Yiftee, Keep Local Dollars Local — Local services in Menlo Park

Yiftee provides a great platform that supports and helps increase awareness of small businesses. Through this platform, the Town of Cutler Bay was able to create a program—Cutler Bay Cash—where $500 gift cards were distributed to qualifying residents that were impacted by the pandemic to spend at small businesses within Cutler Bay. It was only through this program that we were able to successfully and easily distribute the funds and ensure they went to only the qualifying small businesses. The Team at Yiftee was flexible and accommodating when we had requests to make changes so that it would fit our program. Additionally, the platform provides a dashboard that is easy to navigate and very detailed reports that provide important data that helped us craft better strategies. Thank...

Any other Gift card system you get the money deposited into the account the very next business day! Somehow they are recommended by TSYS/CAYAN! it's...

Love that gift cards can be used at any of our Downtown businesses that are participating and don't have to be redeemed at only one location. I'm not sure what Dan below is talking about. With our Yiftee program merchants pay nothing but their normal credit processing fees for manual entry. Like if you were at a restaurant and your bank debit card's strip/chip didn't work and they had to manually enter your card number. I had no problem paying a small service fee (just like when you buy event or concert tickets through a service like EventBrite or TicketMaster or the ease of paying utility bills online) because I know the gift cards can only be used at local businesses. The money goes directly back into our community instead of Amazon...
