NEWS: One4all Gift Card shortlisted for three categories in The Cards & Payments Awards 2018

The Gift Voucher Shop (GVS), which produces the UK’s leading multi-retailer gift card, One4all, has been recognised in three categories for The Card & Payments Awards 2018.

The Card & Payments Awards recognises excellence and innovation in the card and payments industries across the UK and Ireland.

GVS has been shortlisted for Best Prepaid Product of the Year for the One4all Gift Card. In the past 12 months GVS has not only seen sales soar but it has also launched five new products and recruited several large high street retailers to the scheme. The One4all Gift Card can now be spent in over 120 stores including Argos, Debenhams, Marks & Spencer, Primark and more.

Meanwhile, The One4all Gift Card 2016 PR and advertising Christmas campaign, Happy Gifting, has been shortlisted for Best Marketing Campaign of the Year. The campaign smashed targets, increased overall brand awareness and delivered double-digit year on year growth in both the UK and Irish markets.

One4all Gift Cards has also been shortlisted for Best CSR Programme of the Year for its 2017 Shop4Crumlin initiative, which raised over €30,000 for the Crumlin Children’s Hospital’s Giggle Fund – a fund dedicated to making sick children smile.

Alan Smith, UK Managing Director at One4all Gift Cards said: “Being shortlisted for not just one but three categories in The Card & Payments Awards 2018 is fantastic and a true reflection of the hard work and efforts of the GVS and One4all teams in the UK and Ireland.

“One4all is so much more than just a gift card, “happy gifting” is truly our mission. As a company, we are passionate about spreading joy – not just through products like the One4all Gift Card but also through initiatives that often benefit more than just the recipient and give back or benefit others within the community, such as Shop4Crumlin and our Children in Need Pudsey Gift Card.

“We have lots of campaigns and ideas in the pipeline for 2018 and hope that they are every bit as successful as the past 12 months.”

The Cards & Payments Awards 2018 will be judged by an independent panel of industry experts, and winners will be announced at during a ceremony taking place at The Grosvenor House Hotel in London, Thursday 1st February 2018.
