Rucards Launches Rewardifi Gift Card Rewards Platform

The commercial significance lies in the work around a gift card: deciding who receives value, approving a budget, recording the allocation and following redemption. Bringing those steps into one service gives Rucards a potential role in a customer's recurring operations, beyond supplying the reward itself.

From voucher supply to programme operations

Rucards says it was founded in 2021 and operates across prepaid cards, gift cards, brand vouchers and corporate expense management. Its business-to-business-to-consumer model connects corporate buyers with the people using those products. Expense tracking, spending limits and reporting are already part of the company's stated offering, making programme administration an adjacent activity. [S03]

Rewardifi's public product description shows how the new proposition works. A business creates a separate workspace, assigns roles and spending limits, then allocates points that recipients can exchange for gift cards. Approvals, allocation histories and exportable records sit alongside the catalogue. The website illustrates employee wallets; those examples are not evidence of actual customers or transaction volumes. [S02]

For an employer, the potential benefit is less reconciliation between a rewards decision and its fulfilment. For the supplier, becoming the place where that decision is administered can create repeated use of the service. Both are reasons the design may appeal commercially, rather than demonstrated savings or retention gains.

Usage-based pricing explains the business opportunity

Rewardifi's current pricing FAQ says charges are based on usage, including redemption, issuance, API calls or active users, rather than fixed seat licences.

Rucards has launched Rewardifi, extending its prepaid-card and voucher business into software for allocating rewards and managing gift-card redemption.
