Import Gift Cards

Giftcards creates gift cards and funds them. A code we haven't seen before is created and activated; a code that already exists is topped up.

Find it in the admin under Reports & Imports › Imports, at app.fanmaker.com/admin/settings/imports. Pick Giftcards from the What are you importing? picker, then click Download example CSV to start from a file with the right headers.

Note: This import only appears for programs with gift cards switched on.

Import Rules

• card_code — the code printed on the card. This has to be the first column.

• amount — dollars, to two decimal places

• funding_account_id — the bank the card is funded from

• expiration_date — written as m/d/YYYY H:M:S. Leave it blank and the funds never expire.

• notes — added to the card's history. Leave it blank and we use "Added $X to Giftcard #X".

Optional column

• pos_restricted_id — restricts the value to a single POS integration ID. Leave it out and there's no restriction.

Note: If you don't know your funding account IDs, ask your Fanmaker point of contact or email [email protected].

Example CSV

A file with the headers card_code, amount, funding_account_id, expiration_date and notes, and one row reading:

• card_code — 123456

• amount — 100.56

• funding_account_id — 2

• expiration_date — 12/31/2028 13:17:09

• notes — Loaded $100.56

Worth knowing

Note: Cards are matched by code. That's what makes a second upload of the same code a top-up rather than a duplicate card — useful when you're reloading, and worth watching if you didn't mean to.

Note: This import loads real value and cannot be reverted. Read the review report and check the preview rows before you click Process this file.
