Robust growth in the e-commerce market is expected to boost gift card adoption among consumers in Turkey
The e-commerce industry has been on a consistent growth over the last few quarters, as more and more consumers are shifting to online shopping due to the coronavirus outbreak in the country. According to the publisher's projection, the e-commerce revenue exceeded US$20 billion in 2021 in Turkey. It is expected that the shift in consumers' shopping behavior to continue even in the post-pandemic era. Consequently, the publisher is projecting further growth in the e-commerce sector in Turkey over the next four to eight quarters.
The growing trend of online shopping is also expected to further boost the adoption of gift cards, specifically digital gift cards, in Turkey from the short to medium-term perspective. It is because retailers are using gift cards as a customer acquisition tool to boost their sales in times of the global pandemic. The publisher, therefore, expects the gift card market to record strong growth over the next four to eight quarters in Turkey.
Consumers exchanging crypto for gift cards expected to boost gift card market growth in Turkey
One of the reasons why gift cards have grown into popularity over the last four to eight quarters is their innovative use cases. For instance, gift cards can be used to buy cryptocurrencies as well as convert cryptocurrencies into gift cards to make purchases. Similar use cases in Turkey have been boosting the gift card market growth over the last four to six quarters.
Consumers are looking for easier ways to invest in Bitcoin and other altcoins and similarly want simpler ways to spend their holdings. Notably, platforms such as Paxful are allowing consumers to buy crypto using gift cards. On the other hand, Bitrefill, the global payments platform, allows consumers to exchange Bitcoin for branded gift cards, which can then be used to complete purchases. Some of the brands for which consumers can buy gift cards through Bitrefill include Carrefour, Amazon, Google Play, Boyner, IKEA, and Turk Telecom, among several others.
Consequently, as the popularity of cryptocurrencies continues to grow in Turkey, the publisher expects it to support the overall growth of the gift card market over the next four to eight quarters.
