Interesting results from the latest GCVA and Global data report.
The study revealed that gift cards lead to a larger average spend, particularly among family-aged Millennials. This demographic, often stereotyped as budget-conscious, is more likely to indulge when using a gift card.

♻️ Exciting news! We are joining The Big Plastic Count!!💚
Why is The Big Plastic Count Happening?
Currently, World Leaders are negotiating the United Nations Global Plastic Treaty. This treaty is the first of it kind to prevent the harmful impact of single-use plastic.
Greenpeace UK and Everyday Plastic are collaborating with The Big Plastic Count. This week-long event is in aid of gathering evidence on how much single-use plastic we use. The hope is that with this evidence, pressure can be put on organisations and governments to force alternatives to plastic onto the market.
🚨 The point of this count is not to make you feel guilty about the amount of plastic you use 🚨
Only to highlight the amount of single-use plastic we use because we are offered no alternatives.
Why is Green Gift Cards taking part?
Our ethos, brand and identity are built on removing single-use plastic from the UK gift card industry. We talk to our clients about how removing plastic not only benefits the environment and their brand's image but it removes the guilt of pollution from their customers and offers a simple sustainable solution.
We have worked hard to remove most (you know who you are) of the single-use plastic in the UK gift card industry but now it is time for us to put ourselves under the microscope.
How much single-use plastic do we, the Green Gift Card head office use in a week?
