The gift card market in India has been growing hotter for the last two years. In between 2015 and 2019, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25.5% has been recorded.
As more people have been relying on technology to get around the issues that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought, e-gift cards are seen as the fuss-free solution to giving presents without breaking the social distancing rule.
The Indian e-voucher market is predicted to hit around US$9.34 billion in value by 2024 as its popularity shows no sign of waning and more are getting accustomed to using e-vouchers in their everyday lives.
With the growing use of e-gift cards, CoinGate strikes while the iron is hot— by selling more than 140 varieties of e-gift cards that can be bought in crypto.
In the midst of the RBI banking ban on crypto by the Indian Supreme Court, this is a glimmering sign of hope for Indian traders and exchange operators. It is through electronic gift cards that cryptocurrency can perhaps find its value in India.
