GiftRocket – Ultimate Gift Cards for SureCart

Description

GiftRocket – Ultimate Gift Cards for SureCart seamlessly integrates with SureCart to provide a true stored-value gift card shopping and redemption experience.

Unlike simple promotional coupon plugins, GiftRocket treats gift cards as stored-value financial tender (cash equivalents) with an independent ledger. Balances, transactions, and scheduled deliveries are tracked in dedicated database tables, keeping your SureCart > Coupons admin list 100% clean.

✨ Key Features

• Stored-Value Ledger Engine: Full balance tracking, partial deductions, and transaction logging in dedicated custom database tables (wp_giftrocketsure_cards, wp_giftrocketsure_ledger, wp_giftrocketsure_logs).
• Immutable Transaction Ledger: Complete append-only audit trail recording every balance issuance, checkout redemption, manual admin adjustment, and refund restoration.
• Store Admin Card Management: Manually create new gift cards, edit existing vouchers, adjust balances, and override card operational statuses (Active, Used, Expired, Disabled) directly from the admin dashboard with anti-spam email protection.
• Zero SureCart Coupon Clutter: Ephemeral Just-In-Time Bridge creates temporary checkout tokens that are incinerated immediately upon order confirmation or removal.
• Dedicated Checkout Gift Card Field: Distinct "🎁 Have a gift card?" accordion directly adjacent to SureCart’s promotional coupon form, eliminating customer confusion.
• Real-Time Available Balance Badge: Shows live remaining card balance upon application with one-click removal to restore original cart totals.
• Split Tender Support: Partial balances apply smoothly to orders; any remaining balance stays on the card, or higher totals can be split with credit card/PayPal.
• Native SureCart Product Integration & Wizard: Configure gift cards directly within SureCart > Products (admin.php?page=sc-products). Toggle product types, manage preset denomination pills, set flexible expiry periods, enable email scheduling, and configure disclaimer terms directly in the product editor.
• Automatic Single Product Page Routing: No shortcodes required. Simply mark a SureCart product as a “GiftRocket Gift Card” and viewing that product automatically loads the single-page customizer.
• Live Interactive Card Preview: Visual preview updates live as the customer selects designs, amounts, and enters personalized recipient messages.
• Preset & Custom Amounts: Configure instant preset buttons (e.g. $100, $200, $300, $500) and allow optional custom amount inputs with min/max validation.
• Occasion Design Gallery: Included designs for Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Birthdays, and General Occasions. Customers can also upload custom card artwork.
• Instant & Scheduled Delivery: Immediate dispatch upon order completion or queue-based scheduled delivery (date and time) powered by WP-Cron.
• Hardened Security & Concurrency: Row-level database transaction locking (SELECT ... FOR UPDATE) prevents double-spending race conditions.
• Automatic Refund & Cancellation Restoration: Automatically restores spent balances when orders paid with a gift card are refunded or cancelled by store admin, and voids gift cards when purchasing charges are revoked.
• Isolated Settings Subtabs & Hash Routing: Dedicated subtabs for General, Form, and Email settings with scoped persistence preventing checkbox resets and URL hash routing for direct deep-linking.
• Configurable Customizer Headings: Customize main customizer titles, input labels, character limits, and localized validation feedback directly from the admin panel.
• Public Balance Checker Shortcode: Embed [giftrocket_balance_check] anywhere on your site (e.g. /check-balance) to let customers check their card balance, initial value, status, and expiry with built-in rate-limited anti-abuse protection.
