Redeem a Gift Card

Sell a Gift Card | General Payment Procedure

This topic applies to users of the QuickBooks Desktop POS Gift Card Service. What if I use another Service?

To redeem a gift card on a purchase:

1. After listing the items being sold, select the Gift payment type and then select Gift Card. The Gift Card dialog opens.

2. Be sure Redeem Card is selected and enter the amount in the Amount field.

3. Press <Enter>.

4. Swipe the gift card.
   Or
   Enter the gift card number manually and select Authorize.

- Point of Sale connects to the Gift Card Service and checks the balance of the card and a confirmation message displayed:

- If the card balance is equal to or more than the amount due, the payment amount is deducted from the card balance and payment is complete.

- If the card balance is less than the amount due, the card balance is adjusted to zero and the authorized amount is auto-populated to the Gift Card Redeem field. You will need to take additional payment by another gift card or any other method for the remaining amount due.

5. Save/print the receipt.

Notes:

- Up to three gift cards can be sold/redeemed on a single receipt.
