Closed-loop home & furniture, universally recognised, fits in-kind frameworks.
IKEA is the global home and furniture brand. An IKEA gift card is closed-loop, redeemable in any IKEA store and on ikea.com in the country of issue.
Because IKEA is a single retailer, the card qualifies as an in-kind benefit in every market that has an in-kind framework: Sachbezug in Germany, WKR in the Netherlands, chèque cadeau via CSE in France for recognised events, trivial benefits in the UK.
