A NEW gift card, similar to that which exists at the prestigious Dun- drum Shopping Centre in Dublin, will be launched at SkyCourt in Shannon this week.
In an effort to entice customers to spend their money at SkyCourt, management has designed its very own new gift card scheme, specifi-
cally for use in all of it’s 60 retail outlets in the Shannon complex. It will be launched at a fashion show at SkyCourt food court on Thursday at 7pm.
The gift card is similar in appear- ance to a credit card and is backed by MasterCard.
“It is really simple to use. You buy the card at the SkyCourt service desk, prepay what ever amount you
like and then offer it as a gift for use in any of our stores accepting Mas- terCard/Maestro,’ said SkyCourt manager Pat Kelly.
“We are really pleased to be the first in Munster to introduce this Gift Card Scheme which is currently operating very successfully in Dun- drum Shopping Centre,” said Mr Keath
“Tt helps solve the difficult decision-
making people have at Christmas and birthdays. It allows the receiver of the card to enjoy a shopping ex- perience and purchase exactly what they want,” he said.
An information and purchase point desk will be open in the shopping centre to coincide with Thursday’s fashion show launch. Complimen- tary food and light refreshments will also be available.
