Selling Gift Coupons

1. Go into Seller Admin > Edit Cart Discounts & Gift Coupons;
2. Create a new Discount with a name you'll recognize (e.g., GiftCoupon25 for a $25 Gift Coupon);
3. Configure this with a Discount Amount and Minimum Order Amount (optional, but see NOTE below) both equal to the amount of your Gift Coupon, applied to the Item Total;
4. Paste a list of pre-generated codes (one code per line) as the Discount Code for that discount;
   • Tip: To generate random codes automatically, you could use a random string-generator site like Random.org/strings/;
   • If you'd generated one long string, just go through the string and hit Enter between every 4 or more characters like this:
     C13A
1009
8D9D
etc.
   • Our discount codes are not case-sensitive (a1b2c3 is treated the same as A1B2C3), so you should generate codes using numbers and/or either all-upper or all-lower case letters (not mixed-case letters).
5. Set the Maximum Use Count = 1 (so each code can only be used once);
6. Click Submit to save your new Cart Discount;
7. Go into Seller Admin > Add Product;
8. Name it something recognizable like Gift Coupon $25;
9. Set its price the same as the discount amount you'd configured;
10. Enable the Send Stored Codes option and click Submit;
11. On the next screen, you will see the PIN/Registration Codes box;
12. Paste in that box the same list of codes (one code per line) that you'd provided for the Discount earlier (you can use a find/replace function to replace;
13. Each buyer of this product will be issued one code from that list;
14. The buyer can then forward the code to their chosen gift recipient, or write the code in a greeting card, etc.;
15. The gift recipient would then visit your site, Add to Cart their chosen product(s), then enter their code in the cart screen to redeem their Gift Coupon discount.

NOTE: Gift Coupons cannot retain any unspent value for future use; e.g., if someone redeems a $25 Gift Coupon on a $20 order total, the remaining $5 would be forfeit (this is why we do not call them "Gift Certificates" :^).
