Wix Gift Cards provide customers with a flexible and convenient way to shop. In addition to customers purchasing gift cards themselves, you can manually issue a digital gift card directly from your dashboard. This is useful for compensating a customer, offering a promotional gift, or rewarding client loyalty.
