Built from the ground up for high-volume stores, it bypasses the traditional and slow WordPress post-meta architecture in favor of a fast custom database engine. Whether you’re selling digital vouchers for holidays, managing offline physical cards, or handling complex customer refunds via store credit, WPC eGift Cards delivers a seamless, secure, and beautiful experience for both you and your customers. **Key Features:** * Sell digital gift cards directly as WooCommerce products * Custom Database Tables for high performance (no CPT bloat) * Allow customers to upload custom images for personalizing their gift cards * Live frontend preview of the gift card design that updates in real-time * Allow customers to set custom gift card amounts * Automated email delivery with optional future scheduling * Partial and full balance redemption at Cart and Checkout * Smart refund handling (automatically restore balance on order cancellation) * Manual balance adjustments (Credit/Debit) by store admins * Detailed transaction history for every card * Frontend shortcode `[wpcgc_check_balance]` to check remaining balance * Customer self-service panel in WooCommerce My Account * Customizable frontend text via built-in Localization panel * High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) compatible * Translation ready ### 💳 Gift Card Creation & Management WPC eGift Cards makes it easy to sell digital vouchers or import physical cards. * **Dedicated Product Type:** Simply create a new product and select “WPC Gift Card”. * **Fixed or Custom Amounts:** Offer predefined price tiers (e.g., $10, $50, $100) or let your customers type in their own custom amount. * **Bulk Generator:** Need to print physical cards for your retail store? Use the admin Bulk Generator to instantly create hundreds of unique card codes with predefined balances. * **Expiration Dates:** Set optional expiration dates to create urgency. ### 🖼️ Personalization & Live Preview Give your customers the power to create a personal gift experience right from the product page. * **Custom Image Uploads:** Customers can upload their own photos or graphics to be featured on the gift card, making it a unique and thoughtful present. * **Real-time Live Preview:** As customers type their personal message, enter the recipient’s name, or upload an image, the gift card preview updates instantly on the screen. * **Preview in Product Gallery:** Optionally display the interactive gift card preview directly inside the WooCommerce product image gallery for a seamless, modern shopping experience. ### ✉️ Automated Delivery & Reminders Ensure your gift cards arrive at the right moment and are never forgotten. * **Scheduled Delivery:** Customers can choose exactly which day the gift card email should arrive in the recipient’s inbox (great for birthdays and anniversaries). * **Smart Reminders:** Automatically send a reminder email to the recipient before their card expires, driving them back to your store to spend their balance. * **Resend Utility:** If a customer loses their email, admins can instantly resend the card to any email address with a single click. ### 🛡️ Custom Database & High Performance Most gift card plugins store codes and balances as Custom Post Types (CPT), which can slow down your store as data grows. We built this plugin differently: * **Dedicated Tables:** Gift cards and transactions are stored in their own normalized tables (`wp_wpc_gc_cards`, `wp_wpc_gc_transactions`). * **Zero Bloat:** No massive `wp_postmeta` lookups during checkout, ensuring fast redemption and querying. * **Developer Ready:** The robust architecture is fully decoupled and ready for REST API or Webhook integrations via extensive built-in action hooks. ### 💰 Balance Adjustments & Refunds Handling money requires precision. WPC eGift Cards tracks balances reliably. * **Order Refunds:** If a customer pays with a gift card and later requests a refund, the plugin intelligently restores the exact used amount back to the card’s balance. * **Manual Adjustments:** Store admins can manually Credit (Add) or Debit (Subtract) balances to resolve customer support issues, leaving an auditable note for the transaction. * **Transaction Ledger:** Both admins and customers can view a detailed, immutable history of every transaction associated with a specific card. ### ✨ Seamless Cart & Checkout Integration A smooth checkout experience helps conversions. * **Native UI:** The gift card redemption form integrates seamlessly into your WooCommerce Cart and Checkout pages. * **Partial Usage:** Customers can use a portion of their gift card and save the rest for later, or combine multiple gift cards to pay for a single order. * **Balance Display:** Applied cards clearly show their remaining balance right in the order summary. ### 🎨 Customization & Localization Make the plugin feel like a native part of your brand. * **Built-in Localization:** Don’t want to mess with `.po` files? A dedicated Localization settings panel lets you instantly rewrite frontend strings (e.g., changing “Check Balance” to “View Store Credit”). * **Live Preview:** Customers can see exactly what the digital gift card will look like—complete with their custom message and recipient name—before they add it to the cart. ## Screenshots [[ ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress. 3. Go to `WPC eGift Cards > Settings` to configure your general preferences. 4. Create a new WooCommerce product and select the “WPC Gift Card” product type to start selling! ## FAQ ### Can customers use multiple gift cards on a single order? Yes! Customers can apply as many gift cards as they want to their cart until the order total is fully covered. ### What happens if an order is refunded? The plugin will automatically detect if a gift card was used as payment. Upon refund, the exact amount debited from the gift card will be credited back to the card’s balance automatically. ### Does this plugin slow down my site? No. Unlike many other plugins that rely on WooCommerce’s Custom Post Types (which bloat the `postmeta` table), WPC eGift Cards uses completely independent, optimized database tables for high performance. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “WPC eGift Cards for WooCommerce” is open source software.
