[Runa](https://giftcard.news/company/runa/) reported adding more than 600 merchants to its gift card network during 2025 in a December 5 progress review that also covered prepaid cards, Pay to Card and payout administration. The company said customers had sent millions of payouts to recipients in 48 countries, with supermarkets, restaurants, travel, entertainment and home-related merchants among its leading categories.

The update highlighted its launch in India, with local payout choices including [Flipkart](https://giftcard.news/company/flipkart/), [Myntra](https://giftcard.news/company/myntra/) and [BigBasket](https://giftcard.news/company/bigbasket/). Runa described that expansion as part of its gift card network rather than treating the whole Indian market as company transaction volume.

Runa also reviewed changes to Pay to Card and the introduction of reloadable virtual prepaid cards. It said repeat payout tokenisation could avoid recipients entering card details again, while reloadable cards supported recurring funding.
