00:00:01.252 --> 00:00:05.737
Gift cards are a favourite present. In this episode we check the balance of a card,

2
00:00:05.737 --> 00:00:08.330
sell a new one, and then pay for a sale with it.

3
00:00:10.556 --> 00:00:15.204
A customer hands you a gift card and asks how much is left on it. Open the main

4
00:00:15.204 --> 00:00:19.206
menu, the three dots at the top right, and choose Gift card balance.

5
00:00:20.368 --> 00:00:23.732
Scan the card, or type the number, and tap the search button.

6
00:00:25.243 --> 00:00:29.946
The balance appears in large numbers. Underneath are the card's original value, and

7
00:00:29.946 --> 00:00:34.706
a list of everything that has happened on the card, with the amounts. Tap Close when

8
00:00:34.706 --> 00:00:35.442
you are done.

9
00:00:36.851 --> 00:00:41.528
To sell a new card, scan its barcode, or the store's Gift Card item. The register

10
00:00:41.528 --> 00:00:43.375
opens the Sell gift card window.

11
00:00:45.314 --> 00:00:49.982
Choose how much to load on the card. There are quick buttons for the usual amounts,

12
00:00:49.982 --> 00:00:53.243
or you can type any amount you like. We tap fifty dollars.

13
00:00:54.871 --> 00:00:59.549
Then give the card a number. Scan the number on the physical card, or type it. If

14
00:00:59.549 --> 00:01:04.342
you leave it blank, the register makes up a number for you, and the Generate button

15
00:01:04.342 --> 00:01:07.114
does the same. We type the number from the card.

16
00:01:07.958 --> 00:01:13.596
Tap Add to sale. The gift card is now a line in the cart, for fifty dollars. Notice

17
00:01:13.596 --> 00:01:18.962
that there is no sales tax on it. Tax is charged later, when the card is spent.

18
00:01:19.140 --> 00:01:23.236
Take payment in the usual way. The customer pays fifty dollars in cash.

19
00:01:25.544 --> 00:01:29.955
The card is now active with fifty dollars on it, and the customer can use it

20
00:01:29.955 --> 00:01:31.580
straight away. Tap New sale.

21
00:01:32.893 --> 00:01:35.726
Now the customer spends the card. A medium hoodie.

22
00:01:37.283 --> 00:01:39.249
Tap Pay, and choose Gift Card.

23
00:01:42.241 --> 00:01:47.000
Scan the card, or type its number. Then tap Check balance, so you and the customer

24
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:49.322
can see what is on it before it is used.

25
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:55.881
The card has fifty dollars. Tap Apply Gift Card. The register takes only what the

26
00:01:55.881 --> 00:01:58.510
sale needs, and leaves the rest on the card.

27
00:01:59.896 --> 00:02:04.552
The receipt shows the gift card as the payment, with only the last four digits of

28
00:02:04.552 --> 00:02:08.345
the number. The remaining balance stays on the card for next time.

29
00:02:09.070 --> 00:02:12.063
In the next episode, we check in a repair as a work order.
