Gift Cards are a great way to promote your business and get extra sales. The gift cards in WebReserv are electronic, so there is not need to print cards/paper. Customers can purchase directly from your site using the booking calendar, and purchases will be emailed to the customer who will be able to either email or print out the certificate to give to the recipient. Each gift card purchased comes with a unique code that is only good for one time use (no balance is held on gift cards).
