Create a voucher manually
On this page
To do this, you need at least one voucher product configured, and a recipient contact record with a valid email address.
- In the App Launcher, search for Vouchers.
-
Click New to create a new voucher record.

- Select the Store where the voucher will be used.
- Enter the Opening Balance (initial value) in your store’s currency (e.g., 50 for a $50 voucher).
- Select the Product that this voucher relates to (must be a voucher product).
- Select the Recipient (Contact) who will receive the voucher via email. If this is not known, select the person responsible for issuing the voucher.
- Enter a unique code for the voucher, or leave blank to autogenerate a secure 16-character alphanumeric number.
- (Optional) Enter an Expires At date. Leave it blank for no expiry.
- (Optional) Enter an Activate Before Date to set a deadline by which the voucher must be activated. After this date and time, the customer cannot activate the voucher and will see an error if they try.
- (Optional) Change the Usage setting if it should differ from the product default.
- (Optional) Enter a PIN that must be given to redeem the voucher. If the product’s Voucher Requires field includes PIN, leave this blank instead: StoreConnect generates a 6-character PIN when you save the voucher, and replaces any value entered here.
- (Optional) Check Resend Email to send the voucher immediately upon saving.
- Click Save.
