Worth knowing: the Atento card is swapped online for a merchant voucher before the visit. It takes two minutes, then you simply show the merchant voucher at the till.

The whole neighborhood

Food first. Then everything else.

Food and drink carries the card today: 1,619 restaurants, cafes, bars and kiosks in Bochum. Beauty, wellness, shopping and experiences are on it too, and growing district by district.

Why Atento

Every gift card is a vote for the high street.

When a card is redeemed in Bochum, the money does not land in a logistics centre off the A40. It lands at the cafe in the Bermudadreieck, the record shop in Ehrenfeld, the kiosk in Langendreer, the beauty studio in Weitmar.

No warehouse. No corporation. Just the favorite places in your city.

How it works

Three steps to the right gift

  1. 1

    Buy the gift card

    Pick an amount, then personalize it with a message, a photo and a design. Free of charge.

  2. 2

    The recipient picks a favorite

    They browse the places in Bochum and swap the card online for the place they pick. It takes two minutes, and the balance can be split across several places.

  3. 3

    Pay and enjoy

    Most places issue a digital Visa card, valid for that one shop. Add it to Apple Pay or Google Pay and pay at the till like with any other card. Where that is not live yet, you show a voucher instead.

Important: the Atento card is not redeemed directly in store. The online swap is required and takes two minutes. Swap it here

Occasions

Right for any occasion in Bochum.

Birthday gift

Same-day PDF with a personal message. The recipient chooses between dinner, a massage or a record shop.

Christmas gift

No parcel, no shipping deadline, no carton from a warehouse. Digital on the 24th or printed by post.

Wedding gift

Larger amounts split across several places: dinner in Ehrenfeld, a spa appointment, an experience.

Mother's Day

A massage, breakfast or flowers from the florist in the district, instead of an order that spends two days in transit.

Saying thank you

For the neighbor who takes in your parcels. In Bochum 25 € covers lunch and a catch-up.

New in Bochum

The most useful housewarming gift in the city: the budget to explore a new district, across all five categories.

All the details

Bochum gift card: support local, give something personal

Bochum lives on the shops that exist only once. The cafe in the Bermudadreieck, the record shop in Ehrenfeld, the kiosk on the corner, the sauna in a Weitmar courtyard. The Bochum gift card from Atento is the key to exactly those places: one card, 1,660 options, all owner-run.

Discover the best of your neighborhood

The card covers five categories, not just food:

  • Restaurants, cafes, bars and kiosks across every district
  • Barbers, hairdressers and beauty studios in the district
  • Massage, sauna and yoga for the end of a shift
  • Bookshops, concept stores, record shops and florists
  • Classes, workshops, cinemas and small stages

Why this matters in Bochum

Bochum lost the Opel plant and kept the Bermudadreieck. The food and the small shops standing here were built up by individuals over decades, not dropped in by an investor.

A gift card that only works at independent businesses reverses that flow. The money stays on the street where it is spent, and goes to people who actually work there.

Then there is the plain practicality: Bochum sits inside the Ruhr and its districts run into one another. Nobody living in Langendreer goes to Weitmar for a gift card. With 1,660 places across the city, everyone finds something within walking distance.

And the choice stays with the recipient. You are not gifting a decision, you are gifting the freedom to pick between dinner, a massage and a record shop.

A gift that gives back

With the Bochum gift card you give more than a present. You back local business owners, you keep money in the city, and you help small operators stay open. A gift that feels good to give and better to get.
