Getting started
Sell your first gift card
A gift card is a normal WooCommerce product with the Gift card box ticked.
1. Create the product
- Go to Products › Add New.
- Give it a name, for example Gift card.
- In Product data, tick Gift card.
2. Choose amounts and a design
- On the Gift card tab, set the amounts buyers can pick, and allow a custom amount if you want.
- Pick a design: Colour card, Gift ribbon or Christmas, and its colour.
- Click Use this card as the product image so shop listings show the card.
3. Publish and test
- Click Publish.
- Buy the card in your shop with a test payment and check the email that arrives.
- Open Gift cards › Cards: the new card, its balance and its history are there.
What the recipient gets
An email with an Open your gift card button. It opens a page made for them with the card, the message, how to use it and a print button. The code is on that page and not in the email, unless you turn on Code in the email under WooCommerce › Settings › Gift cards.
