BusinessMind offers two gift card solutions for your use.  This article will describe how to sell/replenish a physical Gift Card.  
Before you can start to sell and or replenish physical gift cards in BusinessMind you will need to purchase compatible gift cards for the BusinessMind Point of Sale.  For assistance on ordering compatible gift cards please email support@dcit.com.  

NOTE:  You can create an eGift Card on the fly with no pre-setup that does not require a physical card.   An eGift Card is instead emailed to the recipient.  Information on how to create an eGift Card can be found here.  http://docs.bmjapp.help/en/articles/3306974-how-to-create-a-egift-card-from-the-point-of-sale

The below instructions assume you have purchased compatible gift cards.

  • From the Point of Sale select the customer info if needed (this is optional)

  • Click the Gift Card button

  • Here you can scan the barcode found on the gift card you are creating/replenishing or you can type this info in directly (if typing press the return or tab key to advance once the 16 digit code is filled in).  Once scanned or typed in you will be taken to the replenshiment screen.

  • Utilize the helpful fill amount buttons or manually type the amount to add to the gift cards. This will now add the Gift Card to the transaction.

  • Click the Charge button to bring up the payment processor and record the payment.

  • The Gift Card is now has a value assigned and can be utilized.

NOTE;  If a customer returns with an existing gift card you can utilize the same process to replenish it.
