Gift certificates allow you to offer prepaid credits that customers can purchase and redeem toward your classes, camps, or programs.
They are a flexible way to:

  • Encourage new enrollments and referrals.

  • Simplify gift giving for families and friends

Who’s Involved

  • Admins: Configure the gift certificate settings in the Jumbula Dashboard. 

  • Purchasers (Customers): Buy gift certificates online from your organization’s gift card page.

  • Recipients (Customers?): Receive the digital gift card and use it as payment during registration.

Before You Begin

Setting your Gift Card

Once you’ve enabled the feature, a Customize Purchase section will appear. This is where you’ll configure your gift card details.

Buying a Gift Card

Purchasers can buy gift certificates from your organization’s homesite by adding /giftcard to your URL, as in: yourdomain.jumbula.com/giftcard.
You can:
- Add this link to your home site (see Jumbula homesite overview
- Send the URL out via an email campaign (see Email campaigns overview).
When customers open the link, they’ll see a purchase page displaying the image and message you configured in Step 3.
