Yesterday, results from a consumer study done in Nov ’09 by Javelin Strategy & Research were published at Internet Retailer.

Quick highlights:

  • Javelin predicts online gift card sales will grow at a 29% CAGR over the next several years and will reach $5.86B in 2014 (online gift card sales were $1.6B in 2009)
  • 41% of their respondents indicated they had used a gift card on an ecommerce site within the last year
  • Consumers completed 1.2 transactions per month with an online gift card, on average
