What is the Gift Station?
The Gift Station is a one-stop stand that holds a huge number of retailers' gift cards. At a Gift Station stand, you can choose gift cards from dozens of New Zealand's leading brands, all in the one place. Plus, the Gift Station is in more than 1,400 stores across the country.
What are gift cards?
The Gift Station gift cards are electronic plastic cards, basically the modern version of a gift voucher. They're the same shape and size as an Eftpos card and, just like your Eftpos card, they have a magnetic strip on the back that is read by an Eftpos terminal.
How do Gift Station gift cards work?
You choose a gift from this web site or from the Gift Station stand in store, choose the value you want to put on it, then pay for it at the checkout and the value you've chosen is loaded on to the card via an Ezi-Pay Eftpos terminal. As soon as the card is loaded, the person you give it to can use it to pay for goods.
Where can Gift Station gift cards be redeemed?
Just like gift vouchers, gift cards can be redeemed in the stores they belong to, for example a Bond + Bond gift card can be redeemed at any Bond + Bond store. On the back of each card (as well as on this site), you'll find information about where you can redeem your card as well as any special conditions that may apply. | How do I use a Gift Station gift card?
Take it to your nearest outlet and use it to pay for whatever you like! The card gets swiped through an Eftpos terminal, which checks the balance and takes the amount you've spent off the card. You can use it all up or save some until later. With an electronic gift card, you don't get any change - your card remembers the balance. You can check the balance here and of course in store when you're using the card.
Where do I find the Gift Station?
At New World, Pak 'n Save and 4 Square supermarkets, Paper Plus, Take Note, Life Pharmacy, Liquorland and Civic Video stores. There's an outlet near you and of course, you're likely to be shopping at one of those stores already! And if you prefer to shop from home, you can buy our full range online right here.
Do Gift Station gift cards expire?
Yes, gift cards have an expiry date. Check the back of each gift card, or the conditions for each card on this site. The card will expire the stated number of months from the time it's first purchased.
How can I check the balance on my gift card?
Use our online balance check to find out the current balance on your gift card as well as its expiry date. The balance will also print on your receipt, whenever you use your card to pay for goods.
How can I find out when my card expires?
Our online balance check will also show your card's expiry date. |
