Point of Sale extensions

Issue, top up, extend or resend gift cards from the Shopify POS app.

Both extensions appear inside the Shopify POS app on your devices once Gift Card Factory is installed.

Issue gift card from this sale

A smart grid tile for staff. Tapping it opens a form that issues a gift card to the customer attached to the current cart, for an amount you type or the cart total, emails it to them and shows the code so it can be read out or printed. If no customer is attached, the card is created without a recipient and the code is shown to write down.

To add the tile:

1. Open Shopify POS on your device.

2. Tap Add tile on the smart grid.

3. Choose Apps → Gift Card Factory.

4. Pick Issue gift card from this sale and tap Add.

Update customer's gift card

An action in the POS customer details menu. Staff pick one of the customer's gift cards and Top up the balance, Extend expiry by a number of days or Resend by email to the customer or the recipient. Nothing needs to be added; it appears under More actions on a customer.

Top-ups count against your plan's usage like any other gift card operation.
