A Word About Giftcards

est. reading time: 4 minutes.

Giftcards and Tax

Our giftcards are like any other form of payment (Wertpapier). There is no tax collected when sold, and there is no tax incurred when redeeming.

This means that if you sell a giftcard for say 50 EUR, then you charge the customer exactly 50 EUR (0% tax). And when you redeem a giftcard, you apply it like you would apply any other form of payment. Like with credit cards, the tax is collected on the products and items that are being purchased, but not on the form of payment that is used.

There is two fundamental things that you can do with giftcards: you can sell them or you can accept them as a form of payment. Go to the next page to learn how you can sell giftcards with this API. Then we will look at redeeming.
