Key Terms

digital gift cards financial

Digital gift cards are electronic prepaid vouchers loaded with a set dollar value that can be redeemed online or in stores, like a virtual version of a paper gift certificate kept in a phone or email. For investors they matter because they represent near-term cash received before goods or services are delivered (improving short-term cash flow), create customer acquisition and repeat-purchase opportunities, and appear as a short-term liability on a company’s balance sheet until redeemed.
