From being impersonal to thoughtless, gift cards sometimes get a bad rap. But the right gift card is none of these things and is actually one of the best present options out there, for multiple reasons too.
First of all, a gift card offers freedom of choice and freedom from unwanted gifts. Secondly, gift cards cover distances much better than other gifts making them the ideal present for those that live far away. And thirdly, a gift card can also be used for experiences, which is where the Fever Gift Card comes into its own.
While the Fever Gift Card is a fantastic pressie, it’s also super practical because the person who receives the gift card doesn’t have to use it immediately. They can hold onto it and use it whenever they want to use it, and they don’t have to use all the money on the gift card at once, either. They can use it sparingly, use it for multiple experiences or use it to pay for part of something bigger.
But will the Fever experiences suit the individual you’re buying for? We’re so happy you asked. Fever has a diverese range of activities, tours and exhibitions that suit all ages and interests. To give you a feel for what we mean, here’s a roundup of 5 experiences that can be purchased with a gift card:

Introducing a digital art exhibition in a way you have never experienced before. TELEPORT invites viewers to participate in a narrative-driven adventure. You will be transported into the mystical dimensions of a hi-tech alien tribe, and submit yourself to the guidance of cyber shamans.
Moving through the experience, you will be able to interact with the artworks of light, sound, and movement. Provoking responses and exploring possibilities in various ways.
