SayShopping vouchers are an excellent way to motivate and reward people. And at Sodexho we track each of the vouchers we issue. For our corporate clients that require it, we can produce reports about how the vouchers are spent. This is a great feature to measure and to maximise the success of incentive schemes!

 

 

SayShopping gift vouchers are exchangeable for goods and/or services. As such they are considered as “non-cash vouchers”.
Non-cash vouchers are treated as benefits in kind, so income tax and NICs are due on the taxable value of the vouchers given to any director or employee earning more than the legal threshold per annum.

The taxable value is the lesser of the cost of the voucher or its face value. Therefore, where the employer purchases the voucher at a discount, only the discounted value is subject to tax and NICs.

Detailed information is available from the Incentive Valuation Unit, telephone +44 (0)161 2613269.

Useful leaflets and guides can also be obtained from the Inland Revenue Website on http://www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk/

SayShopping vouchers have a three year validity period and the expiry date is printed on the back of each voucher. That is plenty of time to enjoy them!

What denominations are SayShopping Vouchers available in?
The vouchers come in denominations of £2, £5, £10 and £20.

Can I use SayShopping vouchers outside of the UK?

Can I book a holiday or a hotel room with SayShopping vouchers?
Yes you can, visit the Travel and Holidays section in "Shopping Ideas" to see which retailers and service providers you can use.

What happens if I lose my vouchers?
