Gift Certificates

  • Last Updated: November 4, 2024

Gift certificates are a free, built-in payment option that provide customer with store credit, either through refunds or purchases.

While gift cards are more widely applicable, certificates:

  1. Are all on paper.
  2. Don’t require signing up for anything.
  3. Are a flexible way to issue in-store credit.
  • Note: You cannot add value to an existing gift certificate.
