@Edent guessing something electronic to keep your logistics reasonable? How about https://www.nationalbooktokens.com/ (covers Β£ and β¬) which would cover physical books (and maybe some eBooks options?)
@imikotoba @Edent Yes, I would prefer a National Book Token to a Kobo one but it only works in the UK and Ireland.

@imikotoba @Edent But seeing now that Kobo sells DRM-free eBooks from Tor Publishing and "standard" Adobe DRM from other publishers, so I don't need one of their e-readers, Kobo also looks good.

I'm going to start doing some user research for #ActivityBot. I'd like to pay participants Β£20 / β¬20 for an hour of their time.
This has to be a voucher (no cash or cash-like cards) so which would you prefer?
@Edent een kadobon, maar let op geldigheidsduur: https://blog.gifty.nl/cadeaubonnen-wat-je-moet-weten-over-geldigheid-en-vervaldatum/

@wiert I don't really understand what you're trying to say, sorry. It is up to a recipient if they don't want to spend it in time.

@Edent sorry, thought you were Dutch. People are bad at remembering expiry dates, especially when they are years in the future. Luckily, there are still a few Dutch gift cards that don't expire.

@Edent Wouldn't it skew the demographics of people who volunteer to test if you pick one kind of voucher, instead of offering a selection?

@Edent Amazon voucher might have the widest appeal, unless you prefer not to support that company
@richardloxley @Edent I avoid buying from Amazon. Recently got done gift vouchers and as it has been so long since I last purchased through them I had to update the card and in doing so it ignored the gift card balance. So annoyed as by the time I noticed it was too late to change it.

@Edent the Office for National Statistics, when they do surveys, give you one of these vouchers -- https://www.pluxee.uk/products/evouchers/ -- which the recipient can then choose from a bunch of different stores and restaurants and such. I turned mine into an M&S one one time and had a lovely dinner

No idea whether you have to buy 10,000 at a time or something, mind, or whether it'd work for you, but I found it useful, and the ONS presumably (hopefully?) did at least some due diligence on them being OK
