Digital Vouchers: Definitions

a document that enables you to purchase a service or good, usually proving that it has already been paid for.

Digital Vouchers are widely available in the UK, with numerous companies allowing us to purchase a voucher for a service or good, at a reduced price to its normal value. The voucher can then be redeemed with the merchant.

Digital Vouchers: Definitions

a document entitling the holder to a discount off a particular product or service

Unlike vouchers, coupons in the UK don’t tend to have

any large, well-known, dedicated websites. And, as we will see, are less likely to be

used online.
