List of voucher types

By clicking on the arrow in the field Active voucher types can be changed to Inactive voucher types. You can reactivate an inactive voucher type at any time.

Edit voucher types

Choose in the e-guma Voucher System menu Settings -> Voucher types -> Edit. Click on the name of a voucher type to open it.

Title

The title corresponds to the name of the voucher in the online shop. If multiple languages are configured in your e-guma voucher system, you can customise the name in all languages enabled.

Publish/Deactivate

With this checkbox you can set whether the voucher should be visible in the online shop as well as on location, only in the online shop or only on location.

If you deactivate the checkbox, the voucher type is not activated for online or local sales.

When calling up a voucher type that is not (or no longer) published, 404 is returned as a status code. Google recognises from this status code that this url must be removed from the search index.

Hidden in online shop

Voucher types with this option are not displayed on the start page of the online shop and in the categories. They can be called up with the direct url.

When listing the voucher types, you can see whether a voucher type is hidden in the online shop.

Categories

Categories are used to group voucher types in the online shop. You can choose one or more categories. You can change the order of the voucher types in the category. Learn more about creating categories here.

Languages

If several languages are activated in your e-guma Voucher System, you can individually determine which languages you would like to activate a voucher offer in.

URL of the voucher type

By clicking on Open in online shop you can go directly to the corresponding voucher offer in the online shop.

Graphics in the online shop

By clicking on the button Choose image you can change the image in the online shop. The graphic should have a minimum width and height of 600 x 500px. e-guma optimises the graphic for display in the online shop.

If you want to have a new image on the voucher printout, please contact us so that we can change the image for you.

Description in the online shop

The description in the online shop is displayed on the detail page of the voucher.

Title on the voucher

This term appears on the printout of the voucher. If you do not enter a name, e-guma will use the title which is used on the online shop.

The title can contain placeholders. It is important that you do not edit/delete these. You can recognise a placeholder from the curly brackets - e.g. {{Persons.Count | plural: 'PERSON', 'PEOPLE'}} .

We recommend that you check the voucher printout after each modification. To do this, click on the blue Voucher preview button.

Voucher preview

After making any adjustments, we recommend that you check the voucher printout. To do this, click on the blue Voucher preview button.

If you have set up the voucher in multiple languages, it is best to check all language versions.

In addition to the correctness of the texts and prices, pay attention to the length of the texts. This check ensures that there is no overlap with any personal dedication.

The individual shipping method cannot be used if only one shipping method is activated in the settings of the voucher shop.

If there are two voucher types with different shipping methods in the shopping basket of the voucher shop, the following message appears: "These vouchers cannot be ordered together. Please order these vouchers separately".

Vouchers, which have reached the contingent, are marked in the online shop with "Sold out".

          

Maximum number of vouchers per order in the online shop

Personalizable

Define whether a voucher can be personalised with a "for" / "from" and a personal dedication. This option is active by default.
