Voucherify Gift Card
The Gift Card connector enables seamless gift-card payments in your commercetools checkout flow via Voucherify’s APIs. The connector adds support for gift card issuance, redemption, balance management, and customer checkout integration.
Key Features
Accept gift cards as a payment method at checkout within commercetools.
Use Voucherify’s gift card engine: generate, distribute, track, and redeem gift cards with controls over expiry, value, balance, and partial redemptions.
Use Connect Payment SDK for context/session handling.
Open-source, MIT-licensed – extend, adapt, and customize to fit your business flows.
Support hybrid payment scenarios: if the gift-card balance is insufficient, you can configure a secondary payment to cover the difference using commercetools Payment/Checkout capabilities.
Note, this is a recommended usage when combining methods.
Value Proposition
For commerce teams: Quickly launch digital or physical gift-card programs integrated with your headless checkout, without building all the plumbing yourself.
For marketing/loyalty teams: Leverage Voucherify’s advanced controls, such as metadata, rules, segmentation, expiry, and multi-brand/regional setups for strategic gift-card campaigns.
For developers: Comes with a ready architecture, local development setup via Docker Compose, and is compatible with commercetools Connect runtime.
Typical Use Cases
Issuing gift cards via email or a digital code that customers can redeem in your commercetools-powered storefront.
Allowing customers to partially pay with a gift card and complete the payment with another method.
Using gift cards as part of loyalty or referral programs, e.g., crediting a gift-card balance to a customer.
Multi-brand or multi-region scenarios: separate gift-card projects per region/brand, while keeping a single underlying commercetools setup.
