Gift Cards
We produce Gift Cards to two recognised international standards, M6+ and M6c. Both may be hung on standard Euro Pegs or Euro Hooks or displayed vertically using our Checkout Dispensers.
The M6+
This copyright protected Gift Card style is our preferred design. Almost all of our client partner's Gift Cards meet the M6+ standard. The M6+ card provides the following benefits to the client partner, the retailer and the customer:
- Adaptable - suits all types of displays
- Secure - Reduced theft and damage - compared with Gift Cards glued to cardboard backer
- Clean - No glue means no contamination of EPOS terminals
- Durable - No accidental separation of the Gift Card from the cardboard backer
- E-Footprint - made from recyclable materials
- Versatile - Easy to include as a gift within a standard greeting card
The M6c
This style of Gift Card has all the benefits of the M6+ and is useful when stocks of CR80 cards exist or where the retailer needs to use a CR80 card.
Card production
We recommend that you ask Livewire Intelligent Media to produce your Gift Cards. Livewire are our sole supplier of cards and provide a full design and production service using M6+ or M6c cards. They have the most experience of producing stunning Gift Card designs. You will find their service to be speedy, reliable and cost-effective.
Approvals
We will work with you throughout your Gift Card design and production phase. This means you will benefit from our wide experience to steer the new design to a successful conclusion. We will also help you develop the Gift Card's encoding and data fulfilment. This will ensure the manufacture of test and live Gift Cards that will work correctly at the retailers.
Quantity and cost issues
We advise our client partners on quantity as this depends on the display type and number of retailers. As a rule of thumb, each Gift Card peg holds an average of 20 cards. We produce an extra 25% as replenishment stock for holding at our distribution centre.
By producing millions of Gift Cards each year, you can be sure that you are getting the best value whether ordering just one or one million cards.
