Membership Benefits

Benefits of Membership

CardGains is proud to be part of Bridewell UK, a member-owned organisation established in 1984. Our group is guided by a Board of Directors made up of two executive directors and two non-executive directors who are themselves trading members, helping ensure we remain closely connected to the needs of independent retailers.

Bridewell UK and CardGains are wholly owned by retail members who have chosen to buy shares. Across both companies, 188,000 shares are currently in circulation, and shareholders receive an annual dividend based on the company’s trading performance.

As a CardGains member, you’ll enjoy exclusive preferential terms from our supplier portfolio. These benefits are negotiated using the strength of our nationwide membership, giving independents access to deals that go beyond typical market offerings.

CardGains Bonus Opportunities

On top of our negotiated discounts, CardGains operates a member retro bonus scheme. Whether you run one shop or several, your entire annual turnover is combined into one total to help you make the most of your bonus potential. Bonuses are paid each March for the previous trading year, and you can keep track of your progress through your monthly statements.

Please note: Members suspended at any point during the year are not eligible for the CardGains bonus.

Supplier Bonus Opportunities

Many of our suppliers also offer their own bonus schemes, giving members even more chances to benefit throughout the year.
