I did the gift card thing and am going back to certificates. I did the gift card through my credit card processor. The cards cost about $1.50 each/minimum 100 generic design, custom design availabe at additional cost. I also pay $30/month for processing fees (regardless of any sales). When I tried to cancel, I dicovered that I had signed a two year contract and can't get out of it until next August. We went back to paper certificates that I design and print on glossy postcard stock. We sell a lot in December, February and May...other than that they are few and far between. Unless you do a huge volume I would steer clear of the cards. |
