10 reasons to offer gift cards:
- The gift card carries your brand with it as a personal recommendation from the buyer. Very possible that the recipient will become a new customer of yours by visiting your store to "get their present".
- Don't limit your customers to physical products with thresholds like geographical distance, delivery time and shipping cost.
- Pay now - buy later. The money is secured before the holidays while the gift recipient visits your store after the big shopping days with the chance of additional sales during the off-season.
- Chances are that the recipient will buy for an order value higher than the gift card because the own supplement is perceived as less money in the context.
- Fewer repurchases. There is a high risk that people will return their gifts and use open purchase after the holidays - with gift cards you minimize refunds from your store.
- Gift cards are a safe card. If your customers find it difficult to choose a suitable gift from you, they may choose something completely different instead. If you offer gift vouchers, there is a much higher chance of a sale.
- You can offer gift cards as an alternative refund within the repurchase period and also to create goodwill in case of late return attempts.
- Perfect last-minute gift - around the clock!
- The planet thanks you because gift cards are less likely to lead to wrong purchases and returns.
- Your customers are your best ambassadors, let them spread the word about your business!
