Covid-19 Impact on Gift Card Market:

Consumers across the globe are adjusting to the new normal and there is a noteworthy discrepancy in consumer behavior. Consumer's purchasing habits, behavior, and attitudes have changed in light of COVID-19. People are shopping very consciously and are majorly centered on basic needs and are buying locally. Consumers are using digital commerce to play, learn, and connect to manage isolation and follow social distancing policy. The covid-19 has consistently impacted the shopping behavior of 9 in 10 consumers. Nearly 30-50 percent of the consumers have shifted towards online shopping from March 2020 to December 2020.

Gift Card Market Overview

A gift card is a prepaid debit card that contains a specific amount of money that is used for a variety of purchases. Generally, there are two types of gift cards: open loop and closed loop cards. Both types can typically be used online and in person.

The growing use of smartphones has resulted in the increasing use of E-commerce websites. Consumers are largely using many mobile apps, such as Amazon, Flipkart, and eBay for online shopping. Again, hassle-free purchase on E-commerce websites is making online shopping a very lucrative business. Therefore, the rising popularity of online shopping is expected to boost the growth of the global gift cards market in the next few years. Additionally, growing acceptance of these gift cards, especially amongst the younger generation is anticipated to propel the growth of the market throughout the forecast period. 

However, ensuring secure management and privacy of consumer data is one of the major factors that adversely affect the growth of the market. Besides this, technological developments related to payment solutions and increasing demand for branded products are anticipated to create profitable opportunities for the market’s expansion in the forthcoming years.

Gift Card Market Segment Overview

Based on card type, the Closed-loop Card segment dominated the gift cards market and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This is owing to various benefits such as benefits providing an opportunity to businesses to make money on products purchased using gift cards and free activation for users. This fact escalates the adoption of closed-loop gift card.

Moreover, ongoing technological innovations in gift cards allow high sales in companies by making their product offerings more unique & attractive. This fact is expected to create a positive outlook for the development of the market.

Gift Card Market Regional Overview

In terms of regions, North America is anticipated to dominate the overall market, throughout the forecast period. This is mainly due to the presence of several superstores and malls in this region. On the other hand, the Asia Pacific is expected to register the fastest growth during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increasing use of mobile and rising internet penetration in this region. In addition, developing countries offer significant opportunities for gift card solution providers to expand & develop their offerings, especially among countries such as Australia, China, India, Singapore, and South Korea. 

Gift Card Market Competitor overview

Major players operating in the industry are focusing on various strategic initiatives such as partnerships and collaborations which are gaining significant popularity in the gift cards market.
