Finally the rewards program that you’ve always wanted! iSwirl Technologies and The Gratitude Card is working with multiple local merchants to drive donations in your door without you having to ask for them. Many of your supporters shop with local merchants, especially the ones that give back to local charities. iSwirl Technologies tracks those sales and highlights those amazing merchants willing to show gratitude through charitable donations. The merchant only needs one thing to keep this swirl of gratitude happening–a sale. Direct your supporters and constituents to shop with iSwirl merchants and passive donations will come back to you.
