General Usage
Many businesses want to sell and redeem gift cards. Gift cards bring new customers and repeat business. Many times gift cards are not redeemed, which can bring added profit to your business. If your current business software does not support gift cards, you can use this software to sell, redeem and track gift cards. When a customer uses a gift card to pay for an item all you have to do is scan the card and enter the amount used on the card. The data files will track what is remaining and keep historical data for history reports.

Gift Cards
This software supports the purchase and redemption of gift cards. The gift cards are printed and encoded by our company in a format that is compatible to the software. If you want your logo on your gift cards you will need to send us a gif file of your logo. There is a small setup charge for card printing (i.e. logos) and then a per card price for producing the cards. Call Business Software Solutions for current pricing.

The card must be redeemed at the location where it was created unless you purchase the necessary software for multiple store processing. To sell a gift card to a customer you select the “Purchase Gift Card” button on the main gift card menu. A purchase gift card screen will pop up. While on that screen you will scan the gift card and then press the gift card number button. You will then enter the amount for the gift card and press the gift card amount button. Then press save and the gift card data will be saved. The gift card number in the data file will be encrypted so that unauthorized users can not get this information.

How Do I Redeem Gift Cards

On the screen that pops up you will scan the gift card and press the Gift Card Number” button. Then you will enter the amount to redeem and press the “OK” button.

Master Password
The Master Password is needed when you enter restricted modules. At setup the master password is blank. As long as you leave the Master Password blank the Master Password is disabled. It is recommended that for security you enter a master password.
Employee Passwords
Employees define their own passwords by making this selection. When an employee enters a protected module he or she must enter their password before entrance is allowed into the protected module.

Define Employees
When defining employees you will need to enter the employee’s identification number, and the employees name. The other fields of information can be used to track additional information about your employees but are not necessary.
