Corporate Gift Card & Stored Value Programs
Branded gift card programs on the Square Gift Cards API, with cards generated on demand: your custom design on both faces, any format you need, QR-code issuance, and Braille support. Settlement goes straight to your Square account.
Three Corporate Gift Card Programs We Build
Companies purchase blocks of branded gift cards to give to employees, clients, or partners. Custom denominations, personalized messaging, physical cards or digital delivery. The purchase flow handles bulk orders and routes activation to Square automatically.
Hotels, stadiums, and entertainment venues issue branded stored value cards that guests use across multiple outlets — restaurant, bar, spa, gift shop. One card, one Square account, all outlets.
For festivals, food halls, and multi-vendor events. Guests load credits at the entrance, spend by showing a QR code at any vendor booth, and receive a refund on unused balance after the event. See our Cashless product for the full SaaS implementation.
What a Corporate Gift Card Program Delivers
Square Gift Cards API Integration
We connect your purchase flow to Square's Gift Cards API. Cards are created, loaded, and activated in Square — all settlement happens in your Square account on Square's standard payout schedule.
Branded Card Design
Physical card design with your brand identity, custom QR codes, and variable denomination support. Digital gift code generation for email delivery. Both physical and digital can be active simultaneously.
Corporate Purchase Portal
A simple web portal where corporate clients enter their order: quantity, denomination, delivery preference, recipient list. The portal handles bulk creation, sends activation links or ships physical cards, and provides a purchase receipt.
Redemption at POS and Online
Gift cards redeem at Square POS and in Square-powered online checkout. If you are also on Medusa, the medusa-square-plugin extends gift card redemption to your headless storefront automatically.
Balance and Liability Reporting
Outstanding gift card liability tracked in real time. Reports show total issued, total redeemed, and outstanding balance by batch — so finance can account for deferred revenue accurately.
How custom can the physical cards be?
Every card is produced on demand with a unique QR code for instant issuance and redemption. Print a batch or send digital cards, exactly the quantity you need, when you need it.
Full custom artwork on the front and back of every card, in whatever format you choose, from premium printed plastic to digital wallet passes. Your brand, your layout, both sides.
Cards can be produced with Braille so recipients with visual impairments can identify and use them independently, making your program inclusive by default.
