MoneyBar Powers the Ultimate Gift Card!
Vancouver, BC - July 17, 2006 - MoneyBar Technologies Inc., a leader in innovative electronic payment, stored value, and marketing transaction solutions, announces a long-term agreement with Second Stream Marketing to provide MoneyBar processing for Second Stream's industry-shaking Ultimate Gift Card (UGC) program.
Utilizing MoneyBar's proprietary technology for creating and managing integrated cards, the Ultimate Gift Card is re-writing the gift card industry rules by integrating gift card offers from a variety of merchants into one single card. With the obvious benefit of allowing consumers to carry only one card instead of many, the UGC is a welcome development to the exploding gift card market. As consumers patronize their favourite merchants they can in fact create their own personalized gift or convenience card to suit their needs and preferences, and as Second Stream's marketing literature proclaims, “So Good, You'll Keep it for Yourself”.
Merchants also benefit from the myriad of combinations and variations now possible for cross-promotion and value-add propositions. A merchant can use its own branded cards to provide additional benefits to their customers, while enjoying the flexibility of accepting other participating merchants' cards in its store.
Ultimate Gift Card Stores are being planned for cities across North America that will sell a very wide variety of existing gift cards, merchant programs, customized personal cards and corporate cards, with technology and processing provided by MoneyBar. In a UGC store, a consumer can build his own gift card and leave the store in moments with everything on one card.
