Discounted gifts

Enable the discount feature on a voucher to reduce its price and add a saving sticker to the listing page. This will encourage your buyers to purchase this specific gift!  

 

Examples:

  • 20% off “Dinner for 2” voucher
  • £50 off Black Friday selection of gifts

For site-wide voucher discounts, please use the promo code feature.

Define your discounted gift offer

Elements to consider when planning your offers:

  • Price: Define the discounted price
  • Validity: When can this discounted gift be redeemed? Same as usual or only over a specific period? 
  • T&Cs: Are these different than usual? Are there any black out dates or restrictions on when it can be redeemed?
  • Availability: Do you want to limit the number of vouchers you want to sell? For example cap it at 200 vouchers.
  • Timing: When will you run your offer from and to?

Discount gifts

You can apply a discount to your gifts in the Catalogue Manager section of the Gift App.

Make your special gifts stand out

Adding a limited availability macaron to the gift voucher card creates urgency and makes it stand out.

To do this, switch on the limit availability option and limited number sold. Enter the maximum number of gifts you want to sell. You can enter a very high number. It will make the “limited availability” macaron appear, without actually limiting the number sold!

Limited Availability

Edit the terms & conditions

If your gift voucher has specific restrictions and blackout dates, add these to the gift description. The usual T&Cs will remain.

If you need all the new gifts for a specific campaign to have different T&Cs than usual, you can override your T&Cs and add new one at the catalogue level. Another good reason to create a catalogue!

Filter

Filters allow you to regroup a selection of vouchers and create ‘filtered views’ on your gift shop that you can share as a landing page with your buyers.

Black Friday tip: We highly recommend adding all special offer vouchers into a ‘Black Friday/Cyber Monday‘ filter.
If you have a ‘category’ or ‘filter’ site, have the ‘Black Friday/Cyber Monday‘ filter at the top of your filter list (if you have a ‘tag’ site, this will appear alphabetically).

Help: How to create a filter?

If you have a category site, also watch this video.

If you have more than one type of filter (gift type, occasion, location…), watch this video to learn how to map a voucher to a site that has more than one filter here.

If unsure, just get in touch.

Reorder gifts

On your gift shop home page, your gifts are sorted by price by default. You can change this order by bringing some vouchers to the top of the home page. We always recommend adding your offer vouchers to the top of your gift voucher listing.

Help: How to reorder gifts?

Tip: To promote your gifts, the vouchers must be ‘active’. If you are scheduling your gifts to activate on a certain date (so are currently deactivated), you must make the vouchers ‘active’ but ‘private’ (not visible to the general public) to promote them.
Once this has been actioned, you can then deactivate the vouchers and make them public. Make sure you double check that the scheduling has remained.

Carousels

Carousels are the sliding images or video clips at the top of your gift shop. 

Countdown feature: You can use the timer to promote your offer before it is available to encourage buyers to come back when the offer starts. Or, create some urgency by showing when the offer ends.

Hyperlink: Add a link to the special gift or filter to make it easy for buyers to find them.

Black Friday: Why don’t you schedule for your other carousels to deactivate when your Black Friday carousel activates? This way your Black Friday carousel will not be missed! Just remember to reschedule the carousels to activate after the campaign is finished.

Broadcast/Pop Up Message

This is a ‘pop up’ box that appears in the top right hand corner of the gift voucher page and is a great feature to use when advertising a promo code.

The pop-up box stays with your customers as they navigate the page, ensuring maximum visibility and engagement. 

Hyperlink: Add a link to the special gift or filter to make it easy for buyers to find them.

Listing Message

Above the filter, you have the option to add a heading and a listing message. 

Hyperlink: Add a link to the special gift or filter to make it easy for buyers to find them.

Reminder: If you want to keep your current ‘heading’, make sure you add this into the ‘Listing Heading’ or add a new one!

Frequently Asked Questions:

I do not have access to ‘Manage my site’…

Not all users have the ability to make dynamic changes to your gift shop, such editing carousels,  listing headings, broadcast/pop up messages and the functionality to ‘promote’ vouchers.

Can I get access? Yes, please get in touch! We normally advise that you limit access to a few of your marketing team to ensure consistency and centralised control over website management. However, if you believe that granting access to additional team members would be beneficial, we can certainly accommodate that request.

I am not sure how to set up some elements

We’ve created a series of videos showing you step by step how to edit your gift shop. Give it a go, we are sure you will love being able to make instant changes to your gift shop!

My offer is quite complex, can you help?

Of course, please complete this form to share the details of your campaign and we will help you set it up.
