About 

Employee engagement business Reward Gateway saw substantial UK and international growth with EBITDA and headcount quadruple during its Inflexion investment before its sale to a US buyer generated 7.7x money. 

Reward Gateway was founded in 2006 and went on to become a leading provider of mobile-optimised SaaS employee engagement software used by corporate HR departments to attract, engage and retain their talent. The company’s services power employee benefits, recognition and communications on behalf of more than 1,100 of the world’s top employers, including American Express, Discovery, AOL and IBM. The business was sold to Great Hill Partners in the US. 

Value acceleration 

Throughout our four-year stewardship of Reward Gateway, we worked closely with the management team to enhance the company’s product suite and expand its international reach. Reward Gateway acquired two businesses, one of which doubled the size of the company in Australia. Further international expansion saw the company open a US office in 2014 while continuing to grow market share in the UK through client retention and new client wins.
