A gift certificate or gift card is a voucher that a customer gives to someone as a present. You can configure it to be for a service or a dollar amount and choose from a variety of pre-made templates and designs when creating and selling them to your customers.

To sell and redeem preprinted gift cards using the Vagaro Pro app, follow the steps below.

  5. Fill in the gift card fields:
  • Service/Class: tie this gift certificate to a specific service or class. (Optional)
  • Amount: If you don't tie the certificate to a service/class, enter the value.
  • Expire on: Select an expiration date using the calendar pop-up, or leave set at Never.
    Check your state’s regulations for gift cards and certificates for information and expiration.
  • Sender's Name: Will be filled with the selected customer.
  • Recipient's Name: Start typing the name of a current customer, and it will fill in. Tap New to create a new profile if the person does not have a customer profile.
    Note: A customer must have a profile when a gift certificate is created and issued. The profile must include at least a first and last name.
    Note: If you do not know the recipient's contact information, create a customer profile of "Gift Certificate" to use. A customer only needs to provide the gift card or certificate number at checkout to redeem it.
  • Since this is a gift card, leave Message empty and uncheck both Print Gift Certificate and Send email to: [recipient's name]. There is also no need to select a template, so use whatever it is set for by default.
  1. You must select a design and image. Use anything, it will not be seen by the recipient.
  2. Tap Preview.
  3. On the preview screen, tap the back arrow to make changes, or Save to complete.
  4. Tap Done.
  5. Complete the transaction by entering the payment and tapping Checkout.

    Note: If a customer has multiple gift cards or certificates, you’ll see them all listed here. Use the switches to select which one to use.
  5. Tap Done.
  6. If there is any remaining payment due, enter it and then tap Checkout.
