🎁 How to sell gift cards aka gift vouchers
Gift cards, also known as gift vouchers, offer a powerful way to increase revenue while attracting new customers to your events or services. By allowing customers to purchase and give gift cards to friends, family, or colleagues, you're not only generating immediate sales but also encouraging repeat visits and brand loyalty. Gift cards act as a gateway for new clients who may not have experienced your offerings otherwise. They provide flexibility to the recipient, making them a popular and convenient option for gifting, and giving you the chance to engage with a wider audience.

Create your first Gift Card by filling the essential details.
Value

This value may be subject to taxes if you choose to apply taxes on top of the gift card's value.
In this example, VAT is added on top of the gift card value, so the buyer will pay £120.00 at checkout. However, the redeemable value stored on the gift card will be £100.00.

You can optionally define an expiration date for the generated voucher.

The code will be active for X years from the moment of the purchase.
On a specific date
