Epay and Centrapay partner to create digital gift cards

The company has signed a three-year deal with epay New Zealand to give consumers the ability to store digital versions of epay Gift Station gift cards in their Sylo Smart Wallet on their mobile device. They can then purchase or redeem these online, or instore at participating merchants by scanning a QR code on the payment terminal. They will also be able to transfer gift cards digitally via the Sylo app.

Consumers will be able to see all details including balance and expiry date for each gift card in their digital wallet on their mobile phone. Gift Station digital gift cards should be live in time for peak gift card season in December.
