Gift cards are reusable, stored-value cards that provide merchants an electronic alternative to paper gift certificates. Our high quality gift cards generate sales at the time of purchase and when redeemed. And since most consumers spend more than the amount on the card, merchants enjoy the additional profit.
Use gift cards to promote sales events, new products, and new locations.

I own a residential and commercial paint contracting company. We were with the same payment processing company for eleven years. We recently moved our business to EpicPay and our savings are significant. We love the change!
