Creating Unlimited Unique Gift Card Codes

If you or the Vendor of this Gift Card doesn’t have a list of codes, the plugin will generate them for you. The number of codes, the plugin generates is based on the “Number of Gift Card Codes” settings. If you enter 100 there, then the plugin will generate 100 unique gift card codes. You only need to enter one code within the “Gift Card Codes” option and then choose the option “Unlimited” within the Usability settings.

The plugin will then generate an unique Gift Card code for each customer using the Name, Gift Card Code you entered and the Order ID.

Example: If I enter Hello in to the gift card codes field and would then purchase a Gift Card Code, the unique generated code would look like the following: Woo-GW81 where WooTest would be buyer’s name, 1221 would be the Order ID and would always be unique and 10 would be product id if product is simple and if product is variable product 10 would be variation id and finally 102 would be the order’s item id.If you enter 5 different gift card codes within the gift card codes option and choose the option “Only one time” within the Usability settings then the plugin will automatically set the “Stock Qty” option in the Inventory tab based on the number of codes you entered and set the Manage stock option.

How Gift Card Purchases Work

The Gift Card Template file is generated at the time when the customer is granted access to downloadable files for the order, so it’s not generated immediately at purchase. Typically this would happen when the order status is set to “complete”, though if the “Grant access to downloadable products after payment” option is enabled on WooCommerce > Settings > Products > Downloadable Products, the gift card will be available for orders in the “processing” state.

Once a gift card is generated, it will display gift card view link to from the standard customer order receipt emails, and available for view from the customer’s My Account view order page, as well as the order Thank You page.If the optional “Recipient Email” field is enabled, a separate email will also be sent to the email address supplied by the customer, and is perfect for gift card codes that can be sent as gifts. This will be sent at the same time as the customer email, so gift card are only sent to recipients for processing or completed orders (depending on your settings).

When order status changes to Refunded or failed; the created gift card codes are marked as void so that they cannot be used in next orders. Also, the customer who has access to those gift card codes cannot redeem it anymore.

When order status changes to Cancelled or when customer resumes the order from front end; the created gift card codes will get restored and the customer will not receive any gift card code for that order. The restored gift card codes can be used in next orders.When the order status is cancelled from Processing, in that case the gift card is not void and user still able to use the gift card. Admin have to manually redeem the gift card to make it non usable.
