ADVANTAGES OF CARDS COMPARED TO PAPER CERTIFICATES
INCREASE SALES
Consumers prefer the convenience and flexibility of cards over paper certificates. Often times purchases made are over the value of the card and about 85 percent of gift cards are used within 60 days. Additionally, cards that are never utilized (lost or forgotten) represent 100% profit to the merchant.
ENHANCE MARKETING
As a result of their marginal cost, merchants can use gift cards as promotional tools and give them away to boost customer traffic. Gift cards also serve as miniature billboards when in the hands of consumers, promoting the merchant’s brand and reminding them of their products and services.
ELIMINATE CASH BACK
Unlike traditional paper certificates, the balance on the card is automatically updated with each use. This process eliminates the need for merchants to provide a cash reimbursement to their customers for the remaining value of the card. Gift cards can also be reloaded with additional value, making them an ideal tool to promote repeat shopping.
PREVENT FRAUD
Gift cards offer superior security compared to paper certificates since they have no value until they are activated at the terminal. Lost or stolen cards that have not been loaded have no value and gift cards cannot be duplicated or photocopied.
IMPROVE RECORD KEEPING
Rather than manually recording the value of paper certificates, merchants will be able to issue and redeem gift cards electronically through terminals. The merchant can also track issued cards by emailing and requesting a liability report.
