Shop Rancho Mirage: Merchant Info Session

Description

Attention Rancho Mirage Businesses
Don’t Miss An Opportunity To Be A Part Of The Rancho Mirage Community Gift Card
We’re excited to introduce the Rancho Mirage Community Gift Card, powered by Yiftee! This digital gift card program is designed to support local businesses by encouraging residents and visitors to shop locally and keep spending within our beautiful city. The city will also be introducing a $50,000 bonus to encourage holiday spending, provided through a 50% match on spending power. How does it work, you ask? It's simple! When someone buys a digital card online —let's say a $200 card—the city will contribute an extra 50% of the card’s value. In this example, the buyer receives an additional $100 to spend at participating businesses, giving them $300 in total!
 
Joining the program is simple, free, and can help grow your customer base!

Here’s why your business should be part of this exciting program:
 

• No Cost to You: There are no fees for your business to participate. Simply sign up, and you'll start accepting Rancho Mirage Community Gift Cards right away!
• Easy Setup: If you already accept MasterCard, you can accept Yiftee gift cards. There’s no extra equipment or software to install—just register, and you’re good to go.
• Bring in More Customers: This program encourages shoppers to support local businesses like yours. The more businesses that join, the more reasons people will have to spend their Rancho Mirage gift cards in town!
• Digital Convenience: The gift cards are digital—delivered via email or text. Customers can use them with ease, and your business gets paid like any other credit card transaction.
• Marketing and Bonus Incentives: The City of Rancho Mirage and the Rancho Mirage Chamber of Commerce will be heavily marketing the Community Card and Shop Local message. Every participating business will have access to marketing collateral, POS displays and digital assets. The city will also be adding in bonus incentives throughout the year during historically slow business cycles to encourage local spending.
• Upcoming Webinars: The City of Rancho Mirage, the Chamber of Commerce, and Yiftee have scheduled Zoom webinars to answer business-related questions and demonstrate how the new system works. You can find the links and additional details below:
