Enable/Disable Gift Cards

Gift Card Settings

General Gift Card Settings

The first option specifies who can use a gift-card code. You can choose that only the recipient of the gift-card (this will require the recipient to use an account with an email that matches the recipient email address on the gift-card). The second option allows any body that types in a valid gift-card code to use the gift-card (this is perfect for groups that may share a gift-card or if a family-member/friend cannot remember the email address of the recipient).

The next set of options control the minimum and maximum values allowed for purchasing a gift-card. A used gift-card may have a value less than the minimum, but a gift-card at purchase-time must not be less than the value specified.

The last option (Default Expiration Time) allows the store-owner to specify the default expiration time of a gift-card. Leave this blank if no default is desired.

Gift Card Image Options

The next section allows an image to be displayed for a gift-card. A store-owner may have no image, select a provided image, or upload their own. The image (if one is selected) will display on the page used to purchase gift-cards, the emailed order receipt, and the gift-card activation confirmation email sent to the recipient.
