IGA gift cards by country

IGA is a grocery network that brings independent store owners together under a shared brand; it is present in Australia, Canada and a number of other countries. Formats range from small neighbourhood shops to full-size supermarkets. The range is typical of grocery retail: fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and fish, dairy, bread and baked goods, dry goods, frozen food, drinks, household chemicals, homewares and pet supplies. The gift card pays for an ordinary grocery basket in participating stores of the network. Because the outlets belong to different owners, card acceptance and the set of eligible categories can vary from store to store: some items — tobacco, lottery tickets or other gift cards, for instance — are often excluded from payment. The card's currency determines the country: AUD for Australia, CAD for Canada.
