❓ Challenge

It’s not a secret that choosing a gift is a hard and rather time consuming process. Customers browse through numerous websites before making their purchase decision, especially on holidays’ eve, and it’s hard for them to choose the suitable product as a gift. Therefore, there is a high risk that visitors who are not certain about a particular gift may leave your store trying to find ‘something better’.

🔥 Solution

With the Magento 1 Gift Card extension customers will be able to solve the gifting problem once and for all by purchasing specially designed gift certificates and sending them to friends and relatives either via email or via post office. Once the gift certificate is bought, a unique gift code with a greeting message will be sent to the recipient. Magento gift card module works both for guest visitors and authorized users to cover target audience fully.

Increase your sales

E-gifting is rightly considered to be one of the most effective sales boosters. According to the Internetretailer.com about 80 percent of costumers say they buy at least one gift certificate during the holiday shopping season. Apart from that, more than 60 percent of gift voucher holders spend more than the amount of their gift card.

Gift card options for customers

The extension provides multiple possibilities to improve customer shopping experience. Due to the flexible frontend options, visitors can easily apply their cards and view all related info in a convenient way.

Customizable gift card

Flexible extension navigation allows customers to configure Magento 1 gift cards according to their needs. Before adding the certificate to cart visitors can:
- choose the certificate value or specify their own custom value;
- select the card type: virtual, printed or combined;
- choose the card image;
- write a gift message; specify sender and recipient data.
All specified gift card details will be automatically displayed on the shopping cart page.

Gift card balance

As soon as a Magento gift voucher recipient gets a gift code via email or post office and inserts it in a special Magento gift card field, the card balance will be available on a customer account page in the Gift Card tab. Thus, a customer can track all card-related info in one place and easily manage it according to the card peculiarities and available options.
Gift card holders will be able to:
- add an unlimited number of gift codes;
- remove already used certificates;
- see the current gift card balance;
- see the certificate expiration date.

Apply gift code on the shopping cart page

The extension is designed to make shoppers purchase more and avoid misunderstanding concerning the card usage. Thus, to make sure that the gift option works as supposed, customers can apply an active Magento gift card code right on the shopping cart page. All they need to do is just to insert the code in a special field and click on the 'Add gift card' link below. Once the code is applied, the new grand total price will be automatically recalculated and displayed even before they get to the checkout page.
On the shopping cart page gift card holders can:
- apply gift card code;
- check gift card status;
- see gift card balance and expiration date.

Flexible settings for admin users

To make gift cards beneficial and appealing for customers, the module includes various configuration options. Easily create as many gift cards as you need and adjust the setting in the admin panel according to your business goals.

To create a new code set specify:
- Code set title;
- Code set template;
- Gift code quantity;

Keep track of purchased codes

The Gift Card Magento module offers an effective codes management tool. All purchased gift codes are carefully placed to a special grid where you can delete unnecessary codes or change any code settings if needed. Here you can also view the history of a code usage that includes: store view where the code was bought, the date of code purchase as well as the information about orders made with a particular code.

Not a big fun of the logic which is used to sell the gift cards, but eventually it works. The purchase process simplification would really help. Nevertheless, it works fine for now. English speaking support is friendly.

Great module in case you use everything just out of the box, but if you need to make any changes on the product page where the customer purchase a gift card, you need to know html to display it in the way you like.

Our customers are happy

80%

Our clients were pushing us to implement something like gift cards for quite some time. They just demanded such cards. Now when the module is working, customers comment very positively on both giftcards and the variety of shopping opportunities that such cards allow. We didn't face any installation issues and the configuration was also pleasant. The number of options and settings is amazing. With this plugin you can create really unique cards and loyalty programs. The only weak spot is that the plugin is not documented too well; you’ll have to mess with the module for some time before you can understand how it all works.

Satisfactory tool

80%

Gift Card is a very reliable module and a great business solution. Often customers search for gift cards to present to their family or friends, and shop owners really should provide this option. This plugin from Amasty is one of a few that offers sending cards by post, it turned out to be a valuable feature. We didn’t run into any serious issues during the installation process, we managed to figure all the questions just by reading the docs carefully. I’m giving 4 stars now to save one for later. This module is new and I hope that updates would make it even better.

Very powerful module

100%

We’ve implemented this module just recently, and I can already see that it’s a valuable tool; it’s useful and has rich functionalirty. Numerous features of this product actually make it a “must have” for any store. We are selling cosmetics, and I admit we should have implemented gift cards long ago. We noticed that customers purchase cards almost as readily, as actual products. The plugin is very easy to install and to configure, the code is good. It didn’t cause any problems with our custom theme or other extensions. We almost got accustomed that implementing new tools is painful. This time was a pleasant surprise. Devs there really know what merchants need and how to do it!

Many troubles with installation

60%

Every time I install new extension on my magento store I get really nervous. The modules always seem to be useful when you read what developers say in the description but in real life plugins often conflict with each other, especially if they come from different developer. That is exactly what happened to me this time. I submitted a ticket to support. They asked me for credentials to my server and did something there on the backend. After 2 days of work the module finally works as expected, I’ll see if the outcome would be worth all this trouble. 3 stars ‘cause I don’t like third party teams messing on my website. And I just really want the tools to work at once, without extra trouble.

Brilliant solution

100%

The extension works just as it should. The possibility to make combined cards is a very nice feature. For us it actually means that customer can easily make purchases either in our webstore or in offline shops, which is good all-round. The process of creating customized cards (with unique images and messages) is plain simple, and the outcome is really impressive. Such gift cards can really add points to the individuality of your brand. While the plugin itself is incredibly good, the support is second to none. I needed some expert advice and a small customization. The techs had everything done within just several hours. They are professional, friendly and experienced. This module is absolutely worth every dollar!

Awesome extension with awesome support

80%

First of all thanks Amasty for your support, especially Ivan has given me dedicated support for some bug fixes related with my theme. The only lack of the extension is, not having VAT seperately. I will be solving this problem by hiring Amasty sources (because it's not described in the demo) but should be added for the next updates. Thanks again, it works very well.

Works as described

Good extension with nice functionality. We weren’t planning to implement this tool but when this vendor released the extensions we decided to tr y. The code is clean, no conflicts with extensions from other providers. Our suggestion is to add a feature so users can upload their own designs and maybe more predefined designs on more occasions as well. A bit pricey…

highly demamnded features

Gift cards have long been among top requests from my customers and I finally decided to add them. I'm fully happy with the features and see that a lof of people buy gift cards, especially during holidays. About the extension itself: the installation is ok and settings are intuitive. The only thing I would like to see in the next updates is the ability to upload custom pictures by clients. That would be awesome.
