Over the course of his career, Thiegs has earned a reputation as a pioneer in the industry, having brought to market one of the first B2B gift card APIs while at National Gift Card (NGC). He also helped develop the Gift Card Maturity Model for TOTUS, which was the first holistic approach allowing brands to build a frictionless gift card ecosystem across multiple partners, phases, and elements. Thiegs has been a featured speaker and presenter at industry events, webinars, roundtables, and conferences for NRF, Loyalty360, IMA, IGCC, RGCA, and GCVA, to name a few.
Thiegs has a unique background in incentives and payments. He held the position of Head of Partnerships for Flexa, a fraud-proof payments network that processes digital currency transactions at a merchant’s native point-of-sale system. He was also Chief Revenue Officer for NGC for nearly eight years and helped grow the business by 420% to $1B in annual B2B gift card sales and fulfillment.
“Once buyers and clients experience the NeoCurrency platform, they’ll understand why I became a brand ambassador,” Thiegs said. “I’m excited to showcase the world-class gift card API, reporting and ordering dashboard. The platform is built on an intuitive user experience offering gift cards, rewards, and payments. Plus, I’ll be joining a team that puts innovation at the forefront of its company culture.”
