Gift Cards
Attract new customers and keep current customers coming back
Gift Cards are one of the most overlooked opportunities for business’s to grab the attention of new customers as well as keep current customers coming back.
Prepaid & Refund Retention
Medical and legal practices sell prepaid services. Businesses issue gift cards instead of refunds (where allowed) – which keeps more money in your register.
Community & Cross-Promotions
Community associations, such as chambers of commerce and downtown development authorities, provide gift cards from local businesses to welcome new businesses and homeowners to the community. Some companies might partner with other businesses for cross-promotional opportunities using your gift cards as incentives to shop locally.
Customer Recovery Comp Cards
Another avenue gift cards provide is being used as “comp cards”. If a guest has a sub par experience a comp card gives you another chance to earn their business.
