Bonus Gift Cards

Use this guide to set up gift card promotions, such as 'Buy a $25 gift card, and receive a $5 bonus gift card.' Bonus gift cards are emailed to the purchaser on the day of purchase. Bonus gift cards are cumulative per order. Guests will receive ALL eligible bonus gift cards for each level met. For example, if the lowest level requires a $20 purchase to get $5, and the highest level requires a $100 purchase to get $20, a guest purchasing $120 will receive $25 in bonus gift cards.

✴ Bonus gift cards are calculated on the original price of gift cards purchased, before any discounts are applied.

• The gift card recipient will receive an email with the gift card purchased for them.

Tickets and Reporting

• Bonus gift cards are put on the same ticket in SalonBiz as the purchased gift card, but with a $0.00 sell price. This is to ensure online gift card purchase tickets look the same as in store tickets; if you are doing the same promotion in stores. This will also ensure all reporting looks the same for in salon and online gift card sales.
• Bonus gift cards are placed under the purchaser’s file in SalonBiz. If purchasing without logging in online, the gift card will not be placed under a guest file, but can be located in SalonBiz using the serial number.
