FAQs for gift providers

Our gift provider policy

As you will see from about us, one of our aims is to get people to treasure their local community, so we only work with independent local businesses offering quality goods and services.

"Independent" means having only 1 or 2 bases and being owner run.

We set out our gift provider's qualifications, insurance and trade membership so gift buyers can assess the likely quality of a tradesperson or gift provider for themselves.

We do not work with businesses that offer imported goods however we do recognise that businesses have to import some of their supplies (at least until cocoa trees start growing in Scotland).

Our price policy

Our policy is that gift buyers should pay no more buying a gift through us than they would if they bought directly from you.

We do not charge our gift providers for appearing on this website but we do charge a commission on gifts purchased through us. This commission fits into your marketing margin. Obviously, our gift providers feel the commission we charge is good value or they wouldn't choose to appear on this site.

We do make a small price uplift to make the gift value fit the points scheme - but this uplift goes to you as the gift provider rather than us.  We do ask gift providers to offer a small extra something to make up for this uplift and most do this as they want you to know the good value that they offer.

How do we keep your money safe?

We transfer the value of your voucher to separate deposit account. This keeps your money safe until such time as the voucher is redeemed.
