already had swag, and Amazon Business as reward options, but adding E-gift cards as seamlessly as we did was critical! Runa's API made this process very simple and scalable.

Cons:

It would be nice to add a few more gift card options.

Pros:

I love that Runa works well for remote companies like ours! It can be difficult to find gifting options available for remote companies and this one works great.

Cons:

I would really like for Visa gift cards to be available for all levels of the platform and its users. This would allow us to use Runa even more for employee recognition.

Useful and efficient product to combine with our financial payouts. Happy with Runa!

Overall, I have had no major issues with Runa. However there are some things that it could improve, see the box above. Overall better than any other gift card supplier I have ever used though.

Functionality

Pros:

- Bulk orders. Very quick to use the, and we use this a lot. This makes it very efficient for us to use.- The simple interface (in the dashboard.)- Very easy to make the order and pay (even though we have 3 different cards in the team).- Compared to paying out via amazon manually, saves us several minutes per day, which is great.

Cons:

- Should be easier to find an old gift card sent. We work with a lot of gift cards, and sometimes need to search to see if we ever sent them out, or if they have been redeemed (if not, we need to get a gift card link. So there should be a search bar in order history.- Bug: happened twice that we accidentally paid recipients more than once, as the site crashed, and then checking orders, turned out we sent gift card links twice. - That Amazon is only available in a very select location. For some European countries it would be great if we could pay out an Amazon gift card via Runa.- That now there’s a fee for every transaction. As we process a lot, this adds up.

Reasons for choosing Runa

Not sure, I wasn't part of the decision.

Reasons for switching to Runa

So that we could make it more easy to send in Bulk.

A Really Great Option For Incentives and Rewards

We've been using this product for the past couple of years, manly providing thank you gifts to clients for providing us with valuable information, like feedback on our product. It's very easy to use, and they've added several features that have improved the platform. It's a great choice.

Pros:

Runa is very easy to use, and their gift card selection is great. It's really easy to do one-off rewards, but you can also upload a list of people you want to send rewards to. I mainly generate reward links, but I like that you can also send reward emails right from the platform.

Cons:

Since there are so many brands to choose from, I'd like to be able to create my own brand groupings for gift cards. Runa lets you select any individual brand of gift card, and they have different preset groups, but being able to select and save the gift cards my customers would like the best would be handy.

Great Incentive Tool

Overall, I have really enjoyed using Runa with my team. It gets my team excited to push toward a goal and earn something that they actually want.

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I love Runa. It is easy to use and my team always requests that I use Runa instead of providing other incentives. I love that my team is excited about winning something that they can then go and pick exactly what gift card they want.

Cons:

Generally when I have orders to fulfill they are low in number but the amount for each card is different. I haven't tried using the bulk upload feature yet as my orders are generally less than 10 at a time. That being said, it does take me a bit of time to submit each order individually.

Perfect for Customers AND Our Staff

We use Runa daily and it is our absolute go-to for gift cards due to the simplicity of the ordering process, being able to look back at the history of the orders, and place bulk orders quickly and easily. It is great for our customers in various countries due to the number of currencies available and the extremely wide variety of retailers.

Pros:

I really like the ease and fluidity of ordering the gift cards. Being able to do one off purchases or bulk orders is excellent for saving time and is very low effort. The process is extremely straight forward and simple.

Cons:

There was one slight issue with some of the email addresses not transferring if customers were having the gift card delivered to another email address that means we are not able to see the email address linked with the account. Not a major issue but would be a very helpful feature if added.
