How to Create Custom Gift Cards

This guide will walk you through setting up and customising gift cards for your business through the partner portal.



Getting Started


  • Log into Partner
  • Navigate to Settings and under General Setup, click on Gift Cards



Basic Gift Card Configuration


  • Toggle gift cards ON to enable the feature
  • Configure gift card amounts (minimum and maximum, both are optional)
  • Set gift card expiration (how long they remain valid), available options range from 3 months to 5 years


Important: Check your local legal requirements - some countries have minimum duration requirements for gift cards




Customise your gift card


You can work from our preset templates available in 5 languages



Follow these steps to design your own gift card:


Creating a Custom Template


  • Enable custom design by toggling ON Custom Design. An edit window will appear
  • Choose your language template. You'll see options for English and your preset localised language


You can create different templates for each language and you can work from our preset templates available in 5 languages


  • Select your template and confirm template overwrite
  • Add and modify visual elements such as images, background images or background colours
  • Modify the tone of voice to match your brand if desired
  • Add your booking link to the button OR repeat the gift card code



We recommend you to keep the essential template text that defines whether the gift card is for an experience or specific amount
