Givex gift cards now certified with Omniterm

Jan 25, 2010

Point-of-sale provider Omniterm Data Technology Ltd. and Givex, a global provider of closed-loop card technologies including gift, loyalty and other stored-value programs, announced the successful integration of Givex gift card technology to Omniterm POS.

“A gift of movie tickets presents many potential pitfalls,” says Brittain Brown, Givex VP, marketing and product management. “The giver risks picking a movie or time that clashes with the recipient’s preferences. A gift card, however, allows the recipients to choose for themselves.”

“A customer can choose from many cinemas to watch a movie,” says Darrin Lewis, Omniterm director of sales. “But a gift card is a powerful recommendation. Like a venue’s facilities, architecture and design, it serves as a great differentiator. Retailers and restaurants have already seen such benefits for a while now.”
