StoreFinancial Provides Gift Cards to Chambers of Commerce
Overland Park, Kansas, October 14, 2008 – StoreFinancial announces the addition of two Chambers of Commerce, Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce and Crawford County Chamber of Commerce, to its rapidly growing downtown gift card portfolio. The gift card programs provide downtown merchants within a defined geographic district the opportunity to unite under one gift card program. The program is customized for each Chamber’s participating merchants. Both programs are set to launch prior to Thanksgiving.
“StoreFinancial is proud to offer a gift card solution for individual merchants and locally owned companies. As the revitalization of downtowns and small communities continues, we are excited to offer a product that was typically reserved for shopping centers. It is our hope that the downtowns and Chambers will use the gift card as a tool to encourage shopping local and supporting local businesses,” said Phillip Myers, Business Development Rep at StoreFinancial.
The Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce, located in a Chicago suburb, will launch its gift card program in time for the holiday shopping season. StoreFinancial’s gift card program replaces Hinsdale’s gift certificate program. Gift cards will be available for purchase in denominations up to $500 at the Chamber Office.
