Gift cards and loyalty programs are increasingly popular as a way to get customers in the door—whether that door is physical or virtual. The area is heavily regulated under both federal and state law, and closely watched by an active consumer class action bar.

This session covers the landscape and the newest developments in this complex and specialized area.
