Rebates

Give choice. Get results.

Visa Incentive cards can help you develop an attractive, easy–to–administer card-based rebate program that drives sales while streamlining costs and building brand awareness. Consumers consistently say they prefer general-use rebate cards to merchant-specific cards or checks¹, so they also have a higher perceived value.

How they're used

Visa Incentive cards can be an effective tool for motivating and rewarding specific consumer behavior, such as the purchase of a particular product or service. For example, consumers could receive a $50 rebate card for the purchase of a specific product during a designated promotional period. Use Visa Incentive cards as a cost effective replacement to time-consuming, paper-based rebate checks and improve program efficiency and distribution.
