You can create digital gift card links that can be shared with customers through social media, printed QR codes, email, text and any other distribution method.

The link will allow customers to purchase a single gift card item on your LinkPOS menu.

First create gift card items on your menu.

Then follow these steps to create and manage Digital Gift Card links:

  1. Navigate to https://linkpos.com/gc
    1. Log in using the company, store and password that you would use to set up an iPad register in your store

  2. Now you will see the Digital Gift Card dashboard. In this example there aren't any gift card links so select the menu from the list that contains the gift card that you want to sell

  3. With the main menu selected it will show the gift cards in that menu. If there are no gift cards in the menu the list will be blank. In that case log in to linkpos.net and add a gift card to your menu before proceeding. Select the gift card you want to create a link to.
