Givex Gift Cards Integrated with Volanté POS Systems for the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO)

14 Oct 2009 (Toronto, ON) - Volanté Systems, a leading hospitality technology provider, 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 Volanté Systems.

Volanté Systems is an all-in-one enterprise solution tailored for the many complex and varied businesses in the hospitality industry. Supreme flexibility and reliability have made Volanté the choice for merchants as diverse as multiple location hotels and spas, large theme parks and even the AGO.

"We're very excited to be working with Volanté Systems and the AGO," says Brittain Brown, VP Marketing and Product Development, Givex. "Art is such a matter of personal taste that it can be difficult to purchase for another person. A gift card truly allows the recipient to delight themselves with whatever moves them, be it a must-have item from Shop AGO, a course at the AGO or even another visit."

"Visitors are truly delighted with the AGO gift card," says Kirstin Mearns, General Manager, Retail, AGO. "Gift cards are being reloaded with additional cash and re-used many times at FRANK Restaurant, Café AGO, our espresso bar and Shop AGO. It's the perfect gift!"

"Gift cards have universal appeal regardless of the business," says Annette Ennamorato, VP Sales, Volanté Systems. "Anyone in the hospitality industry will benefit from the customer acquisition and retention that a gift card program can provide."

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.
