Spend in Singleton Digital Program
You asked, and Why Leave Town has delivered! We’re excited to announce the launch of the digital version of the Spend in Singleton program.
Since its launch in 2020, the physical card program has injected over $1.2 million into the local economy. However, one limitation has been its inability to support Square readers and similar POS systems. With the new digital program, we are closing that gap, allowing all types of POS systems to benefit from the program.
Read on for everything you need to know, whether you're a consumer looking to buy a digital gift card or a business wanting to get involved.
