Swire Properties’ White Christmas Fair has been an annual highlight since 2013, bringing festive cheer to the community. In line with its commitment to sustainability and enhancing the event experience, Swire Properties has embraced On-us’ e-voucher solution since 2023, transforming the fair into an eco-friendly experience, setting a new standard for zero-waste food and beverage (F&B) events.

• Manual logistic and administrative efforts needed for high-customer traffic
• Complex onboarding of temporary merchants in short duration
• Tracking and reporting of visitor payment and engagement data

To meet operational needs while transitioning into a fully digital, streamlined event experience, and to reinforce its sustainability commitments, Swire Properties sought value-aligned technology partners capable of delivering innovative payment solutions to support the event.
