Using Gift Cards at Checkout
Customers can apply a gift card balance toward any order at checkout. Gift cards can cover the full amount or be combined with other payment methods for partial payments.
Applying a Gift Card
- Open the payment screen for the order.
- Click the Gift Card button.
- Enter or swipe the gift card number.
- The available balance is applied to the order:
- If the balance covers the full order, the remaining balance is zero.
- If the balance is less than the order total, the remaining balance can be paid with another method.
- Complete the transaction.
Gift Card Balance Button
When the gift card balance exactly matches the order total, the payment button label changes to Gift Card Balance for quick single-tap payment.
Partial Payments
If the gift card doesn't cover the full amount, the remaining balance stays open. Apply additional payment methods (cash, credit, etc.) to cover the rest.
Multiple Gift Cards
Multiple gift cards can be applied to a single order. After applying the first card, the Gift Card button appears again if the remaining balance is still greater than zero.
Checking Gift Card Balance
From the order screen, use the Gift/Store Credit Lookup function button (if configured in your function groups) to check a card's balance without applying it to an order.
