Sending Gift Cards

Flexible options for gift cards delivery

Whenever a gift card is created for a customer, our app can deliver it using one of four methods:

๐Ÿ›๏ธ Shopify Email

The standard Shopify gift card email is sent. This is the same email customers receive when purchasing a gift card through your store. You can edit the content in Shopify Admin โ†’ Settings โ†’ Notifications โ†’ Customer Notifications โ†’ Gift card receipt / New gift card. โœ… Best for stores that want a simple, no-setup delivery option.


๐Ÿ“ง App Email

Gift cards are sent using the appโ€™s built-in email templates. All templates are customizable via the app settings (Email โ†’ Templates). You can create your own templates using our powerful content editor with dynamic variables. ๐Ÿ“Œ Learn more about the templating engine and variables. โœ… Ideal for merchants who want custom-designed gift card emails with flexible formatting. โš ๏ธ Requires more setup than Shopify Email.


๐Ÿ“ฌ Klaviyo

When this option is selected, our app sends a metric event to Klaviyo. You can then configure a flow in Klaviyo to send a custom email in response. To use this option, you must connect your Klaviyo account by providing your Public API key in the app settings. ๐Ÿ“Œ Learn more about Klaviyo integration. โœ… Great for advanced email marketers using Klaviyo workflows. โš ๏ธ Requires setup both in the app and in Klaviyo.


๐Ÿ”„ Shopify Flow

The app sends a trigger event to Shopify Flow. You can use this to build custom workflowsโ€”like sending emails or performing actions across apps or services. ๐Ÿ“Œ Learn more about our Shopify Flow integration. โœ… Best for stores that want full control over automation, logic, and third-party integrations. โš ๏ธ Requires setting up flows in Shopify Flow.
