News | New Gift Card Expiry Law   Consumer-facing businesses take note! A new law has been passed requiring all gift cards to have a minimum expiry period of three years!   This legislation is designed to give consumers more time to fully enjoy the value of their gift cards. Whether you offer physical or digital gift cards, ensure you're prepared to comply.   Note: Cards for charities, loyalty programs, or time-limited events are excluded.   This change comes into effect in 18 months, so plan accordingly to align with the new rules!   #GiftCardUpdate #BusinessNews #CustomerExperience #Retail
