Sell Store Credit Based Gift Cards in WooCommerce Store

Last updated on March 27, 2026

The WebToffee Gift Cards for WooCommerce free plugin allows you to sell digital gift cards that act as a virtual balance for your customers. To start selling them, navigate to the Gift Cards menu in your WordPress dashboard, enable ‘Gift card product’ in the General settings, and select an order status (like ‘Completed’) to trigger the delivery. The plugin automatically creates a gift card product in your store, which you can then customize with specific price values and images to match your brand.

Store credit-based gift card

Store credit is a virtual balance or currency that allows customers to accrue funds within a specific online store. This balance can be employed to acquire products or services exclusively from that particular store. The Gift Card for WooCommerce seamlessly integrates this feature with gift cards, allowing customers to purchase store credits as gift cards and share them with their loved ones. Later, recipients can use the gift card to make purchases from the same store.

Set up gift card products in the store

Once you have the plugin installed and activated, follow these steps:

  1. From the dashboard, go to Gift Cards.
  2. In the General settings, enable Gift card product.
  3. Choose whether you want to generate the gift card coupon when the order is in Processing or Completed status.
  4. In the Templates section, select the template options you want to display in your store for the gift card.
