Gift cards

A thoughtful gift.
A clear balance.

Sell a salon experience as a gift and keep track of the remaining balance. Sovado connects issuing and redeeming gift cards to your checkout, so you don't have to rely on paper slips.

  • A personal giftWith an amount and personal message.
  • Use it across visitsThe remaining balance is kept.
  • Every movement recordedFrom issue to the final redemption.

Issue

From a gift idea to a unique code.

Create a gift card through the checkout or record a manual issue after receiving payment. Add a recipient, personal message and expiry date. The card receives a unique code and an opening balance.

  1. 01

    Sell the gift

    A client buys a €75 card for Noor. Complete the payment and create the card.

  2. 02

    Use the code

    Noor spends €49 on a haircut. Check the code at checkout.

  3. 03

    Keep the remainder

    The balance is €26. Noor can use it on a later visit while the card remains valid.

Fits your everyday work

A gift that is taken care of.

Redeem

It doesn't have to be spent in one visit.

Enter the code at checkout and check the available balance. Use the card for all or part of the sale. Any remainder stays on the same card.

  • Check the code and active status.
  • Spend part of the balance and keep the rest.
  • Pay any remaining amount another way.

Overview

Every redemption has a history.

Issues and redemptions are saved as transactions. Look up the balance and status instead of crossing out amounts on paper. Balance checks prevent further spending on an expired or fully redeemed card.

  • View the opening and remaining balance.
  • Find issues and redemptions.
  • Distinguish active, used and expired cards.
