Overview
Much more than just a gift card
For a simple way to promote your business and strengthen your brand image, prepaid gift cards are ideal. Improved cash flow, greater loyalty from customers and reduced risk of fraud compared to paper vouchers, are just some of the other benefits.
Besides increasing your customer base when recipients visit to redeem their cards, you can be confident that as long as your gift card is in their wallet, your customer plans to return. In addition to being used for presents for loved ones, our prepaid cards are ideal as:
- Refund and credit notes, keeping money in your business
- A budgeting aid for customers on a tight budget who are saving up for special occasions, such as Christmas
- Prizes in competitions, draws and other promotional campaigns
- Loyalty cards to reward frequent or high value purchases
- Part payment of products.
Greater flexibility to meet your individual needs
- Change the design of prepaid cards to fit in with your business branding.
- Pre-set denominations or let customers choose the credit they'd like to add.
Upfront payment for improved cash flow
Since you receive payment upfront every time a customer takes out a gift card, you're able to improve cash flow while earning interest on unused balances.
Easy to monitor for greater control
Keeping track of how prepaid cards are used is simple with online access to detailed Management Information (MI) reports. Even businesses with more than one branch can see exactly how each is performing, and view every customer's gift card balance.
Our MI reports make it easier to analyse customer spending patterns, forecast and plan your business strategy.
A better choice than paper vouchers
Unlike paper vouchers which can be easily forged, prepaid cards hold very little value before being credited. Since any remaining credit stays on the card, they can be used repeatedly so your customer keeps thinking about your brand long after they first signed up.
Customers will also appreciate the flexibility that comes with being able to buy gift cards with cash, credit and debit cards.
