The hotel gift card market includes physical and digital gift cards and caters to a wide range of customer demographics, from individual consumers to corporate buyers.

Market Growth Drivers:

The global hotel gift card market is propelled by several key factors, including the rise in consumer preference for experiential gifts, which are often perceived as more meaningful than physical products.
