Overview
This article explains how customers use gift card vouchers when shopping on your store.
How Customers Redeem a Gift Card
- The customer selects their products and proceeds to checkout
- At checkout, there is a field to enter a gift card code
- The customer enters their unique voucher code
- The gift card value is deducted from the order total
- If the order total exceeds the gift card value, the customer pays the remaining balance using another payment method
- If the gift card value exceeds the order total, the remaining balance stays on the gift card for future use
Gift Card Terms
- Gift cards are valid for 36 months after purchase (as required by South African law)
- Gift cards can be used for multiple purchases until the balance is depleted
- Gift card codes are unique and single-use per transaction
- Disabled gift cards that were already purchased remain valid
Customers can check their gift card balance by contacting you or using the balance check feature if enabled on your store.
