Gift cards
Coming soon. This isn't available to customers yet.
Sell a Store gift card with fixed amount variants and a bounded custom amount. Store keeps its remaining balance; paid purchases show a private code in the buyer's confirmation or email it to a recipient.

Example
A fictional salon adds a Gift card product with $25, $50 and $100 USD variants and a custom range of $20–$500. A buyer chooses $75, picks Email to a recipient, enters their sister's name and email, adds a message and picks her birthday morning. After payment, the confirmation says the card will be emailed to her then, without showing the code. The recipient applies it to a later purchase, with only the remaining amount charged externally. This is an illustrative scenario, not a production delivery claim.
Limits
Store remains Soon for ordinary members; only the active platform superuser can exercise the current implementation. A positive card payment also needs the merchant's approved, ready payment connection; adding this product does not activate payments.
One gift card and one discount code can be applied to a purchase. Gift-card codes and purchaser, recipient and message records are private, never Data-on-the-site content. Amounts are currency minor units; for example 2500 means $25.00 USD but 2500 yen JPY. A gift card is not a recurring payment plan.
