About Filling Station United Kingdom

The Filling Station gift card is issued under The Restaurant Card scheme and can be used at over 180 dining locations across the United Kingdom. The participating brands include Bella Italia, Chiquito, Las Iguanas, The Banana Tree, and Frankie & Benny's, giving recipients a reasonably wide choice of casual dining options rather than a single restaurant chain. For a business sending rewards to people in the UK, this card works well for food-loving teams, customer thank-yous, or research participants who want a practical treat. It is less suitable if your recipients need something more flexible, such as a card that can be spent on groceries, travel, or online shopping.

Cards are issued in British pounds and can be loaded with any amount from £1 to £250. The card expires 24 months after its last date of use, so there is no pressure on the recipient to spend it immediately, but balances should not be left for years. There is no indication that the card can be used outside the UK or in other currencies, so it is best reserved for recipients living in or visiting the United Kingdom.

A recipient uses the card like a standard restaurant gift card: present it as payment at any participating location. The card cannot be exchanged for cash and is for single use up to its balance. The scheme is run by Big Table Group, and the full terms are available on their website. No exclusions are listed beyond the participating restaurant brands, so buyers should be aware that the card cannot be used at independent restaurants, supermarkets, or other retailers.

Through GIFQ, businesses can send Filling Station cards in bulk from the dashboard or one at a time via API. That makes it practical for a UK employer to reward a remote team with a meal out, for a research company to compensate participants with a dining voucher, or for a marketer to thank customers after a purchase. Because the card is digital, recipients receive their code without waiting for post, though delivery time and any fees are not stated.

This card is exclusive to the United Kingdom. If your recipients are based elsewhere, you will need a different brand or market card from GIFQ.

From product selection to delivery

For a direct order, your business chooses this product, its value and the quantity. Review the card details alongside the recipient’s needs before including it in a bulk order or an integration.

  1. Check the market and value

    The card details show the values and currency for this product. Use those to choose an amount that fits your budget and the recipient’s market. For a different country, explore the brand’s other market listings.

  2. Prepare the recipient’s instructions

    Review the expiry information shown and the brand’s instructions. Check whether redemption requires an account or a particular channel. Deliver those instructions with the reward so the recipient knows how to use it.

  3. Choose direct ordering or recipient choice

    If you need this particular card, order the selected product and value through the dashboard or API. If you want the person to choose the brand, confirm the options available for that payout before presenting the selection.

  4. Start with a small order

    Test the flow with a small order and keep its reference. Check the status before repeating a request that appears delayed. In an integration, connect the GIFQ order to your own record so your team can follow up on delivery questions.

Frequently asked questions

Where can the Filling Station gift card be used?

At over 180 restaurant locations across the United Kingdom, including Bella Italia, Chiquito, Las Iguanas, The Banana Tree, and Frankie & Benny’s. It is not accepted outside these participating restaurants.

What denominations are available for the Filling Station card?

You can load any amount from £1 to £250 in British pounds. There are no fixed denominations, so you can choose an amount that fits your budget per recipient.

Does the Filling Station gift card expire?

Yes, the card expires 24 months after its last date of use. Each time the card is used, the expiry period resets from that date, so an active card can last much longer than two years from purchase.

How does a recipient redeem the card?

The recipient presents the digital card as payment at any participating restaurant. The card is for single use up to its remaining balance and cannot be exchanged for cash.

Can I send Filling Station cards in bulk through GIFQ?

Yes. GIFQ lets you upload a list of recipients and send Filling Station cards to all of them at once, or you can integrate the API to send cards programmatically as part of your own workflow.

Is this card valid outside the United Kingdom?

No. The Filling Station card is issued for the UK only and is not interchangeable with cards from other markets. Anyone using it must be able to visit a participating UK restaurant.
