Viewing and redeeming a monetary gift voucher
Once a monetary gift voucher has been purchased (or gifted) to a client, it can be viewed by going to the client's profile and checking their account balance, and then using that against their desired purchase.
Steps
- Navigate to the relevant client
- On the Client tab, scroll down to the Account Balance field
- The history icon can be clicked to view the full history of a client's Account Balance, and you can also see the invoice number so you can track the purchase (via the Sales menu)
- To use the client account balance (and essentially redeem this monetary gift voucher), upon payment of a booking or product simply click the Use Balance link and it will automatically apply the client's account balance to that purchase. If it's only partially used, then the remaining amount will sit on the client's account balance ready for their next purchase.
