Must know
  • Gift Cards are available on plans that include Gift Cards — if you don’t see them in your dashboard, ask your Uplifter contact.
  • Cards are minted only when the order reaches Paid. A webhook replay can’t double-mint: each purchase line mints at most one card.
  • Each gift-card cart line mints exactly one card — there’s no quantity stepper on a gift-card line.
  • Gift-card purchase lines are never taxed; they’re a deferred liability, not revenue, so they’re excluded from every tax base.

​
On your website

Only cards that are both Active and Available online appear on your /gift-cards page, in the catalog’s sort order. A visitor picks a tile, chooses an amount and recipient in the purchase dialog, then adds it to the cart and checks out. Buyers can reopen an in-cart gift card with Edit to change the amount, recipient, or message before paying.

​
At the point of sale

The register shows a Gift Cards tab beside your product categories. With no cards set up yet, it points staff at Store > Gift Cards. A walk-in sale has no signed-in buyer, so For myself is hidden and a recipient email is always required — the card is delivered as an emailed claim link. Otherwise the dialog is the same as the storefront’s, including the live preview.

​
What the recipient gets

The email is branded with your logo and primary color and carries a View your gift card button. The subject is “[sender] sent you a gift card to [your club]” for a gift, “You’ve received a gift card to [your club]” when the buyer left the sender name blank, or “Your [your club] gift card” for a self-purchase. Delivery is durable. Each attempt issues a fresh claim link, so a retry can send a duplicate email — the newest link is always the working one. A background reconciler retries any send that failed, so nothing silently goes undelivered. On Financials > Gift Cards, each card’s Source badge reads Store for a website sale and POS for a register one. The Source filter above the list labels those same two choices Online store and Point of sale.
