You can create an online gift certificate shop with Belbo, allowing your customers to purchase and pay for gift certificates online. This generates additional revenue and provides your customers with great added value.
Requirements for the Online Gift Certificate Shop
The following settings are required to use the Belbo gift certificate shop:
- The gift certificate module is active. On the Settings page you will see the "Gift Certificates & Discounts" function. If the function is not active, you can activate it under Settings > Add Function.
- The gift certificates to be sold have been created. When the "Gift Certificates" function is active, you can create your gift certificate templates under Settings > Prices & Competencies > Gift Certificates.
- Your online payment is set up and ready. An active Stripe or PayPal merchant account is set up under Settings > Online Payment.
Example of a gift certificate shop:

Setting up the Gift Certificate Shop
Activate the gift certificate shop under "Settings" by typing "gift certificate shop" in the search field at the top of the page or clicking the "Add Function" button.
Choose a gift certificate template or upload your own: Customize gift certificate design
When a gift certificate is sold, a gift certificate sales email is sent. This can be customized under Settings » Gift Certificate Shop » Confirmation Email and can be provided with text. Describe any special features of the gift certificate here (redemption period, etc.).
Your gift certificate shop is now accessible at:https://<YourCustomerAccount>.belbo.com/gift-certificates
