Below is our recent interview with the team from Gift Card Market:
Q: Could you provide our readers with a brief introduction to your company?
A: Gift Card Market makes it easy for consumers to gift instantly at nearly EVERY local favorite—12+ million restaurants, spas, salons, even auto, home, and personal services—all from one simple site. Craving that burger spot, the coffee shop down the street, or your go-to nail salon? We’ve got them. Send a gift in seconds by text, drop it straight into Apple or Google Wallet, and it’s ready to tap and pay. Visit GiftCardMarket.com to discover your favorite local places—because supporting local feels good and gifts even better.
Q: Can you tell us something more about your latest announcement?
A: The ability to send local digital gift cards to any restaurant, spa or salon has never been available until now. And with GCM’s proprietary technology, the new ability to send digital gift cards to any personal service provider is an absolute game changer in the gift card industry – and it is only available through Gift Card Market!
Q: What are your plans for the next 12 months?
A: Our plans are to provide value and meaningful opportunities for everyone to send instant local gift cards to friends and family, especially this holiday season! We are working to provide even more than our current 12M+ businesses nationwide. We are bringing on new partners who will provide visibility and opportunity to more people to send local gift cards to any restaurant, spa, salon, or service provider. We are working to expand our gift card technology to other countries as well.
Q: What is the best thing about your organization that people might not know about?
A: Most people don’t realize that Gift Card Market is making national-level distribution accessible to local restaurants and small businesses for the first time. We’re breaking down the barriers that kept independent brands off the rack. It provides an instant solution for millions of businesses to redeem gift cards that otherwise would not be able to. They simply transact Gift Card Market gift cards like any other credit card, or as Google or Apple Pay. It has completely changed the way individuals and businesses send and receive gift cards. We are hyper-focused on providing meaningful gifting opportunities that also support our local communities.
