Where gift cards make you money

What we see across Gift Card Hero stores, September 2025 – August 2026.

Gift card shoppers spend more

Most people who pay with a gift card buy more than the card covers and pay the difference themselves. Every card you sell is a bigger order waiting to happen.

63%of gift card orders exceed the card

Last-minute buyers still convert

43% of December eGifts are bought in the last week before Christmas, and Dec 24 brings about 10× the eGift sales of an average day. Instant and scheduled delivery turns that rush into orders.

Holiday cards bring customers back

November and December bring over a third of eGift sales. Each card is a return visit in the new year, and balance reminders make sure it happens.

A gift card page that sells, even on Christmas Eve

Buyers pick a design, an amount and the exact date and time the eGift arrives, with a personal message or video. Late shoppers still give a gift on time, and recipients come back to spend it, usually more than the card is worth.

  • Your own designs for every occasion, in drag-and-drop order
  • Delivery on a chosen date and time
  • Personal message or video greeting
  • Physical cards sold from the same product
  • Gift card pages in 39 storefront languages

Retention

Every refund and balance brings the customer back

Refund in-store returns to a gift card instead of cash, top up cards online or at POS, and adjust balances with a note. Each card's history shows where it was bought, topped up and spent, so the money you keep is money you can see.

  • Refund to a gift card from the POS tile
  • Balance top-ups with an email to the customer
  • Balance adjustments with a note
  • Full transaction history per card, online and in store
  • Unused balance reminders by email or Klaviyo

Build reward rules on a visual canvas: spend $150, get a $20 gift card; 5% back on every order; a bigger multiplier for Gold customers.

  • Workflows: trigger, conditions, actions, with ready-made templates
  • Cashback, fixed rewards and spend thresholds
  • Tiers with reward multipliers
  • Nudges and banners with a goal meter, countdown or live receipt
  • Budget caps, auto-pause and refund clawback
