Two Rivers Mall Gift Card

Two Rivers Mall recently launched a Gift Card with eGiftAfrica. It is one of the most versatile gift cards in Kenya and allows one card to be redeemed at over 80 outlets at the mall. It is the perfect gift for family, friends & staff.

The partnership offers the options of the card being bought from the mall customer service desk as well as an eGift option.

This means that one can simply log onto Two Rivers Mall Gift Card from anywhere in the world and purchase the gift card for a loved one. Payment can be done via credit card or Mpesa mobile money and the recipient will receive the gift card in their email with a QR code.

The gift card offers more value through access to a variety of retailers and is redeemable in over 60 participating stores within the mall such as Chandarana Supermarket, Bata, La Elegant, Delvis Exclusive, Dr Jays, Manix and a variety of over 13 food and beverage restaurants.

The minimum gift card value can also be used to treat children to a fun day at Magic Planet and access an array of video games, trampoline, bumper cars and drop tower.

It gets better, one can redeem the cards full value or partially depending on their preference due to the extended validity period of 6 months from the date of purchase, unlike most shopping vouchers, the Gift Card is digitally monitored with every purchase redeemed real time hence the customer can keep track of his balance.

The perfect gift card for everyone 

Sharouk Jiwa – CEO of eGiftAfrica says, ”

Just imagine how many Kenyans living in the diaspora would like to gift their loved one living in Kenya, but are stuck with limited options?

Sharouk Jiwa – CEO of eGiftAfrica says,

“When we first launched operations in Kenya, we knew we would bring the best in class technology that would benefit many merchants.

By partnering with Two Rivers, it is a win-win for the mall, merchants and the end customer. It has always been difficult to gift someone living in Africa from outside the continent, but we have solved the problem with our eGifting solution.”

Rosemary Mutava – Customer Service Manager at Two Rivers says,

“We are excited to be working with eGiftAfrica and are amazed at the uptake of this product. Customers are lining up to buy the gift card, corporate companies are calling everyday to purchase the same for their staff and valuable clients.
