# Autogenerate

With autogenerate you can quickly generate any number of gift card codes. After creation you can have the codes emailed to you, made available as a downloadable file, or both.

### 💡 **Common Use Cases**

* **Partner Stores**: Collaborate with third-party sellers to distribute gift cards for resale or promotions, expanding your market reach.
* **Printed Gift Cards**: Create physical gift cards with unique codes for distribution in retail locations or events as tangible reminders for redemption.
* **Giveaways & Contests**: Use gift cards as prizes in online contests or social media campaigns to boost brand visibility and attract new customers.
* **Influencer Campaigns**: Send gift cards to influencers to try your products and promote your store, reaching broader audiences through their credibility.

These strategies make gift cards a key component of your promotional efforts, helping to engage customers and drive sales.

* **Value**: The initial balance of each gift card. Only your store's main currency is supported.\
  If the card is used in a different market, the value is automatically converted at checkout.
* **Count**: The number of gift cards you want to generate.
* **Code Length**: The number of characters in each code (between **8 and 16**).\
  Codes consist of random **letters and numbers**.
* **Gift card expiry**: Choose one of three options:
  * **Gift cards never expire** — codes have no expiration.
  * **Gift cards expire relative to creation date** — set a duration in days, weeks, months, or years from the moment each card is created.
  * **Gift cards expire on a specific date** — pick an exact calendar date.
* **Internal Note**: A private note attached to the gift card.\
  This is **only visible to store staff**, not customers. Maximum length is 255 characters.
* **Prefix**: Optional. Enable the **Prefix gift card** checkbox to add a fixed prefix to every generated code.\
  Up to **4 characters**, alphanumeric (`a-z`, `0-9`) only.

### **📤 Internal Delivery Options**

After the codes are generated you can choose how to receive them:

* **Allow gift cards data download**: Creates a download link in the **Bulk Operations** section. The link expires after **3 days** and is accessible to anyone with access to the app.
* **Send internal email with all generated gift cards codes**: Sends the full list of codes to an email address you specify. You can enter multiple addresses separated by a comma.

You can enable either option, both, or neither.

### **▶️ Running the Operation**

Two buttons are available at the bottom of the form:

* **Create now**: Runs the operation immediately.
* **Schedule**: Runs the operation at a future date and time you select.
