Photo: Norell / Business Wire [AnyCard](https://giftcard.news/company/anycard/), [Lifestyle](https://giftcard.news/company/lifestyle-gift-cards/) and [Savvy](https://giftcard.news/company/savvy/) agreed on October 15, 2026 to come together under [Norell](https://giftcard.news/company/norell/), combining gift-card products and retail distribution with processing and reward-program technology. [Codex Capital](https://giftcard.news/company/codex-capital/) is providing new investment alongside the businesses’ existing investors. The announcement does not disclose the investment amount or a valuation. [\[S1\]](#article-source-1) The brands will retain their identities, specialist capabilities, market focus and teams under the parent group. The stated change is a shared corporate structure and investment backing, rather than a replacement card that customers must adopt. The statement describes an agreement and does not supply a separate legal closing date. [\[S1\]](#article-source-1) Lifestyle contributes multi-brand gifting and rewards in the UK and Ireland. AnyCard brings North American gift-card products, processing and distribution, while Savvy supplies processing and program expertise. The commercial proposition is to connect those capabilities across more client relationships; the announcement does not establish common pricing, a migration timetable or measured cross-selling results. [\[S1\]](#article-source-1)[\[S2\]](#article-source-2) Filed accounts give a more precise historical view of one participant. Lifestyle’s website identifies Motivates as the business behind the brand and carries company number 11319734, matching [Motivates Inc. Limited](https://giftcard.news/company/motivates-inc-limited/) at Companies House. The company’s strategic report explicitly describes its Lifestyle gift-card retail channel alongside corporate rewards and direct sales.
