Setting up
- Creating Gift Vouchers: set up Cash or Service/Product vouchers in Admin.
Selling vouchers
- Selling Gift Vouchers to Your Clients: sell one of your existing vouchers through POS, get the Voucher ID onto the physical voucher, and record it on the client's card.
- Create a Variable Gift Voucher in POS: create a one-off voucher for any price and value on the spot, without setting it up in Admin first.
- Selling Gift Vouchers Online: let clients buy vouchers themselves through your Online Booking site.
Redeeming and finding vouchers
- How to Redeem a Gift Voucher: take a voucher as payment for a sale, including cash type vouchers and partial redemptions.
- Find a Gift Voucher With or Without the Voucher ID: look up a voucher's remaining value and expiry, whether or not you have the Voucher ID.
- Changing a Gift Voucher's Expiry Date: extend or remove the expiry on a voucher, including expired ones.
- Using Gift Vouchers Issued Before Starting with Simple Salon: process a voucher that doesn't have a Simple Salon Voucher ID on it.
Tracking your vouchers
You can see a client's own vouchers on their Client Card, under the Gift Vouchers tab.
For business-wide tracking, go to Reporting > Report List:
- Open the Gift Voucher Report to see every voucher sold and redeemed over a date range. Click a Sold or Redeemed amount to see the client and transaction. Click the Voucher ID to open its Voucher Details, where you can edit the Remaining Value or Expiry.
- Open the Liability Report to see every voucher that still has value and hasn't expired. Click Show Details next to Gift Voucher Liability, then filter by voucher Type or Expires Within.
