Its March 2025 recap describes the pressure companies face as potential distributors compare their earning experience with gig-economy work. The company reports that retention was a prominent concern among the executives it met. Delayed commissions, minimum payment thresholds and requirements linked to wider sales networks can create friction between completing work and receiving compensation. Runa outlines several approaches discussed in that context: more frequent payments, lower thresholds and ongoing recognition for active sellers. The objective is to make the compensation experience easier to understand and more consistent. Prepaid cards and gift cards appear as potential options within a broader payout strategy. Runa presents them as tools that may give distributors additional choice while allowing the organization to administer rewards or commissions through different channels. The recap also describes interest in real-time payment services. It says companies are looking for ways to modernize disbursement without replacing the relationship-based selling model on which their businesses depend. Runa says it is continuing discussions with direct selling businesses about access to earnings, more frequent compensation and payment methods that fit distributor needs. ## Sources and documents ExpandCollapse * [How Direct Selling Leaders Are Tackling Retention, Payouts, & the Gig Economy Challenge](https://runa.io/blog/direct-selling-summit?utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news) — Runa ## In this article ### Companies * [Runa](https://giftcard.news/company/runa/) Share [ ](https://x.com/intent/post?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Fruna-highlights-faster-distributor-payouts-at-direct-selling-summit-3ed4aa62a12e%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dx%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial&text=Runa%20highlights%20faster%20distributor%20payouts%20at%20Direct%20Selling%20Summit "X") [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Fruna-highlights-faster-distributor-payouts-at-direct-selling-summit-3ed4aa62a12e%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dlinkedin%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial "LinkedIn") [ ](https://wa.me/?text=Runa%20highlights%20faster%20distributor%20payouts%20at%20Direct%20Selling%20Summit%20https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Frewards-loyalty%2Fruna-highlights-faster-distributor-payouts-at-direct-selling-summit-3ed4aa62a12e%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dwhatsapp%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial "WhatsApp") ![Portrait of Maya Bennett](https://giftcard.news/images/variants/v1/maya-bennett-editorial-portrait-w320.webp) About the author ## [Maya Bennett](https://giftcard.news/author/maya-bennett/) Journalist — Rewards & Loyalty Maya Bennett covers customer loyalty, employee rewards and incentive programmes for Gift Card News.
