PORTLAND, Ore., March 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- InComm, a leading prepaid product and transaction services company, today announced the launch of Corporate B2B Store. The turnkey ecommerce solution helps brands sell their own gift cards to their corporate and promotions clients. It enables individual and bulk fulfillment of both digital and physical cards, as well as management and reporting of the gift card program, all through one platform.

Benefits of Corporate B2B Store include:

Allows you to scale your corporate sales program without adding additional staff or resources
Streamlines input and data capture, eliminating manual data entry into multiple systems
Decreases financial risks associated with stolen or lost gift cards by allowing delayed activation of cards
Eliminates the need for IT resources and ongoing maintenance

"Sales to corporate and promotions clients have always been an important part of a retailer's gift card program," said Mike Fletcher, General Manager, InComm Digital Solutions. "What's more, gift cards provided through corporate programs can reach customers who have previously not engaged with the retailer, so they not only have a big impact on revenue, but also help promote new brand loyalties. Unfortunately, many retailers today have limited resources to manage their corporate gift card programs. In addition, they are relying on manual processes across multiple disparate systems to accommodate just one specific task at a time. We're pleased to now offer Corporate B2B Store because it streamlines the entire B2B gift card fulfillment and management workflow through one, easy-to-use system, allowing retailers to speed internal processes and increase efficiency."

Additional features of Corporate B2B Store include:

Co-branding is available for both digital and physical cards
Digital and physical fulfillment can be either "many-to-one" (bulk) or "one-to-many" (individual)
Corporate accounts can be set up with associated payment terms and discount tiers
Digital gift card orders can be customized with photos, text or company logo
Order statuses can be viewed for easy tracking
Both variable and set denominated cards are available

"Our Corporate B2B Store gives retailers more flexibility to sell both physical and digital gift cards, which, in the past, required working with multiple vendors and solutions," said Fletcher. "As more retailers' clients run campaigns online or via email, we're seeing an increased demand for digital cards, so the ability to easily and cost-effectively offer and manage both is a huge benefit."
