GiftCard: The modern alternative to a gift certificate

​With GiftCard, the electronic voucher, you can strengthen your customer loyalty, increase your turnover as well as gain access to the largest and most promising market in the prepaid domain.

Electronic gift cards instead of paper gift certificates
GiftCard is the modern cashless payment means. Thanks to the attractive designs and the practical credit card format, it appears more valuable than a paper gift voucher. You can offer customers your GiftCard without the need for any additional investment, as GiftCard transactions are handled on your existing payment terminal.

The potential of gift cards in Switzerland is tremendous. Our GiftCard solution makes both handling and adminis-tration several times more efficient than paper gift vouchers. What’s more, studies show that merchants book major increases in turnover in this segment. The main advantages of GiftCard are:

  • No transaction or commission costs
  • No licensing fees
  • No pre-financing and no risk, as card is not loaded until sold
  • Minimum investment (one-off activation fee, intrinsic value of the cards and gift packaging)
  • Clearly listed reports (outstanding amounts, number of cards in circulation)
  • Remaining balances credited to you after 24 months


Customer retention and acquisition
Experience shows that customers with your GiftCard tend to visit your store again and again. You also have the opportunity to attract customers that you would not otherwise reach, primarily through existing customers who give a GiftCard to their family, friends or acquaintances.
 
Personalize your GiftCard with your company’s look and feel
Create your own design for your GiftCard and present your company in a more individual way to your customers.

 How it works

 
  1. You order your GiftCard once the contract has been signed.
  2. You receive your personal login data for the online portal, where you can upload your company name or company logo for standard cards. Here you can already see what the GiftCard will look like. If you have ordered cards with an individual design, you will receive a proof for approval. Please note that the cards are not produced until all data has been entered and payment received.
  3. We send you the ordered cards by mail – and you can start selling.
  4. Your customer buys a GiftCard and pays for it like any other item, using whatever means of payment is preferred (credit card, debit card or cash).
  5. You activate the GiftCard by entering the desired amount on your terminal or cash register. Activation takes place via the terminal. If this is successful, a receipt is printed showing the amount loaded together with the expiry date.
  6. Shopping with the GiftCard is done in the same way as with other payment cards, although the customer does not need to enter a PIN code or provide a signature when using a GiftCard to pay.
