COURTS Gift Card Program

COURTS Gift Card

We are thrilled to announce that we have gone live with a digital gift card program for COURTS, the second most popular e-market retailer in Southeast Asia. As part of the COURTS Program, we will be offering a range of services including digital gift cards, store refunds, and digital gift cards for their internal employee engagement programs. The digital gift cards can be used for retail sales as well as for corporate sales. In addition, category gift cards will also be offered, allowing customers to purchase cards specific to a particular product category like infocomm, furniture & electricals and several others.

Gift cards have become increasingly popular in the region and are now a preferred gifting option for many. With our partnership with COURTS, customers can now easily purchase gift cards for their loved ones or colleagues. The availability of digital gift cards ensures that the process is convenient and hassle-free, especially for those who prefer online shopping. For corporate customers, gift cards make for an excellent employee incentive or reward program, as they can be customized to suit specific requirements.

Another significant aspect of our partnership with COURTS is the store refunds program. This program allows customers to return products purchased from COURTS stores and receive refunds in the form of gift cards. This not only simplifies the refund process but also provides customers with an added incentive to shop at COURTS stores.

Finally, the COURTS Internal Employee Engagement program offers employees of COURTS an opportunity to win exciting COURTS gift cards and shop for their favourite products.

Our partnership with COURTS is a significant step towards expanding our presence in the Southeast Asian market. We are excited about the opportunities this partnership brings and look forward to serving COURTS’ customers with our innovative solutions.

Corporate Reward Programs

Its time to paint the town red!

Channel Incentive Program

We are excited to announce that we have launched an incentive program for a leading paint manufacturer. The program is designed to increase sales through exciting rewards for contractors.

The redemption process is straightforward. After registering on the app, the contractor can select the retailer they are working with by updating the retailer’s details. The details will be verified and approved at the backend. Tokens with QR codes are placed inside paint cans. Using the app, the contractor has to scan the QR code or star code he finds inside the paint cans, to receive points. Bonus points and points based on project sales can be uploaded at the backend. The contractor will be able to redeem accumulated points in the form of DBT or Gift Cards.

We are supporting ten different languages, including English, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, and Punjabi. This added support ensures that the program is accessible to a wide range of contractors across the length & breadth of the country.
