Cleveland Cash Q&A

 

For Consumers:

Q. What is Cleveland Cash?

A. Cleveland Cash is basically a gift certificate that is good at many of Cleveland’s locally owned businesses. 

 

Q. How do I purchase Cleveland Cash?

A. Call or go by the Cleveland/Bolivar County Chamber of Commerce.

 

Q. How do I know which businesses are participating in Cleveland Cash?

A. Below is a list of stores who are already accepting Cleveland Cash (check back because this list will grow!), or you can look for the “We accept Cleveland Cash” on the door of the store.

 

Q. I have a Cleveland Cash certificate, what happens if I make a purchase for less than my certificate?

A. Cleveland Cash and/or the change from a purchase is not redeemable for cash, so you will receive change in the form of that store’s gift certificate.

 

For Merchants:

Q. How do I receive payment for the Cleveland Cash certificates?

A. Call or E-mail Anne Dilworth at the Chamber with the amount you have received, and she will come collect the certificates and bring you a check.  PLEASE don’t call her more than once per week!!!  662-843-2712 or anne@clevelandmschamber.com

 

Q. A customer uses the Cleveland Cash certificate, but is owed change.  What do I do?

A. Give change in the form of store credit or gift certificate at your store.

 

Q. I am a merchant who didn’t sign up to accept Cleveland Cash, can I still accept it?

A. YES!!!  Accept the certificate just like cash.   Also, call Anne at 662-843-2712, and she will get you a store sign and add you to the website list below.

 

Q. How do I determine if the Cleveland Cash certificate is authentic?

A. The certificates are all numbered and printed on copy protected paper.  Here are some of the easiest ways to check to see if the certificate is authentic:

   - Hidden "VOID" image printed in background of the document
   - Fine-line border design which will distort when copied
   - Heat-reactive "PROTECTED" logo that will disappear when rubbed

   - Call the Chamber to make sure that certificate number is valid
