Gift Cards by Codemenschen lets you sell gift cards for your services, products and experiences. It works on any WordPress site, with or without WooCommerce.
Your customers pick a design, enter the amount and a personal message, and see a live preview of the card. After payment they receive the gift card as a PDF by email, or you send a printed card by post. The voucher code can later be redeemed in your shop or at your counter.
A spa, a restaurant, a hotel, a fitness studio or an online shop can be set up in a few minutes. One click in Settings creates the pages and sample content, so the forms work right away.

Three ways to sell
Gift Cards [wpgv_giftcard] : customers choose one of six designed templates, in landscape or portrait format. They fill in the value, the names and a message, and watch the card update as they type.
Gift Items [wpgv_giftitems] : sell fixed packages such as “60 minute massage” or “Dinner for two”, grouped in categories. An item without a price becomes “Enter your amount”, so the customer chooses the value.
Gift Vouchers [wpgv_giftvoucher] : a simple voucher form. Set a price on a Gift Voucher to sell it at a fixed value, or leave it empty and let customers type any amount between your minimum and maximum.
