Gift Cards for Local Businesses

— Giftbar Team

Giftbar is providing digital gift card services to communities affected by COVID-19. We are working directly with cities and Chambers of Commerce to give merchants technology to offer gift cards to their clients where social distancing would have prevented sales for these highly-impacted businesses.

Giftbar's Economic Recovery Platform is described as a "one stop shop" to purchase electronic gift cards for local businesses.

One of the benefits for local businesses is that they can use Giftbar as another resource to make ends meet and preserve the livelihood of the community during this time.

We're grateful to offer yet another way to serve the community, connect businesses with their clients, and to keep it local.
