LOYALTY PROGRAMS: USING GIFT CARDS

Using Gift Cards

Please note that because screens are customizable, your set-up and/or wording may differ.

Load/Reload Gift Cards

Occasionally, a customer will request to have a Gift Card “reloaded”. This means they would like to add money to the card’s balance. The process is the same for both a NEW card and reloading an EXISTING card.

To Load/Reload a Gift Card from the Till:

· Type the $$$ amount to LOAD/RELOAD onto a Gift Card

· Press "GIFT CARD LOAD" (button location and description may differ)

· When prompted, swipe card or enter the card number

· The Gift Card will appear in the product/sales list

· Complete transaction as usual

Gift Card Balance

Occasionally, a customer will request to have a Gift Card balance checked. To check a Gift Card balance from the till:

· Press “GIFT CARD BALANCE”

· When prompted, swipe card or enter the card number

· The card balance will be displayed

Paying with a Gift Card

When ready for payment:

· Select the Gift Card payment option

· Acknowledge the ID reminder (if applicable)

· When prompted, swipe card or enter the card number

If there are not enough funds on the gift card to pay the full bill, the system will ask if you want to pay by ‘gift card available amount’. If you agree, the system will then suggest paying the rest of the bill by a different payment method.
