Attract more participants with this quick and easy incentive.

Pleasing study participants just got a whole lot easier. With a CommCard, you give participants the power to choose from local businesses they already love–whether it’s their favorite coffee shop, a bookstore, or their go-to lunch spot.

And the best part? Purchasing and distributing CommCards takes just minutes. You can even schedule-send your gifts in advance, so they land right when your study wraps up.

Bring your faculty, staff, and community closer together.

Faculty and staff love receiving your local CommCard as:

  • Employee rewards
  • Anniversary celebrations
  • Recognition for awards, publications, tenure
  • and more!

Best of all, your local businesses will love to see your school engaging with the off-campus community.

Deliver a flexible meal plan solution to students.

Don't have a standard dining plan on campus but have the budget for student food support? Setting up a CommCard to help students get food means:

  • Convenience with our quick set-up and easy redemption process
  • Choice for students to eat at restaurants they already know and love
  • Accountability so you can track where funds are getting redeemed
  • Relationship-building with the local community

"It’s so easy! I just send Yiftee the list every year, and they take care of everything else. Their response time is super fast, and employee feedback has been universally positive."

– Lashonda Taylor
Associate Chief of Staff

"Yiftee encouraged me to engage in the community. I live an hour away from campus, so it's tempting to just head straight home after work. This made me stop and actually explore local businesses that I haven't been to in a long time or some never. Now, I use these businesses more often."
