The ideal gift for everyone debuts in Mexico: Vanilla® Visa, Global Prepaid and Gift Card Brand, Launched
Cards now available at retail locations nationwide, including 7-Eleven and can be redeemed anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted
ATLANTA and MEXICO CITY – December 20, 2019 – InComm, a leading payments technology company, is launching its globally successful suite of Vanilla Visa prepaid and gift cards in Mexico. Vanilla Visa gift and prepaid cards are the ideal gift for loved ones, friends or colleagues to celebrate this holiday season or throughout the year for any special occasion.
Vanilla Visa products for the Mexican consumer market are single-load cards, meaning funds are loaded one time at the point of sale and can be redeemed anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted, in-store or online. They are convenient for gifting or for personal use, offering a practical, secure and fast purchase experience.
The convenience provided to both the giver and the recipient has hastened the mainstream adoption and popularity of gift cards in multiple countries such as Canada, UK and Australia, on their way to becoming a global trend for consumers. In the U.S., for example, gift cards are offered at most major retailers and are reported as the most requested gifts year after year.
