The digital gift card

The digital gift card – your new best friend!

A giftcard for your restaurant might just be the perfect gift – and you can make it easy for your customers. There are a lot of advantages because it’s digital. Your costumers have the opportunity, at any given time, to go to your website and buy a giftcard. This provides a flexibility because the customer doesn’t have to go to your restaurant physically within your openinghours.

That can be an advantage if one of your customers wants to give a gift card as a present. Maybe the giver of the gift card lives in Manchester and your restaurant is in London. This makes the whole process a lot easier because the customer can go to your website and order it with ease. In addition, you avoid the handling of the physical gift cards because, one way or another, they have to be handed over to the customer. In that way you’ll save a headache.

As the icing on the cake, the customer also has the option of personalizing gift cards by e.g. to write a small greeting to the person who will receive the gift card.

Why is this a smart thing for you?

It is also an advantage for you as a restaurant owner to be able to offer digital gift cards. It can help you to increase your visibility and attract new customers, because you make it easy for them to buy a gift card from you, via your website. It can help increase your turnover and help improve the customer’s experience.

In addition, it’s super easy for you, because you don’t have to deal with physical gift cards. They can end up being lost and this can give your customers a bad experience – not necessarily because it is your fault, but because the customer can end up associating the lost gift card with a lost experience in your restaurant. That’s why the digital gift card is so smart. Your customers have the opportunity to receive it by mail, and you can always look it up in your system based on some information. In this way, it becomes a more smooth operation.
