TRAINING & SUPPORT Comprehensive training is provided and can be tailored according to the user role - e.g. front of house, finance or marketing, sessions typically take an hour.

We are on-hand during business hours (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm) to assist with any queries you have. Email support is available at all other times.

SPOTLIGHT ON PROMOTIONS With just a few clicks you can set up a special section in your gift voucher shop, this won’t appear in the main menu but will have a unique URL that you can email to your loyal, VIP guests.

DISCREET PROMOTIONS You can offer a promotion – i.e. buy this voucher NOW, for this special price, and stay within this period. Y ou’ll get the same guests back, on your terms.

DISCOUNT CODES Perfect for loyal guests or a Black Friday sale. Run a promotion with a unique discount code – apply it to specific vouchers, with a specific percentage saving, allocate a minimum spend and add an expiry date.

ELIMINATE OTA COMMISSION It’s not unusual for hotels and restaurants to promote deals through discount websites such as Travelzoo, Secret Escapes, Groupon, etc. As part of a wider strategy, these platforms can deliver growth. However, they typically charge 20%+ commission. Uniquely, Gift Voucher Brilliance can be used to eliminate that by optimising spend and tempting the same guests to visit again.

POINT OF SALE PACK We know first impressions are key. With this in mind we have an in-house point of sale pack with all the necessary collateral to promote gift vouchers in your property. If budget is tight you can still sell loud and proud as each item can be costed or ordered separately.

SPECIALIST MARKETING SUPPORT There are many more steps you can take to increase bookings and voucher sales. Our hospitality marketing specialists are perfectly placed to offer you dedicated advice.
