Re: Gift card / coupon code

Hi,

My client wants to sell a 'gift card' in their shop for their products. So one person should be able to buy a gift card, that someone else can use to buy a product of his or her choice in the shop. So it should be a coupon code that can only be used one time. But is it possible to set up a coupon code as product in the shop?

Thanks!

Hi,

There is no direct way to do that.
However, you can do that by using our integration with AcyMailing:
Create a product for your coupons.
Then, in AcyMailing, create a newsletter with a hikashop coupon tag.
Finally, create an auto filter (AcyMailing Enterprise) with a condition on your product and an action to send the newsletter and set it to be triggered when an order is confirmed.

That way, AcyMailing will generate a coupon code and send it in an email to the user once the user's order of the product in confirmed.
The limit is that you can only have one coupon per order. so you should limit the maximum number of products per order to one for that coupon product.

Is there any update on this?
Also can you explain how to create a "product for your coupons"
Thank you

Hello,

Can you elaborate more your point in order to allow us to be more specific in our answer.
Define your needs through a concrete case, and explain especially what do you mean by "product for coupons".

Maybe you can have some information, and even partial answers maybe here with HikaSerial .
Note that HikaSerial can work with Acymailing in order to send gift certificats.

Otherwise we will be waiting for your additional information.
