Wix Mobile POS: Selling Physical Gift Cards at a Mobile POS
6 min read
Important:
The Wix POS solution for mobile phones is available only in the US and Canada. If you are located elsewhere, you can check out third-party integrations.
You can sell physical gift cards right from your phone at your mobile POS. Customers can then use them to pay for their purchases. It's a great way to encourage customer loyalty.
Step 1 | Order physical gift cards
To get started, design and order your physical cards.
Tip:
Gift cards do not have a set dollar value. You assign a value when you sell the physical gift card to your customer.
Select where you want to order your cards:
Order cards in the Wix dashboard
Order cards through eCard Systems
Order from any other supplier
Step 2 | Enable gift cards in your dashboard
Before you can start selling gift cards at your point of sale, you need to go to your Wix dashboard and enable gift cards for your site.
To enable gift cards:
- Go to Gift Cards in your site's dashboard.
- If you haven't already done so, click Add Gift Card to Site.
Important:
Clicking Add Gift Card to site adds a Gift Card page to your site and menu. You should either set up gift cards or hide the new page from your site's menu.
- In the Wix dashboard, select the Let customers enter their own custom amount checkbox and click Save.
Note: This tab must be selected to enable the sale of gift cards on your mobile device.
Step 3 | Select preset gift card values
When you sell gift cards to customers, you're asked to select the gift card value. You'll see a number of preset values which you can select. If enabled, you can also enter a custom amount.
To select which gift card values are displayed:
- Go to your site in the Wix app.
- Tap Manage
at the bottom. - Scroll down to the Getting Paid section and tap Point of Sale.
- Tap the More Actions icon
at the top right. - Select POS settings.
- Tap Physical gift cards.
- Enter the preset amounts you want to display.
- Click the Let customers choose their own amount to enable or disable it:
- Enabled: The Custom Amount option is displayed when you sell gift cards and you can enter an amount.
- Disabled: The Custom Amount option is not displayed when you sell gift cards. You'll only be able to select one of the preset values.
Step 4 | Sell physical gift cards
After you receive your cards and enabled gift cards in the dashboard, you can start selling physical gift cards to your customers.
To sell gift cards:
- Go to your site in the Wix app.
- Tap Manage at the bottom.
- Scroll down to the Getting Paid section and tap Point of Sale.
- Tap the Gift Cards tab.
- Tap Issue a physical gift card.
- Choose a physical gift card and select an option:
- Scan the card's code.
