Downtown Kingston Gift Card: An Enhanced Shopping Experience
Accepted by over 160 businesses in downtown Kingston
The Downtown Kingston Gift Card has replaced the Downtown Dollars program, offering a more convenient and user-friendly experience. Customers can now enjoy a familiar gift card system while exploring the best of Downtown Kingston. Here's how your business can benefit:
New Revenue: As customers check where to spend their gift card, registered businesses will be highlighted, attracting new customers and increasing sales.
New Customers: Gift card users often visit businesses for the first time, potentially becoming regular customers.
Free & Easy to Accept: There's no cost to register, and the gift card works with all POS systems that accept VISA, requiring no additional equipment. Process transactions just like a VISA credit card.
Local Impact: Accepted by over 160 local businesses, the Downtown Kingston Gift Card keeps funds within the community.
Proven Success: Part of the Miconex Gift Card Concept, the program has generated millions of dollars in sales for over 10,000 businesses across 150 districts worldwide.
