Gift Card Market Launches Groundbreaking New Technology to Simplify Local Gifting

Published

By

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Gift Card Market (thegiftcardmarket.com), based in Kansas City and Fort Myers, announced today at the Retail Gift Card Associations Forum event in San Diego the launch of a groundbreaking digital platform designed to simplify the process of sending gift cards to over 5 million local restaurants, spas, and salons. Consumers can now send local gift cards to their friends and loved ones effortlessly via text or email.

Until now consumers faced challenges finding gift cards for their favorite local businesses in one convenient location. The new Gift Card Market platform overcomes these obstacles by providing access to virtually all restaurants, spas, and salons anywhere in the US, and then enables gift cards for those businesses to be sent directly from a known contact, creating a more personal and meaningful experience.

“Consumers love sending gift cards for the amazing local restaurants that form the heart of our communities,” said Brett Glass, Founder and CEO of Gift Card Market. “They want a quick, secure, and easy way to deliver these gifts through a text message, within an existing conversation thread, to their loved ones.” This new “In the Moment” gifting capability allows consumers to instantly send thank you notes, acknowledge special occasions, or treat a friend while simultaneously driving traffic to local businesses.

With multiple patents pending, this new technology marks a significant leap from traditional gift card platforms, which often struggle to include local options. Gift Card Market has developed a dynamic, proprietary curation engine that customizes gift card options based on the local businesses chosen by the purchaser. 

Gift Card Market offers this service to local favorites at no cost to the merchants. Nicole Glass, President of Gift Card Market, stated, “Consumers equate food with love, and sending someone you care about to a beloved local gem is far more meaningful than giving a typical gift card.”

To expedite the rollout of its new technology, Gift Card Market has also partnered with Stored Value Solutions (SVS), a leader in the gift card industry. SVS will serve as their official launch partner, providing access to these local favorite restaurants for its existing clients. “SVS is renowned for its customer-centric approach and innovative solutions. We are excited to collaborate with the SVS team to bring a local focus to our industry,” said Brett Glass.

“We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Gift Card Market. This collaboration represents a significant step forward in our commitment to delivering innovative solutions to our clients and gift card consumers. Together, we will leverage our combined expertise to create exceptional value and drive growth in the industry. We look forward to working closely with Gift Card Market and are excited about the possibilities ahead,” said Jenny Parris, Chief Revenue Officer of SVS.

Users can discover local favorites through a simple search interface and enjoy streamlined sending options via text or email, backed by advanced fraud protection.

VANCOUVER, Oct. 7, 2024 /CNW/ — Governor Miguel Ángel Navarro Quintero of the state of Nayarit in Mexico announced today that the state is now the official Mexican Tourism Destination of the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League and their home game venue, Rogers Arena.

“We are very pleased to be able to partner with such an integral part of the Vancouver world,” said Navarro Quintero. “We invite Vancouverites to visit the state of Nayarit to embark on a journey filled with rugged, pristine beaches, lush landscapes, and vibrant cultural experiences.

“We are home to breathtaking scenery, rich culture, and warm hospitality,” the governor added. “Nayarit is always an unforgettable experience for travelers seeking relaxation, adventure, and exploration.”

“One of the great things about the game of hockey is its ability to unite people from diverse backgrounds, which makes this new partnership with the state of Nayarit so meaningful,” said Michael Doyle, President, Canucks Sports &Entertainment, Business Operations. “Our fans enjoy unforgettable experiences at Rogers Arena, and I’m sure they’ll also be eager to visit Mexico and immerse themselves in the stunning scenery and rich culture of Nayarit.”

The partnership with Canucks Sports & Entertainment (CSE) includes onsite events, signage across Rogers Arena, and social media promotions for VIP experiences with the team, among other elements of the campaign.

The partnership with CSE marks the second sports such alliance for Nayarit following its alliance with National Football League team the Dallas Cowboys, announced in late August. Both efforts comprise the initial part of the state’s historic entrance to the world of professional sports and tourism partnerships.

The campaign aims to benefit from the visibility these sports alliances will create and expose more potential visitors interested in exploring the varied tourism offerings found in Nayarit.
