Hi
Im wanting to sell gift vouchers via my actinic store which are also fully redeemable via the store.
Correct me if im wrong in the following;
I can set up a 'coupon' that triggers a discount for the gift voucher value when someone is using it to buy a product
BUT
The coupon code can not be automatically disabled once it has been used.
Therefore I would have to manually disable all coupon codes once they had been used once. I would also just have to hope that customers don't try and make more than one purchase with the code.
Also I can see from other threads that trying to get gift vouchers not to trigger shipping charges can also be problematic. As can having £0.00 value sale value when integrating with a PSP. Mmmm, all in all Im not looking forward to getting this (surely basic in any ecommerce system) functionality to work...:-(
At the moment the only real solution i can see is for us to handle voucher redemption manually outside of Actinic. i.e, instruct gift voucher holders to find what they want on your website and then telephone or email their order in. Not ideal.
Has anyone come up with a workable solution to a proper gift voucher selling and redeeming scheme in Actinic? If so could you please let me have the exact details of how you get this to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
