Gift cards in Shopify are often treated like cash, providing a versatile way to reward your customers. However, automatically adding a “free gift card” to a customer’s cart based on spending can be tricky on the front end.
While reward programs can manage the issuance of gift cards and automated emails, you’ll likely need to customize your Shopify theme to visually represent this “Card Free Gift” in the customer’s cart. Think of it like the theme adjustments for gift wrapping – this can be a helpful starting point if you have some JavaScript experience and want a DIY approach.
For a more streamlined solution to email delivery of gift cards, consider apps like Rise.AI, which offers near out-of-the-box functionality.
Shopify Flow also provides templates that can automate aspects of this process. A relevant template example can be found here.
Furthermore, automation tools like UseMechanic can be adapted to issue gift cards or discounts. While many of their scripts focus on discounts, with advanced configuration, UseMechanic can also manage store credit through order modifications. This script for crediting customers for sample orders (https://tasks.mechanic.dev/credit-customers-for-sample-orders) offers a related example.
