Gift cards

Give your customers something to come back for.

A proper digital gift-card system for your business — set up, tested and ready to use.

You've probably been meaning to do this.

Gift cards sound simple until you actually have to set everything up. Payments. Gift-card values. Your business details. The customer experience. Making sure everything works before you tell customers about it. That's the bit Blackthorn takes care of.

Set up→ Test→ Go live

We get the whole thing working.

01
Set it up
We configure your digital gift-card system around your business.
02
Get payments working
We make sure the payment process is connected and functioning properly.
03

We check the customer journey before you start promoting it.
04

When we set it up in person, we'll show you how to take and manage a gift-card payment.
05
Hand it over
You leave with something that's actually ready to use — not another unfinished project.

Good for businesses people already want to buy from.

Cafés. Restaurants. Barbers. Salons. Independent shops. Local businesses with regular customers who might happily buy a gift card — if there was an easy way to do it.

You don't need to be tech-savvy. That's rather the point.

Everything, working, before you promote it.
