Understand gift-card delivery and redemption

PrepMyGifts collects the gift-card amount, recipient, note and delivery date. Shopify creates the redeemable code and handles its balance and recipient email.

1 min readReviewed

How to use it

  1. Configure the native Shopify gift-card product and dedicated page.
  2. Check the amount, recipient, note and delivery date fields from the shopper view.
  3. Complete a test purchase and check Shopify’s issuance and recipient email.
  4. Handle code, balance, redemption or native-email issues through the store’s Shopify gift-card tools.

What to know

The native Shopify gift-card email is separate from a PrepMyGifts link that opens a personal message.

Physical greeting cards are separate products and have no redeemable balance.

What happens next

The recipient uses the code with your store; Shopify maintains its value and remaining balance.
