Voucher Cheques are a highly popular mechanism for companies looking to incentivise and reward customers or employees. The pre-denominated online cheques, which resemble a bank cheque, can be campaign branded and personalised to individuals. Recipients then simply visit a secure dedicated online website to the type of vouchers they would like from the extensive ion listed on the reverse, which range from sport and leisure to groceries, fashion, entertainment and holidays, rather than sending their order via the post. The vouchers are then delivered to them within five working days. Kuljit Kaur, Head of Business Development at The Voucher Shop, says: "The Online Voucher Cheque service saves clients time and money, as well as providing a wide range of reward options guaranteed to appeal to every employee."

The poll, conducted in May 2010 amongst HR managers and executives from across a range of industries, revealed that 53% of employers consult with their staff on which retail vouchers they would like. Paul McRae, Business Development Manager at The Voucher Shop, said: “Consulting with employees on which vouchers they would like to receive is a key factor in ensuring that an incentive or reward scheme is as effective as possible and it is encouraging to note that over half of employers do so. Employers should not make a decision on voucher types based on their own perspective as the preferences of the target audience may differ markedly from what they assume will appeal. By obtaining good feedback from all potential recipients employers can ensure that they are happy when they receive their vouchers.” Wed, 16 Jun 2010 00:00:00 +0600 http://thevouchershop.co.uk/NewsDetails.asp?id=88 The Voucher Shop has launched a cash-back promotions service which is ideal for customer promotion activity. Companies wishing to attract new customers and reward existing ones can now issue a branded letter to them containing details of the promotion, for example, to thank them for making a purchase, and a perforated cheque for the customer to bank. Alternatively, companies can opt for a perforated Voucher Cheque whereby recipients simply their preferred voucher type from a choice of over 35 retailers and return the cheque in the prepaid envelope provided for fulfilment. Kuljit Kaur, Head of Business Development at The Voucher Shop, says: "The cash-back promotions service is a simple and flexible way for businesses to reward their customers for choosing them. In today’s business environment companies are looking to do all they can to attract and retain customers without incurring huge expense. The cash-back promotions service meets that need."
