It is important for us to provide a fully digital platform that allows our customers to be able to not only buy gift cards digitally, but also participate in our raffle-based promotions online. We have also added the concept of Endless Aisle in our stores allowing customers to check out from anywhere in the store for products that will be delivered to their desired location free of charge,” says Kiran Borkar, head of e-commerce, Jumbo Group.

Jumbo’s Digital Gift Card will allow customers the chance to buy products online or in-store and redeem it either at Jumbo’s online store or at any physical outlets.

The gift card can be used to purchase the gift online or at the store and is valued at AED50 / AED100 / AED200 / AED500.

Jumbo’s digital initiative is in line with the company’s mission to reduce the usage on paper and support the UAE Government’s vision for a digital future.
