Gifty is a corporate gifting solution enabling businesses of all sizes to send exchangeable gift credit ("Gifty Credit") to recipients ("Gifty Recipients") who can spend it to purchase gift codes that can be used instantly in-store or online to pay for goods or services ("Digital Gift Codes") from a range of retail merchants ("Participating Retailers"). Typical recipients include employees, team members and customers. Gifty is operated by Scream Limited t/a WIN|WIN – Ireland’s leading Rewards & Loyalty Agency.
In the majority of instances, Digital Gift Codes can be redeemed on multiple transactions and unused credit may be used on a subsequent transaction. However, some Retailers operate single use. Please carefully read the terms of use for each Gifty Retailer before deciding how to spend your Gifty Credit as once you have selected a Gifty Retailer your decision cannot be reversed retrospectively.
Digital Gift Code (DGC)
A Digital Gift Code is generated when the Gifty Recipient selects the Participating Retailer for which it decides to convert Gifty Credit. The DGC unlocks its correspondivvalue with the participating Retail er directly at the point of purchase.
Gifty Code Expiry
The Gift Code Expiry is the date that the actual Gift Code will expire, after which it will no longer be accepted by Particiapting Retailers.
Gifty Credit (GC)
Gifty Credit is a Monetary Currency within the Gifty.ie platform that is assigned to Recipients by the sending party - the Gifty Client
Gifty Rec ipients
Gifty Rec ipients Gifty Rec ipients are the end users of Gif ty Credit who have teen sent GC by the Gifty Client
Selection Window
The Selection Window is the time period set by the Gifty Client for Recipients to activate the Gifty link sent to them and th en select their preffered Retailer from which to generate their Gift Codels1.
Gifty provides the opportunity for businesses to send recipients "Gifty Credit". Gifty Credit sits within the Gifty programme, a Loyalty Programme that facilitates a closed loop gifting service that lists a number of Participating Retailers that accept Gifty Credit in exchange for their Digital Gift Codes.
Gifty Credit can be spent by the recipient to buy Digital Gift Codes under distinct monetary denominations. The denominations available per Retail Partner will be clearly set out when reviewing participating Gifty Retailers. This is to provide choice for those Gifty Recipients who may wish to use their Gifty Credit across multiple Gifty Retailers.
Please note that when making a purchase online the Retailer Partner may provide that only one Digital Gift Code may be used per transaction which will prevent you from using all your Digital Gift Codes on a single purchase. Therefore, Gifty Recipients are advised to check this condition both when selecting their Digital Gift Codes and indeed when attempting to use within a transaction.
Gifty Recipients are sent a live URL web site link ("Gifty Link") via email to allow them to Register a Gifty Membership Account and access their Gifty Credit. Recipients are advised to carefully store their Gifty Link. This will be in e-mail format so will be available for re-use provided the recipient does not delete it. It is recommended that you do not forward your link to any 3rd party or indeed unintended recipients as once your Gifty link leaves your control it may be used by those who receive your e-mail. You are responsible for managing the security of your e-mail.
Gifty credit will not be reissued if you have shared, whether intentionally or unintentionally, your Gifty link with a 3rd party or indeed unintended recipients.
When first activating your Gifty, you are asked to Register using a Username & Password. This is a security function to ensure only the intended Gifty Recipient has access to and ultimately benefits from the Gifty Credit issued by the sender. Once a Registration is successfully completed, the user is automatically a member of the Gifty loyalty programme and can use the same Registration credentials to access future Gifty notifications.
The Username can be anonymous and does not have to in any way identify the actual personal details of the Gifty Recipient. At no point does Gifty require specific personal details or contact information in order for the Gifty Recipient to benefit from the programme.
There will be no future marketing of Gifty to the Gifty Recipient given that no contact information is requested or stored as part of the Registration process. Should you wish to be notified of Gifty news you can access the "Notify Me" section of the portal and declare voluntarily your contact details specifically for this purpose.
Registered Gifty Members will also be able to access their profile via the Gifty.ie website under the "Member Login" facility by entering their Username & Password.
Having converted your Gifty Credit into a Digital Gift Code you will then be able to use this code as either full or part payment for products or services rendered with that Retailer. Please be aware that Gifty Retailers may permit Digital Code Usage either a) In Store Only b) Online Only or c) Both Instore & Online. These conditions are clearly set out in the direct Gift Code Terms & Conditions and should be referenced before making your selection.
Gifty Credit will not be reissued if you have selected a Retail Partner and then wish to change your choice based on realising post selection any of the above limitations.
In using your Gifty, you will have access to navigate the Gifty platform within which you can browse Participating Retailer options and make Gift Code selections within your Gifty Credit allowance. Gifty Recipients will also be able to store their Gift Codes in the Wallet section of the platform as well as print, create a PDF or simply view their Gift Code (it is also popular for Gifty Recipients to "screen shot" their Gift Code for ease of future use on mobile devices).
Gifty Recipients can access the platform several times by using the link originally sent to them by the Gifty Client or for registered Gifty Members via Gifty.ie. Such access however will only be possible within the timeframe of the Gifty Window. If you have only part used your Gifty Credit in an earlier session, your next visit will clearly set out your remaining Gifty Credit as well as retain full access to the above features.
Please note that once Gifty Credit has been exchanged for Digital Gift Codes with Participating Retailers, you must retain a copy of the Digital Gift Code(s) as it is not possible to re-issue Digital Gift Codes post the closing of the Selection Window.
It is important to note that as Gifty is a Loyalty Programme within which sits a Promotional Gifting solution that creates promotional cost efficiencies based on commercial discounts and a bespoke, transparent rebate mechanism for Gifty business clients based on any potential non-engagement by recipients. It does not therefore fall within the parameters of The Consumer Protection (Gift Vouchers) Act (2019). This Act was designed to address Consumers who directly purchase Monetary Vouchers from Retailers at full Retail Value.
The Gifty model provides Gifty Corporate Customers with the ability to tailor the duration of a Gifty promotion ("the Selection Window"). As standard, the Selection Window is set at 3 months however Gifty Business Clients reserve the right to adjust this. In every case, the Gifty Client will clearly communicate to the Gifty Recipient what the Selection Window is in place for their promotion. As standard, once a Gifty Recipient generates a Digital Gift Code they will then have 12 months to use their Digital Gift Voucher with their selected Retailer from the date of their selection.
We reserve the right to introduce new terms and/or to vary or amend an existing term by giving you at least two weeks’ notice thereof on the Website or by whatever means we, in accordance with applicable legislation, deem appropriate at that time.
Gifty at all times strives to provide Gifty Recipients with the very best selection of quality Retail Partners across multiple categories from which to use their Gifty Credit. Gifty reserves the right to add/remove Retail Partners within the Gifty platform as required. Participation in the Gifty platform is entirely at the discretion of the Participating Retailer who may for their own reasons decide to suspend or cease their listing on the Gifty platform. In such an instance, any codes already generated for such a Retailer will be fully honoured as per their Terms & Conditions up to and including the relevant Digital Gift Code expiry. A list of current participating retailers will always be available on the Gifty.ie website.
