We are excited to announce that Qwikcilver has been awarded the “Best Prepaid Gift Card Solution” by IAMAI at the 10th India Digital Awards. The award was meant for a retailer or company that has excelled in the field of prepaid cards, gift cards or vouchers, for use, either in-store or online.
India Digital Awards was founded in 2009 with the aim to celebrate organizations, teams, and practitioners who have surpassed landmarks and delivered successful business outcomes using digital as a medium. Today, IDA is the most esteemed accolade in India and a true symbol of digital excellence.
We are honored to receive not just this prestigious award but also the award for the ‘Best Tech for Retail’. Winning these awards was possible because Qwikcilver has been able to identify and provide future ready solutions for retailers and other businesses.
The start of a Gifting Revolution
Qwikcilver was founded in 2008 as a Giftcard (stored-value cards) technology company. We partnered with retailers to provide the backend technology for their gift cards, thereby allowing corporates and customers to purchase and redeem gift cards seamlessly through the brands’ online and offline platforms. Unlike other gift vouchers, which had to be redeemed on a different PoS (Point of Sales), we successfully integrated our technology with that of the software provider of the billing system used by the retailer.
The closed-loop and semi-closed-loop gift cards (that can be redeemed at one brand store and at multiple brand stores respectively) are either ‘powered by’ or ‘issued by’ Qwikcilver, depending on the brand’s requirement. “In the case of ‘powered by’, our role is that of a technology enabler and service provider. “In case of ‘issued by’, we are also legally the issuer of the card; using our RBI license to issue these cards.
Since then, Qwikcilver has revolutionized the gifting landscape with future-ready technology solutions and has built, ground up, a state-of-the-art Stored Value Platform exclusively for managing Prepaid gift cards for Merchants and Brands.
Our gift card management software uses the most advanced technology to create a gift card platform that is able to provide solutions such as personalized gift cards for businesses and the ease of selling gift cards online.
