Our take
Reward Gateway was founded in 2006 as an employee engagement company. With reports suggesting that despite the majority of CEOs recognising that employee engagement is vital to their success, very few say they have a highly engaged company, Reward Gateway set out to bridge this so-called "engagement gap".
By engaging employees, Reward Gateway promises companies increased productivity, communication, and employee satisfaction - helping them to retain their most valued employees. It sets itself apart from traditional HR solutions by bringing employee benefits, discounts, perks, rewards, recognition, wellbeing and feedback into a single unified hub.
In 2022, the company acquired Xexec and MoveSpring, both providers of employee wellbeing and rewards software, to further bolster its offering and capabilities. In 2023, it was itself acquired by Edenred, a worldwide leader in employee benefits, presenting Reward Gateway with the chance to expand into new regions while the two companies enhance their already comprehensive range of solutions.
