The remote access of portal combined with GivexPOS's built-in reporting tools has freed up executive time, so we can focus on other areas of business development.
We are very pleased with our existing partnership with Givex. They helped us to launch our electronic gift card program and continue to maintain it today. By moving to electronic gift cards, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts was able to provide customers with an easy to get, easy to give gifting solution that meets the needs of recipients worldwide. Eliminating paper certificates helped to increase sales and reduce administrative costs and manual reconciliation.
With Givex automating many aspects of the program, it was easy for franchisees to push gift cards and reap the benefits.
