Scottish Borders - Town & City Gift Cards United Kingdom gift cards

The Scottish Borders Gift Card is a town and city gift card that can be spent at a wide range of businesses across the Scottish Borders, from well-known national retailers and restaurants to small independent shops, cafés and attractions. It’s part of the Town & City Gift Card network, which operates similar local schemes in other towns and cities across the UK.

Cards are available in fixed GBP values from 10 to 500. The full list of denominations is 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 75, 80, 90, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 400, 425, 450, 475 and 500. Each card is valid for 12 months from the date of issue.

Recipients in the UK can use the card at participating locations across the Scottish Borders. The card is not an open-loop payment card; it can only be spent at businesses that have joined the programme. A full directory of participating businesses is available through the operator’s website, and cards can be presented in store. The card cannot be exchanged for cash, and any remaining balance stays on the card for future purchases within the validity period.

Businesses can use GIFQ to send Scottish Borders Gift Cards to employees, customers, research participants, affiliates or partners in the UK. The card suits rewards for staff based in or visiting the Borders, thank-you gifts for local clients, or incentives for people who live in the region. Because spending is limited to participating businesses, it’s best for recipients who can physically visit shops and venues in the area.

If your recipients are spread across the UK rather than concentrated in the Scottish Borders, a national multi-retailer gift card may be a more flexible choice. The Scottish Borders Gift Card is specifically a local scheme and will not work at branches of participating chains outside the defined area, even if the same chain has stores elsewhere in the country.
