New salary deduction benefit product transforms salary sacrifice industry, enabling employers to offer employees the ability to purchase tech directly from their salaries with minimum administration
Reward Gateway, the leading employee engagement platform that delivers employee benefits, reward and recognition, and communications solutions, today announced it has partnered with Currys PC World to offer its UK customers the new net salary deduction benefit, SmartTech™, which lets customers buy the latest technology with interest free financing directly from their salary with minimal administration by their employer’s HR and finance teams.
Reward Gateway’s SmartTech™ is revolutionary in that company HR teams set pre-approved [purchases/purchase levels] for every user, so laptops, iPads and other devices available in the programme can be delivered or collected from a Currys PC World store up to same day.
SmartTech™ launches in the UK on 10th August 2016, after a successful pilot with Reward Gateway’s own employee base.

Supporting Quotes:
“We are thrilled to be launching SmartTech™ and working with Currys PC World, a much loved, trusted brand in the UK. The whole of Currys online store now sits within our technology, and we hope to deliver millions of incremental sales for them over the next 12 months. We’ve put a lot of thought into the product to develop a market-changing offering - it is our biggest salary deduction benefit to date."
“Our research showed that the traditional salary deduction benefits are cumbersome, slow, incur heavy admin or delivery costs and often don’t offer the latest products; but with the launch of SmartTech™, employees can order the latest technology, the cost of which is then automatically subtracted from their pay packet in regular amounts. Within 30 seconds, you can choose from up to 5,000 products, whether that’s the latest iPad or fitness tracker, and pay for it in an affordable way, direct from your salary.”
Richard Hurd-Wood, Chief Product Officer at Reward Gateway
“We always aim to offer our customers the latest products and by working with Reward Gateway, customers can purchase directly from their salary. It removes any pain points or hassle when ordering the latest tech and the early feedback has been fantastic.”
Glenn Sizer, Head of Prepaid Partnerships at Currys PC World
