YITH WooCommerce Gift Cards vs Coupon Shortcodes for WooCommerce

The easy way to sell gift cards in your shop According to a study by Allied Market Research, gift cards turnover will register a record of $16 billion by 2028. And, by 2030, gift cards sold online will reach the $1.1 trillion threshold. Gift cards are a powerful marketing tool to increase sales (especially during the holidays) and build customer loyalty over time. Think about it: it could be a Christmas gift for a friend, a birthday gift for a family member, or Christmas bonuses for your employees… a gift card is always the best choice! By offering your customers the opportunity to purchase a gift card that can be redeemed in your store, you can gain new customers (those who receive the gift card will know about your products and place an order, which means you will be able to push them to buy again and build their loyalty over time) and significantly increase your revenue.

Show coupon discount info using shortcodes. Allows to render coupon information and content conditionally, based on the validity of coupons. Customers can be motivated to proceed with their purchase, offering them to use specific coupons when the contents in the cart qualify for it, or by offering them to purchase additional items so they can use a coupon. This extension for WooCommerce is a useful addition that is easy to use. Works great with these premium extensions: Volume Discount Coupons, Group Coupons and Coupons Countdown. Conditional Shortcodes It provides the following conditional shortcodes that allow to enclose content which is shown if certain coupons are applied, valid or active: [coupon_is_active] [coupon_is_not_active] [coupon_is_applied] [coupon_is_not_applied] [coupon_is_valid] [coupon_is_not_valid] These conditional shortcodes allow to render content if any coupons are applied, valid or active: [coupon_has_valid] [coupon_has_not_valid] [coupon_has_active] [coupon_has_not_active] [coupon_has_applied] [coupon_has_not_applied] Coupon Info Shortcodes It also provides shortcodes that allow to render the coupon code, its description and an automatic description of the discount: [coupon_code] (this one makes sense mostly when used inside one of the conditional shortcodes). [coupon_description] [coupon_discount] [coupon_show] A coupon iterator shortcode makes it easy to work with a set of coupons, the enclosed content is rendered for each coupon in sequence. The informational shortcodes can be used inside the content of this shortcode to display details about each coupon code. [coupon_iterate] For example: [coupon_iterate code="test,welcome,20off"][coupon_code] – [coupon_discount][/coupon_iterate] A coupon enumerator shortcode allows to list all or a set of coupons, to show their code, description or discount information, or combinations of those using the [coupon_show] shortcode: [coupon_enumerate] Documentation Please refer to the plugin’s documentation pages for detailed descriptions. Examples Show a text when a coupon can be used (active) – this is useful to show promotional info while coupons can be used, as active means that the coupon has not reached its expiration date nor exceeded its usage limits: [coupon_is_active code="eastereggs"] Happy Easter! Use the coupon code [coupon_code] to hop away with a great discount : [coupon_discount] [/coupon_is_active] This is an example of a text shown when a promotion is over: [coupon_is_not_active code="specialdiscount"] Our special discount sale has ended.
