Drive self-use with gift cards

Consumers no longer buy gift cards only as gifts. They buy them for themselves, to stretch a budget on the things they already spend on. Give your customers a way to do it through you.

Self Use Page_Hero

A shift in how people buy

Not a gift. A spending decision.

Self use turned gift cards from an occasion purchase into a spending tool. People buy them for their weekly shop, their commute, their subscriptions, because a discounted card is a discount on money they were always going to spend.

That behavior is consistent, it is repeatable, and it is already happening in your customer base.

Everyday categories

Groceries, fuel, coffee, fashion, streaming. Self use is driven by the brands people spend with weekly, not the ones they save for birthdays.

Year-round demand

Gifting peaks and drops. Self use holds. It gives you a reason to engage customers in February or July, not just December.

Instant delivery

Digital codes delivered in seconds, redeemable in store or online, so the saving lands at the exact moment your customer decides to spend.

Global reach

Our brand catalog keeps expanding into new markets, so the self use habit travels with your customers wherever your business grows.

How it works

Turn a spending habit into a reason to stay

Self use works because the value is immediate and repeatable. A customer buys a discounted card, spends it on something they were buying anyway, and keeps more of their money. 

One integration, 4,000+ brands.
Self use only works if the brands are the ones people actually shop with. One contract gives you access to Tillo's entire catalog, including the everyday names that drive repeat behavior.
Digital top ups build the habit.
At participating retailers, customers can reload an existing gift card instead of starting over. Fewer steps, one balance to manage, and a self use behavior that turns into routine.
Exclusive promotions.
Our team works brand side to secure promotional rates you won't find elsewhere, giving you moments through the year where the saving is big enough to pull forward spend and bring customers back.
