In this special episode of The Gift Club's CEO Soapbox podcast, our CEO, Hadie Perkas (G.I.R.L) 😊, delves into the recent merger between two digital gifting powerhouses: The Middle East's. YOUGotaGift and Japan's giftee Inc. Joining us are Husain Makiya, CEO & Co-founder of YOUGotaGift, and Mutsumi Ota, CEO of giftee Inc., who share their perspectives on this strategic alliance and its implications for the digital gift card markets in the Middle East and Japan. "A couple of years ago, we felt we were maturing as a business and wanted to start looking beyond our borders. Meeting the giftee team felt like a natural connection. We share similar DNA—how we started, the length of time we've been operating, and how we dominate in our respective markets. From the beginning, YOUGotaGift was set out to build a world-class digital platform that could one day scale globally. giftee shares that vision of going beyond borders, and together, we can make it happen " Husain Makiya" By combining giftee’s innovative e-gift solutions with YOUGotaGift’s regional leadership, we’re creating a platform that brings global innovation to digital gifting and branded payments. This partnership is about redefining the future of the industry." Mutsumi Ota Watch the podcast here: https://lnkd.in/eyjrnjJN #digitalpayments #giftcards #loyalty #customerengagement

Last week, our CEO, Hadie Perkas (G.I.R.L) 😊, chatted to Anna Uprichard at Blackhawk Network. Since the gift card and incentive industry is right in the middle of peak, we thought it would be a great time to explore what things businesses need to remember during this highly productive time. Especially when 45% of people's Christmas present budgets are likely to go towards gift cards this year and nearly 30% of this spend will be happening this month. Anna and Hadie also couldn't resist swapping stories on their younger selves attempting, and failing, to do the splits! Take 15 minutes out and have a listen....
