With the Holidays approaching, businesses need to take advantage of the season’s shoppers and find a cost-effective way to drive new customers and get the regulars back in. POS gift cards have been widely used to boost revenue or maintain loyal customers.
Gift cards make the perfect solution:
- They can help ramp up sales and expose your business to new potential customers
- They can be used as a powerful reward incentive for special promotions.
- They account for 18% of all holiday purchases, and are frequently given to friends and family.
- People who receive gift cards as presents typically spend $29 more than the money they spend on the gift card, according to research from the National Retail Federation.
Which POS System do you use?
Point of sales systems usually provide their own proprietary solution for POS gift cards, but setting up these systems require extra effort, expenses, and training, not to mention the many questions and frustrations that arise with the topic of integration. Not only that, but POS
systems usually serve the physical gift card audience – plastic cards require POS integration that can be time consuming.
