The Chamber's Gift Check program is available to all Chamber members as a benefit of your membership. The Defiance Area Chamber of Commerce Gift Checks can do just that while keeping your hard earned dollars in our local economy!
Benefits in Participating:
- It’s good for our Chamber as we are able to offer an additional benefit at no charge to our members while promoting the local community.
- It’s good for our members as they take advantage of a free benefit that is designed to drive traffic through member’s doors as a result of our promotion of the program.
- It is great for our community, as this program promotes shopping local!
How to Redeem:
- Each Chamber Gift Check will come with a blank "Pay to the Order of" line. This line is for the merchant name that is redeeming the gift check.
- As the merchant, if a purchase is for a lesser amount than the value of the check, the merchant can give the customer the appropriate amount of change back or take the appropriate remaining balance and place it on an instore credit or gift card. The merchant then simply stamps the back of the Chamber Gift Check and adds it to their deposit.
- NOTE: Chamber Gift Checks can be redeemed for merchandise or services only. They cannot be redeemed for cash. Lost or stolen checks cannot be reissued.
All the Best,
Chris Van Scoder
