Jewelers For Child LogoReading Time: 3 minutes

(PROVO, Utah) – Jewel360, the all-in-one, cloud-based point-of-sale (POS) software built to meet the needs of modern jewelry retailers, announced a new integration, in partnership with Jewelers for Children (JFC), that provides jewelers the ability to prompt donations on Jewel360 point of sale systems.

As the jewelry retail world has modernized, customers rarely carry change or pay in cash, meaning that a digital alternative to outdated donation canisters gives customers a way to give back. The integration with Jewelers for Children, which will be available to all Jewel360 customers, prompts consumers to round up their credit card purchases on the POS terminal at the time of sale, noting that the donation will be made to Jewelers for Children.

“We’re excited to be partnering with Jewel360 to bring this integration to jewelry stores around the nation. Enabling consumers to have a direct way to donate, as they desire, is paramount to bringing more resources to the children,” said Sara Murphy, Executive Director at Jewelers for Children.

Jewelers for Children was founded in 1999 by the U.S. jewelry industry with the mission of helping children in need. Since its inception, the organization has donated more than $61 million to programs benefiting children whose lives have been affected by illness, abuse, or neglect. The nationwide success is due to the continuing generosity of jewelry trade organizations, jewelry and watch manufacturing companies, jewelry retail stores, individual jewelry professionals and jewelry consumers.

“The way consumers shop has continued to drastically change,” said Nick Gurney, General Manager of Jewel360. “Everything from credit cards to eCommerce has made it difficult for jewelry store businesses to collect donations. This new integration allows jewelers to not only support Jewelers for Children, but makes it simple for consumers to donate at the time of their purchase.”

We love the wide range of jewelry metals today that give consumers tremendous options for creating the exact piece of their dreams. Metal alloys are some of the more exciting variations for imaginative jewelry designers to work with. These options better reflect the tastes of a client and help them to personalize their jewelry, making it truly unique to them.

Natural Alloy One topic catching my eye at the moment is a rare and naturally occurring metal alloy – electrum. This word, electrum may be uncommon to modern society, but it’s a Latin word derived from the Greek electron mentioned in the Odyssey referring to a metallic substance consisting of gold alloyed with silver. Electrum was usually called white gold in antiquity. But more accurately it was described as pale gold since ...
