Gift cards let your customers prepay for products and services. They drive repeat visits, attract new shoppers, and make great gifts. Your POS system tracks balances and redemptions automatically.

What Is a Gift Card?

A gift card is a prepaid card or digital code that works like cash in your store. Customers buy them as gifts, rewards, or store credit. Fuze Store tracks each card's balance and handles redemptions at checkout.

Why Offer Gift Cards?

  • Attract new customers who receive gift cards from friends or family.
  • Boost sales since customers often spend more than the card's value.
  • Encourage loyalty by giving customers a reason to return.
  • Simplify gifting for your customers.

How Gift Cards Work in Your POS

  • Quick setup -- create and sell gift cards in a few clicks.
  • Flexible formats -- offer physical cards, digital codes, or both.
  • Automatic tracking -- the system manages balances and redemptions.
  • Clear receipts -- every receipt shows gift card usage and remaining balance.
