Voucherify Gift Card

Key Features

• Accept gift cards as a payment method at checkout within commercetools.
• Use Voucherify’s gift card engine: generate, distribute, track, and redeem gift cards with controls over expiry, value, balance, and partial redemptions.
• Use Connect Payment SDK for context/session handling.
• Open-source, MIT-licensed – extend, adapt, and customize to fit your business flows.
• Support hybrid payment scenarios: if the gift-card balance is insufficient, you can configure a secondary payment to cover the difference using commercetools Payment/Checkout capabilities.
  Note, this is a recommended usage when combining methods.

Value Proposition

• For commerce teams: Quickly launch digital or physical gift-card programs integrated with your headless checkout, without building all the plumbing yourself.
• For marketing/loyalty teams: Leverage Voucherify’s advanced controls, such as metadata, rules, segmentation, expiry, and multi-brand/regional setups for strategic gift-card campaigns.
• For developers: Comes with a ready architecture, local development setup via Docker Compose, and is compatible with commercetools Connect runtime.

Typical Use Cases

• Issuing gift cards via email or a digital code that customers can redeem in your commercetools-powered storefront.
• Allowing customers to partially pay with a gift card and complete the payment with another method.
• Using gift cards as part of loyalty or referral programs, e.g., crediting a gift-card balance to a customer.
• Multi-brand or multi-region scenarios: separate gift-card projects per region/brand, while keeping a single underlying commercetools setup.
