This demo simulates how to sell online gift certificates with ASecureCart.
Click "Order Gift Certificate" and then select the credit card payment method (sample only - no charge will occur) to
generate a Gift Certificate which could be redeemed later. If you select an "off-line" payment method, you will not receive the Gift Certificate code
since the cart won't know if the transaction was authorized.
This working example demonstrates how you can sell online Gift Certificates with ASecureCart. Upon successful credit card authorization, a
Gift Certificate code is created and added to the Gift Certificate screen within the
Profile Manager and the shopper's receipt displays the Gift Certificate code.
The shopper can then redeem the gift certificate by entering the code into your cart when ordering other products/services from your web site.
Gift Certificates can be associated with a particular e-mail address and/or be valid for within a time span that you determine.
See the tag reference for "GiftCertificate",
"GiftCertificateStart",
"GiftCertificateEnd",

Tip - if you want to offer pre-defined amounts for your Gift Certificates, use a dropdown list for the "Price" rather than a fixed amount. To use a selectable
"Price" amount, replace this:
<input type="hidden" name="Price" value="25.00">
With this:
<select name="Price">
<option value="5.00">$5.00</option>
<option value="10.00">$10.00</option>
<option value="25.00">$25.00</option>
<option value="50.00">$50.00</option>
<option value="75.00">$75.00</option>
</select>
