Which companies have a slice of the Gift Card industry

I am in a power chair so I have to be selective in the sorts of projects I take on but doing the Gift Card servicing has become second nature to me. I have even been able to completely set up a new display from just out of the box. My problem is Castforce went away and I have not been able to reach the Cast folks.

From what I gather several companies do this for different chains, For example, the Wal-Mart stores might be with one client, Blackhawk may be responsible for other chains, and they divide up their work between multiple merchandising companies.

I cover a wide area of rural southern appalachia in the Blue Ridge and Great Smokey Mountain national park in GA, SC & NC. I would really appreciate knowing what doors I need to go knock on as the loss of Castforce has really hurt me in 2016.

Lawrence Merchandising services Blackhawk Accounts, but they only pay $10-11 per hour. The list of tasks they expect you to complete is very long and the allotted time is extremely low, such as an hour service call once or twice a month for a store that may have multiple endcaps and many other POGs.

I understand Crossmark took on the gift cards from Castforce. Correct me if I am wrong.

They took some of them I think. They do Green Dot at CVS did do it at Walmart but no more, or it might be state by state. Crossmark did do Blackhawk for awhile last year.
