Rewriting The Payout Playbook
Runa powers the infrastructure behind modern payouts, making it easy for businesses to send money to anyone, anywhere, in an instant. From gift cards to global transfers, we turn disbursements into something better: fast, flexible, and built for what’s next.
We’re Building The Rails For The Future Of Payouts
Runa is pioneering a new kind of payment infrastructure—built to move money, rewards, and any asset instantly and at scale. With a single integration, developers can embed the ability to send, and hold money in any format, without building complex infrastructure from scratch. While the payments ecosystem rapidly evolves, most systems are still fragmented and disconnected. Runa bridges that gap—creating liquidity across payment types and giving businesses the flexibility to adapt, scale, and pay out on their terms. From mass payouts to consumer incentives, Runa empowers recipients to use what they’ve earned—how and when they want.

Bold Vision Meets Bolder Backing
Every Payout Has a Story.
Here’s Ours.
Runa was founded by Aron Alexander in 2016 as WeGift—an API-first platform that reimagined how businesses send digital gift cards.
What started with digital gift cards was never just about gift cards. It was about removing friction from global payouts—making it effortless for businesses to send funds, rewards, and incentives across borders, in an instant.
As demand grew, our platform continued to evolve. We expanded our network to over 2,000 merchant partners, became a trusted partner to the world’s most forward-thinking companies—enabling smarter, faster, and more flexible payout experiences.
In 2023, WeGift became Runa. Today, Runa powers the infrastructure behind modern payouts—enabling organizations to send a wide range of assets, including gift cards, prepaid cards, funds into bank accounts, and more. With a single integration, businesses can pay anyone, anywhere, instantly.
Headquartered in London with a remote team across Europe and North America, Runa is built by an executive team with deep experience scaling category-defining companies like Rapyd, Hyperwallet, Soldo and more.
