TORONTO, Jan. 26 /PRNewswire/ - Omniterm Data Technology Ltd, an industry leading Point-of-Sale solutions company dedicated to the cinema industry for the past 30 years, and Givex, a global provider of closed loop card technologies including gift, loyalty and other stored value programs, announced today the successful integration of Givex gift card technology to Omniterm POS.

Designed with the needs of the cinema industry in mind, Omniterm POS solutions integrate box office and concession functionality, increasing efficiency and management effectiveness for both single-site venues and multi-site operations.

"A gift of movie tickets presents many potential pitfalls," says Brittain Brown, VP Marketing and Product Management, Givex. "The giver risks picking a movie or time that clashes with the recipient's preferences. A gift card however, allows the recipient to choose for themselves."

"A customer can choose from many cinemas to watch a movie," says Darrin Lewis, Director of Sales, Omniterm. "But a gift card is a powerful recommendation. Like a venue's facilities, architecture and design, it serves as a great differentiator. Retailers and restaurants have already seen such benefits for a while now."

In addition to gift cards, Givex also provides other solutions for all aspects of a merchant's business including: loyalty cards, e-gift certificates, frequency cards, return cards, employee incentives, expense accounts, promotional cards and coupons.
