Moray Gift Card Contest Offers Shoppers Chance to Win Big Ahead of Christmas

Shoppers in Moray have an exciting opportunity to win gift cards worth hundreds of pounds as the region launches its Great Gift Card Giveaway campaign. Starting on October 27 and running until November 9, participating businesses will distribute cards that provide customers with a chance to win a Moray Gift Card instantly.

The initiative aims to encourage local shopping and support for businesses in the area. Customers who receive the cards can scan a QR code that links to an online game, revealing whether they have won a gift card. A total of £500 in Moray Gift Cards will be awarded, including a top prize of a £250 card, along with ten additional prizes of £25 each.

Winners will have the option to choose between a physical version of the Moray Gift Card or a digital version that can be added to digital wallets. The digital card, set to be introduced in 2024, allows recipients to make contactless payments at local businesses.

Louise Dunn, representing the Moray Gift Card, highlighted the festive spirit of the campaign, stating, “Christmas is on the horizon and who wouldn’t love to win a Moray Gift Card to get cracking on their shopping, or even to treat themselves. All people have to do is support participating Moray businesses during the campaign to be handed a card with an instant chance to win.”

The initiative is designed to incentivize daily engagement with local businesses, as participants can enter the contest once per day. Dunn emphasized that this provides a strong reason for shoppers to explore Moray and support its local economy.

The Moray Gift Card is part of the Scotland Loves Local Gift Card initiative, which is supported by Scotland’s Towns Partnership and fintech company Miconex. Colin Munro, CEO of Miconex, noted the growth of the Moray Gift Card since its launch in 2021. “It’s just over four years since the Moray Gift Card first launched with a mission to make local shopping easy and enjoyable.”

Munro shared impressive statistics, stating that the initiative now includes 260 businesses accepting the card and has generated over £160,000 in sales. The Great Gift Card Giveaway campaign celebrates these achievements and underscores the unique value of the Moray Gift Card compared to generic gift cards.

With the holiday season approaching, the Great Gift Card Giveaway not only fosters community support but also enhances the shopping experience for Moray residents. By participating, shoppers can potentially win valuable rewards while also contributing to the local economy.
