Full-Service Implementation
Blackhawk Network is equipped to provide virtually all of the services a retailer needs to implement a card program. We can create the entire program ourselves or work closely with a card partner, providing whatever specific services they require.
We can provide informed suggestions regarding card design based on our experience, and we frequently work with our partners' in-house design studios and brand departments. Once the card and systems are in place, we manage all the marketing, merchandising and inventory control. We can even provide direct-to-store card deliveries when necessary.
Our proprietary Payment in a Box technology makes it extremely easy and cost-efficient for retail distribution partners to set up a working system for card activations and payments. For just a few hundred dollars a unit, partners can set up shop virtually anywhere, allowing for great flexibility to implement innovative programs. For instance, this technology has been critical to the success of our sports cards partners, allowing them to place units at ticket booths, concession stands and branded stores at minimal cost.
Simply put, at Blackhawk Network our goal is to make our program as easy and convenient for our partners as our products are for consumers.
