It is still early days for the cards’ return, but 600 offers were viewed over the weekend, and top performing vouchers were for cafes and sandwich shops, with Ten Green Bottles in Time Cafe Bar in the lead.

Mr Chatburn added: “When we installed the Touchpoints during the week, we saw how they have already become a talking point with their branding supporting the new card and displaying digital advertisements for local retailers and town events.

“It really has been a fantastic start in Mansfield.”

Shoppers now have access to 200 different vouchers from over a hundred different retailers, using the touchpoints at Mansfield Library, the bus station and Four Seasons Shopping Centre.
