PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global branded payments provider Blackhawk Network (BHN) today announced the launch of Select Codes, an innovative digital code-to-catalog designed for businesses. Select Codes provides reward recipients with the ultimate choice and allows businesses to quickly and simply distribute codes to customers, employees and more. Once received, the recipient swaps the code for their choice of one or many retailer eGifts or virtual prepaid cards, from a selection curated by the business. Select Codes offers companies the opportunity to enhance their employee recognition programs and customer loyalty initiatives with a seamless and personalized digital reward experience, backed by BHN’s unrivaled catalog of eGift brands.
“Our research found that incentives buyers are looking for innovative products that create meaningful connections with their employees and customers. Also, recipients want rewards and incentives that provide the most choice and are easy to use,” said Jeff Haughton, SVP, Incentives, Corporate Development & Strategy at BHN. “We are delighted to respond to these demands and kick off the new year with the launch of Select Codes: a convenient, flexible and fast way for businesses to give rewards.”
Select Codes allows businesses to deliver a choice of rewards in the ways that work for them and their recipients:
- |
Variety of brands: Recipients can use their code to redeem an eGift (or eGifts) or virtual prepaid cards from a wide selection of brands they love, or they can redeem for one of BHN’s multi-brand gift cards such as One4all. |
|
- |
Rewards can be split: The value of the code can be split among multiple eGifts. For instance, if a recipient receives a $30 code, she can spend it on a $20 eGift from one retailer and a $10 eGift from another — providing even more choice and variety. |
|
- |
Custom catalog: Businesses can curate their own Select Codes catalog, choosing from the extensive selection of BHN digital gift cards and prepaid cards to build a unique rewarding experience. |

Delivery options: BHN can email Select Codes to recipients or simply provide a bulk file download. |

Ability to personalize: Each recipient’s email can include a personalized message from the sponsoring business. |
