Ticketcorner Switzerland gift cards

Ticketcorner is where most people in Switzerland buy tickets for concerts, festivals, sports games and theatre. A gift card for Ticketcorner is a way to hand someone an experience rather than a product, with the freedom to choose the event that interests them. The card is loaded with CHF 25, 50 or 100, and that full amount can be applied to any tickets available on ticketcorner.ch or through the Ticketcorner Call Center.

These cards suit people living in Switzerland, since events are typically local and the currency is Swiss francs. The card is not a general-purpose payment card and cannot be used outside the Ticketcorner platform. There is no expiry date stated in the terms, so a recipient can wait for the right show to come along. It is a simple one-time treat that works well for employees, customers or research participants who are already into live entertainment.

A recipient redeems the full value of the card against their purchase in a single transaction. There is no partial redemption or stored balance; any difference between the card value and the ticket price is paid by the recipient with another method. Because tickets are sold in CHF, this card only makes sense for a Swiss audience. It is not interchangeable with a voucher in another currency or for another ticketing system.

Through GIFQ, a company can send Ticketcorner cards to many recipients at once from the dashboard, or trigger them individually via the API. This works for paying out a bonus to a distributed Swiss team, thanking a group of research participants in Switzerland, or running a customer promotion where the prize is a night out. The buyer sets the value per recipient from the three available amounts and chooses the local currency.

One thing to keep in mind is that a Ticketcorner card is for tickets only, not for merchandise or on-site purchases at a venue. For a remote team outside Switzerland the value would be wasted, and for recipients who rarely attend events a more general reward might be a better choice. But for a Swiss audience that enjoys live entertainment, this is a focused and appreciated reward.
