Which type of Gift Cards best suit your teams needs?
Statistics show that tailored rewards, such as gift cards, significantly enhance employee engagement and satisfaction. They’re not just incentives; they’re tools for building a positive workplace culture, where achievements are acknowledged and valued. Gift cards, with their broad appeal and practicality, stand out as a preferred option for both employers and employees alike.
The Wide World of Gift Cards: A Spectrum of Choices
Site-Specific Gift Cards
Site-specific gift cards grant access to a single website or a specific online service only. They’re perfect for digital subscriptions or e-commerce websites like Amazon or ASOS.
Store-Specific Gift Cards
Like our first example, store-specific gift cards allow recipients to make purchases from one specific retailer. From fashion outlets to hardware stores most retailers will offer their own gift cards nowadays.
Multi-Shopping Centre Specific Gift Cards
Offering a little more flexibility, these multi-centre gift cards offer a wider choice of shopping opportunities across various shopping centres around Ireland. It’s important to note that these cards can usually only be used in store and don’t permit online shopping.
Multi-Retailer Gift Cards
These card providers often have their own network of retailers who will accept their cards. They do offer more flexibility but can be limiting if certain stores within the advertised chain don’t accept gift cards or the recipient is struggling to find a store near them that they wish to purchase from.
Open-Loop Gift Cards
Open loop gift cards offer the ultimate versatility. Accepted wherever the brand (usually Mastercard or Visa) is welcomed, these gift cards give the freedom to spend on anything, anywhere, making them the perfect gift card option for just about anyone. Our SWIRL gift card is powered by Mastercard and can be spent at over 45 million locations worldwide! This covers both online and in store transactions and also covers hotels, restaurants, transport services and more!
