Boost Your Membership Site with Gift Cards

Flexible Gift Card Options

Gift cards can be created using several different template types, allowing site owners to choose the format that best fits their business.

Fixed Amount Gift Cards

Create gift cards for a specific dollar amount, such as $25, $50, or $100. These are ideal for traditional gift card purchases where the recipient can apply the value toward an eligible purchase.

Membership Gift Cards

Create gift cards that provide access to a specific member plan for a set number of days. This is a helpful option for gifting trial access, limited-time memberships, training programs, or other membership-based offers.

Cart Item Gift Cards

Create gift cards that can be redeemed for a specific shopping cart item. This is useful when a purchaser wants to gift a particular product, course, download, event, or other item from your shopping cart.

Custom Amount Gift Cards

Allow buyers to choose their own gift card amount within the minimum and maximum range you set. This gives customers more flexibility while still keeping the purchase amount within your preferred limits.

Sell Gift Cards Through the Shopping Cart

Gift cards can be sold through the shopping cart by linking a gift card template to a shopping cart product. Once the product is set up, customers can purchase the gift card just like any other cart item.

This makes it easy to offer gift cards as part of your existing sales process, whether you are selling general gift cards, membership access, specific products, or custom-value cards.

Issue Gift Cards as an Admin

Gift cards can also be assigned by an admin through the control panel. This is helpful for complimentary access, customer service credits, loyalty rewards, event prizes, promotional campaigns, or manually sending a gift card to a specific recipient.

Admin-issued gift cards give site owners another way to support members and customers without requiring a purchase through the shopping cart.

Accept Gift Cards at Checkout

Gift cards can be accepted on subscription forms and shopping cart checkout forms. Site owners can choose where gift cards are allowed, customize the gift card label, and decide whether a gift card should be optional or required.

This allows customers and gift recipients to redeem their gift cards during the purchase or signup process, creating a smoother experience from purchase to redemption.

Customize Gift Card Emails

Each gift card template can include its own email message. Site owners can customize the subject line and message sent to the recipient, including gift card details such as the gift card code, amount, expiration date, membership plan, cart item, or personal message from the purchaser.

This helps create a more polished and branded experience for both the purchaser and the recipient.

Manage and Track Gift Card Activity

The Gift Card system includes tools to help site owners manage templates, view issued gift cards, review remaining balances, track expiration dates, and see transaction history.

This makes it easier to understand how gift cards are being used, which cards have been redeemed, and what value remains available.

A Flexible Way to Increase Sales and Reward Members

Gift cards give site owners a practical way to create new sales opportunities, introduce new people to their site, reward existing members, and offer more flexible purchase options.

By supporting fixed amounts, membership access, specific cart items, custom amounts, admin-issued cards, checkout redemption, custom emails, and reporting, MemberGate's Gift Card system provides a complete way to offer and manage gift cards from one place.
