Gift Card Groups
Via Administration > Gift Cards > Groups it is possible to create additional gift card groups. Groups can be used to create event specific gift cards, since they can be connected to individual event dates. Groups also belong to a specific organisation. Each group can gave a different expiry period. To create a new group, click Add group in the top right corner.
This new gift card can be sold online via a dedicated purchase link as well as in Box Office in the regular gift card sales view.
It is possible to add a Prefix to the gift card group in order to distinguish them from the other gift cards.
A specific payment type can be created to connect to a gift card group, this way the specific payment type is used in reports and gift card usage can be tracked better.
