What about the old intu gift cards?
As of 26/10/20, the centre is no longer part of intu and is now managed by Savills.
However, if you have an old intu Metrocentre gift card, this is valid for a year from purchase. Your existing intu Gift Cards can still be spent in participating stores at Metrocentre until the expiry date on your card is reached. Check your intu gift card balance here, or if you need to activate your gift card, you can do so by clicking here.
intu Gift Cards are issued by EML Payments Europe Limited (EML) who are the parent company of Flex-e-Card Limited, the UK-based provider of gift card services to intu – you will see Flex-e-Card’s name on the reverse of intu gift cards.
All funds associated with these cards are held in a designated client account under the control of EML only. EML settles with Mastercard on a daily basis for all transactions that occur on these gift cards.
This process is entirely independent of intu and will continue to happen regardless of ownership or control of intu. EML’s obligation is to its cardholders as per the terms and conditions of its cards, and to Mastercard as per its membership agreement.
As a result, there is no risk to any retail or leisure occupier of any intu centre to continue to accept intu Gift Cards, as all funds are entirely separate from those held by the intu business.
Please find below the details for Flex-e-Card should you have any further queries.
