Wow - what a year! It started with much uncertainty, but we revamped our efforts and had a great one regardless! Like you all, we had to adapt our businesses practices while maintaining operational levels, adjust to remote work for some of our employees, balance work-life commitments under peculiar circumstances, etc. But we did it and managed to grow. For that, we are proud and thank our staff, partners, and customers. You all made it possible. Here are some of our favourite accomplishments!

We Added New Retailers

GCW is constantly on the lookout for new gift cards to add to our expanding catalogue, and here are the retailers who joined in 2021.

  • DoorDash
  • Thai Express
  • Instacart
  • Uber
  • Uber Eats
  • Pizza Nova
  • HelloFresh
  • Chefs Plate
  • Mastermind Toys
  • YRioCan Shopping Malls

We Added New Denominations

Choosing from a large selection of denominations is essential for gift card buyers like HR managers, marketing departments and others in administration. We know that this might seem like a small detail to some, but for our customers we know it’s a big deal, given that they’re responsible for making a positive impact on their employees this holiday season. Here are the gift card denominations that were added in 2021.

  • Ultramar $250
  • Wendy’s $50

Gift Card as Incentives Set to Continue Growing

As we analyzed previously this year, GCW expects the use of gift cards as rewards and incentives to continue growing. With so many employers and organizations using gift cards to motivate and support their people in a contactless manner, we worked extra hard to serve everyone expeditiously. In a time of great need, gift cards offered a concrete form of aid, and we made a point of serving our clients with this in mind.

We are proud of our accomplishments in 2021 and strive to surpass ourselves, once again, in the new year. We thank you all for making this an exceptional year, despite the challenges we had to overcome. From our extended GCW family, we wish you a marvellous year-end. Stay healthy, happy and safe and we look forward to connecting with you in 2022!
