How do I create a gift certificate in BigCommerce?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 1:46 am

Creating a gift certificate in BigCommerce is a simple process that can be completed in just a few steps. First, select the gift certificate type that you would like to create. This can be a traditional gift certificate that can be redeemed at a specific store, or an online gift certificate that can be used to purchase products online. Next, enter the details of the gift certificate, including the recipient’s name, email address, and the amount of the gift certificate.

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about creating a gift certificate in BigCommerce, be warned that this process is not as straightforward as it may seem. While BigCommerce does offer the ability to create gift certificates, there are several important steps that you need to take in order to ensure that your certificate is valid and can be used by the recipient.

First, you will need to create a special code for your gift certificate. This code will be used to identify the certificate and will be required when redeeming the certificate. Next, you will need to specify the value of the certificate and the currency in which it will be denominated. Finally, you will need to choose an expiration date for the certificate.

Once you have completed these steps, you will then need to provide the recipient with the gift certificate code. The recipient can then use this code to redeem the certificate online.

However, it is important to note that BigCommerce does not currently offer the ability to print out gift certificates. Therefore, if you wish to provide a physical gift certificate, you will need to use a third-party service such as Gift Card Granny.

Finally, review the gift certificate and make any necessary changes before submitting it for processing. Once the gift certificate has been created, you can print it out or email it to the recipient.
