What Is a Gift Card?

A Gift Card is a card or token that is used as cash at certain stores and franchises. These forms of payment are assigned a cash value when purchased, but typically cannot be cashed out.

Alternate Name:

  • Gift Certificate.

Gift Cards serve many purposes. One reason vendors and marketing experts may give them out is to promote their business or products. Implied in the name, they are commonly given as gifts. Like debit cards, Visa Gift Cards have grown in popularity due to the freedom users have to make purchases anywhere that accepts Visa rather than having no choice but to patronize one business or location. Some of the best Gift Cards are the ones that do not expire!

A relatively new form of Gift Cards are electronic Gift Cards. You may hear them referred to as digital cards or e-gift cards. These forms of Gift Cards are used the same way as physical cards except that they are sent electronically via email or text. You can use them online or in stores.

How to Make a Gift Card?

Whether you intend to include it in a thank you letter, use it in a raffle, or promote your entrepreneurial endeavors, making your own Gift Certificate or custom Gift Card can provide you with the flexibility to tailor them to your needs.

  1. Identify your audience and how you intend the Gift Certificate to be used. Knowing these two things will allow you to choose a Gift Card design that will best serve the card’s purpose.

    • For example, if your audience is younger you may want to use a design and imagery that speaks to popular culture. Conversely, if you intend to distribute Gift Certificates to an older audience, consider keeping the design simple and not too busy;
    • If the card’s purpose is to boost sales, be sure to include your best deal(s) as a part of the Gift Certificate’s design.
    • Gift Card templates are easy ways to start your design process!
  2. Choose the material and finish for your Gift Card.

    • You can choose to use paper, plastic, or go digital;
    • If using paper, you can customize the paper thickness, paper texture, as well as its finish;
    • There are a plethora of online shops that specialize in helping you create and print a custom Gift Card. If you do not intend to create a Gift Card by hand, shop around and see which vendors are best for your budget.
  3. Include pertinent information on the card.

    • This information can include: an expiration date, the card’s value, and any terms or conditions associated with the card.
  4. Whether you are sending a digital or a physical card, it is a good practice to include a personal message.

  5. Choose your delivery method

    • Gift cards can be delivered electronically, using snail mail, or hand-delivered;
    • It is not uncommon for businesses to offer the option to purchase a digital Gift Card straight from their website or include it in their newsletter.
