Iconic global sports brand. Closed-loop across Nike stores and nike.com.
Nike Gift Cards apply across Nike-owned stores, Nike Factory Stores and nike.com in the recipient's market. Recognition is near-universal, which makes Nike a safe default for diverse audiences and for sport-aligned recognition moments.
As a single-brand closed-loop card, Nike qualifies as Sachbezug in Germany within €50/month, slots into the Dutch WKR vrije ruimte and fits the UK trivial benefits rule (£50). In France it can be issued via a CSE chèque-cadeau program for URSSAF-recognised events.
On gift.cards we route the correct national Nike storefront per recipient country and consolidate ordering on one invoice with per-program reporting.
