Digital issuance and email delivery keep fulfillment predictable; balances update so guests always know what is left to spend.
Apply gift value online or in house with the same guest profile and ordering rails you already run—no parallel spreadsheets.
Branded delivery means the moment of purchase does not end at checkout: guests receive a clear, shareable card they can use on your direct channel.

GIFT CARD
Redeem online or in venue with the same guest profile.
Yes. Sales run on your Menuella-powered site and brand—guests choose an amount, check out, and receive a digital card without being sent to a generic marketplace.
Digital cards are issued automatically and delivered by email with your branding, so the recipient gets a clear code or link to redeem on your channel.
Redemption follows your setup: typically online checkout and in-venue payment can both draw from the same stored balance, with remaining credit tracked automatically.
Gift cards are sold on your direct channel with no marketplace commission on those sales—pricing and margin stay under your control.
They complement loyalty and ordering: stored value rides the same guest and sales rails, so marketing, repeat visits, and checkout stay connected instead of siloed.

Gifting should take seconds, not a phone tag with the manager. Balanced flows for digital gift cards—purchase, delivery, redemption, and fraud guardrails—on owned channels.
Digital gift cards put cash in your account before the guest walks in—without marketplace take rates on the purchase. Why stored value belongs in first-party stacks, how it pairs with checkout and branded apps, and how Menuella keeps balances, redemption, and menu truth aligned.
