Online Gift Card Promotions – the fast and easy way to boost salon revenues

November 11, 2021

< 1 min

Phorest’s Online Gift Card Promotions allows salons to offer bonuses and discounts on gift cards, helping to boost sales during the festive season and on special occasions.

As 35% of all gift cards are NEVER redeemed, this feature is incredibly important to salons. By offering a discount on gift cards, salons can increase their revenue without being impacted financially.

It’s a win win!

To get started, go to Manager > Settings > Online > Gift Card Sales.

Change the Enable a discount on online gift card setting to On and choose to either offer an Added Value or a Discount.

For more information on how to set up this feature, please see the following guides:
