Why Gift Cards are the Perfect Christmas Gift
August 2025
Many people do not know that gift card scams are a common occurrence. They also don’t know what gift card scams are and the key indicators on how to spot them.
At Voucher Express, we think it is important to increase awareness on gift card scams to help reduce the number of unsuspecting customers being targeted and becoming victims to this fraudulent activity.
Why Choose Gift Cards at Christmas?
Flexibility & Choice
Gift cards give your loved ones the chance to shop their favourite brands and buy what they truly want. From fashion and beauty to dining, tech, and experiences, the options are endless.
No Wrong Sizes or Styles
Clothing, footwear, and jewellery can be tricky gifts. With a fashion gift card, they choose the right size, colour, or trend themselves.
Perfect for All Ages
Kids love toy store and gaming gift cards, teenagers enjoy fashion and tech vouchers, while adults appreciate restaurant, homeware, and experience days.
Fast & Convenient Delivery
Last-minute shopper? No problem. With digital eGift cards, your present can be delivered instantly via email. Prefer something tangible? Physical gift cards can be beautifully packaged and posted directly to their door.
Who are Gift Cards Good For?
Family
From Babies & Children gift cards for little ones, to Fashion & Footwear vouchers for stylish teens, to Dining & Restaurant gift cards for parents, there’s something for everyone.
Friends
Not sure what your best friend has on their wish list? Choose a Beauty gift card (makeup, skincare, or fragrance), or an Experiences & Days Out voucher to make memories together.
Colleagues
Perfect for Secret Santa or workplace gifts. Options like Love2Shop, John Lewis, or Marks & Spencer gift cards are safe and appreciated choices.
Hard-to-Buy-For People
Everyone has one person who is impossible to shop for. With multi-store gift cards, they can choose from dozens of leading brands.
