the Gift Cards API and Gift Card Activities API to create and manage Square gift cards.{% /subheading %}\n\n{% toc hide=true /%}\n\n## Overview\n\n[Square gift cards](https://{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/gift-cards) allow sellers to offer a complete gifting program that can boost sales and attract new customers. Gift cards can be purchased online or in person and redeemed at all of the seller's locations. Buyers can send gift cards to friends and family to introduce them to a seller's business.\n\nDevelopers use the [Gift Cards API](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/gift-cards-api) and [Gift Card Activities API](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/gift-card-activities-api) to integrate gift cards into their applications. Watch the following video to see how the APIs work:\n\n{% youtube src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/2tUbxgkjjCo?si=B6AgXb08P2tdu9F3\" /%}\n\nYou can also send [Square GraphQL](devtools/graphql) queries for read-only access to gift card data and use [webhook events](gift-cards/webhooks) to keep track of activities.\n\n{% aside type=\"info\" %}\nSellers use [Square Point of Sale](https://{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/point-of-sale) and the [Square Dashboard](https://app.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/dashboard/gift-cards) to sell, redeem, track, or reload Square gift cards. Sellers can publish an eGift Card Order Site where buyers can purchase gift cards.\n\nBuyers can view and manage their gift cards from their [Square profile](https://profile.squareup.com/).\n{% /aside %}\n\n## Requirements and limitations\n\nThe following requirements, limitations, and other considerations apply when working with the Gift Cards API and Gift Card Activities API:\n\n* **OAuth permissions** - Applications using OAuth require `GIFTCARDS_READ` for read operations and `GIFTCARDS_WRITE` for write operations.\n\n Additional permissions might be required in gift card flows. For example:\n * `CUSTOMERS_READ` - To get a customer ID to link a gift card.\n * `PAYMENTS_WRITE` - To [charge a gift card on file](gift-cards/manage-gift-cards-on-file#take-gift-card-on-file-payment).\n * `PAYMENTS_WRITE` and `ORDERS_WRITE` - To activate or reload gift cards using Orders API integration.\n\n Learn more about [OAuth](oauth-api/overview) and [endpoint permission requirements](oauth-api/square-permissions##gift-cards).\n\n* **Gift card delivery** - The developer is responsible for [delivering information for digital gift cards](gift-cards/sell-gift-cards#deliver-gift-cards) created using the Gift Cards API.\n\n* **Security of custom GANs** - The developer is responsible for ensuring the security of [custom GANs](#custom-gans). For example, to mitigate the risk of fraud, don't use repeatable patterns or GANs that are easy to guess (such as 12345678).\n\n* **No application fees** - Developers cannot collect application fees for gift card payments.`CreatePayment` returns a `BAD_REQUEST` error if the `app_fee_money` field is included in a request to create a Square gift card payment.\n\n{% anchor id=\"load-fees\" /%}\n* **Load fees** - Sellers in the following countries pay 2.5% of the amount added to a Square gift card, in addition to standard payment processing rates:\n * Australia\n * Canada\n * United States\n\n Load fees apply to `ACTIVATE`, `LOAD`, and `ADJUST_INCREMENT` activities. There are no fees when a gift card is redeemed or refunded. For more information, see [Gift cards pricing](payments-pricing#gift-cards-pricing).\n\n Square deducts or refunds load fees in seller payouts. To see all load fee deductions and refunds for a given payout, call [ListPayoutEntries](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/payouts-api/list-payout-entries) and iterate through the results to find following entry types:\n\n * [GIFT_CARD_LOAD_FEE](payouts-api/list-payout-entries#gift_card_load_fee)\n * [GIFT_CARD_LOAD_FEE_REFUND](payouts-api/list-payout-entries#gift_card_load_fee_refund)\n * [UNDO_GIFT_CARD_LOAD_FEE_REFUND](payouts-api/list-payout-entries#undo_gift_card_load_fee_refund)\n\n* **Customer linking limits** - When saving [gift cards on file](gift-cards/manage-gift-cards-on-file): \n * The maximum number of gift cards you can link to a customer profile is 50.\n * The maximum number of customer profiles you can link to a gift card is 10.\n\n* **Square Dashboard reporting** - When third-party applications use [Orders API or Payments API integration](#integration-with-orders-api-and-payments-api) to reload or redeem a gift card, the Square Dashboard reports include these transactions. In contrast, there's no reporting when reloading and redeeming gift cards using non-Square APIs.\n\n All activated gift cards are listed in the Square Dashboard regardless of the system used to process the gift card order. However, if the gift card order was processed with non-Square APIs, the **Receipt** link to the transaction isn't available from the gift card's **Activity** card in the **Gift Cards** section.\n\n* **Square API integration** - Additional requirements and limitations apply when [integrating with other Square APIs](#integration-with-square-apis). \n\n* **Activity history** - `ACTIVATE`, `CLEAR_BALANCE`, and `IMPORT` activities that occurred before March 2, 2016, aren't included in `ListGiftCardActivities` results or when viewing the activity history in the Square Dashboard.\n\n{% anchor id=\"giftcard\" /%}\n## Gift Cards API\n\nYou can create gift cards, retrieve gift card information, and manage gift cards on file.\n\nThe following example `CreateGiftCard` request creates a `DIGITAL` gift card. You can also use this endpoint to register a `PHYSICAL` gift card.\n\n{% tabset %}\n{% tab id=\"CreateGiftCard request\" %}\n\n ```endpoint:GiftCards-CreateGiftCard\n {\n \"authentication\": {\n \"accessToken\": \"{ACCESS_TOKEN}\"\n },\n \"bodyParameters\": {\n \"gift_card\": {\n \"type\": \"DIGITAL\"\n },\n \"location_id\": \"M8AKAD8160XGR\",\n \"idempotency_key\": \"a1do2d6c-28bc-3810-4se4d\"\n },\n \"environment\": \"sandbox\"\n }\n ```\n\n{% /tab %}\n{% tab id=\"GiftCard object in response\" %}\n\n```json copy_code\n{\n \"gift_card\": {\n \"id\": \"gftc:012440e514754c42990f3de4527498dc\",\n \"type\": \"DIGITAL\",\n \"gan_source\": \"SQUARE\",\n \"state\": \"PENDING\",\n \"balance_money\": {\n \"amount\": 0,\n \"currency\": \"USD\"\n },\n \"gan\": \"7783320002382646\",\n \"created_at\": \"2024-08-11T18:49:34Z\"\n }\n}\n``` \n\nGift cards are represented by a [GiftCard](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCard) object. The `gan` is the gift card number, also called the redemption code.\n\nGift cards can be [saved as gift cards on file](gift-cards/manage-gift-cards-on-file). The IDs of any linked customers are listed in the `customer_ids` field.\n\n```json copy_code\n{\n \"gift_card\": {\n \"id\": \"gftc:012440e514754c42990f3de4527498dc\",\n \"type\": \"DIGITAL\",\n \"gan_source\": \"SQUARE\",\n \"state\": \"PENDING\",\n \"balance_money\": {\n \"amount\": 0,\n \"currency\": \"USD\"\n },\n \"customer_ids\": [\n \"ASG67K1YGCSQQ47KSW7J7WX53M\", \n \"QNTC0TYTWMRSFFQ157KK4V7MVR\"\n ],\n \"gan\": \"7783320002382646\",\n \"created_at\": \"2024-08-11T18:49:34Z\"\n }\n}\n``` \n\n{% /tab %}\n{% /tabset %}\n\nNew gift cards have a `PENDING` state and zero balance. After creating a gift card, call `CreateGiftCardActivity` to activate it with an initial balance before first use. For steps, see [Sell Square Gift Cards](gift-cards/sell-gift-cards).\n\nThe `id` and `gan` fields are used in API requests. For example, use:\n* `gan` with the Web Payments SDK or In-App Payments SDK to generate a `source_id` for a gift card payment in a `CreatePayment` request.\n* `id` as the `source_id` for a gift card on file payment in a `CreatePayment` request.\n* `id` as the `destination_id` when issuing store credit in a `CreateRefund` request.

You can use the `CreateGiftCardActivity` endpoint to create the following activity types:\n\n{% table %}\n* Activity type {% width=\"220px\" %}\n* Description\n---\n* `ACTIVATE`\n* Activates a gift card with a balance. A gift card must be in the `ACTIVE` state to be used for any other activity.

For more information, see [Reload Square Gift Cards](gift-cards/reload-gift-cards).\n\n Details field: [load_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityLoad)\n---\n* `REDEEM`\n* Redeems funds from a gift card after a gift card payment.\n\n If your application uses the Payments API to make a gift card payment, Square automatically creates a `REDEEM` activity that updates the gift card balance after the payment is completed. For more information, see [Redeem Square Gift Cards](gift-cards/redeem-gift-cards).\n\n Details field: [redeem_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityRedeem)\n---\n* `CLEAR_BALANCE`\n* Sets a gift card balance to zero. This activity should be called before reusing a physical gift card.\n\n When a physical gift card reaches a zero balance for any reason, Square automatically unlinks all customers from the gift card. This behavior helps keep the linked customer profile setting up to date if the card is reused.\n\n Details field: [clear_balance_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityClearBalance)\n---\n* `DEACTIVATE`\n* Permanently blocks a gift card from any future balance-changing activities. This activity should be called to prevent a gift card from being used (for example, before discarding a physical gift card or if the card is lost or stolen).\n\n Details field: [deactivate_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityDeactivate)\n---\n* `ADJUST_INCREMENT`\n* Increases a gift card balance when the adjustment isn't related to a gift card order or payment. To increase the balance based on gift card orders or payments, use the appropriate `LOAD`, `REFUND`, or `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activity.\n\n Details field: [adjust_increment_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityAdjustIncrement)\n---\n* `ADJUST_DECREMENT`\n* Decreases a gift card balance when the adjustment isn't related to a gift card payment. To decrease the balance based on a gift card payment, use the `REDEEM` activity.\n\n Details field: [adjust_decrement_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityAdjustDecrement)\n---\n* `REFUND`\n* Adds money to a gift card from a refunded transaction. Refunds linked to a Square payment have a `payment_id`. Refunds to the same gift card used to make the payment have a `redeem_activity_id`.\n\n If your application uses the Refunds API to refund a payment to a gift card, Square automatically creates a `REFUND` activity that updates the gift card balance. Applications that use a custom processing system for {% tooltip text=\"same-method gift card refunds\" %}Refunds a payment to the same gift card used to make the payment.{% /tooltip %} must explicitly create a `REFUND` activity and specify the `redeem_activity_id`.\n\n Details field: [refund_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityRefund)\n---\n* `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND`\n* Adds money to a gift card from a refunded transaction that wasn't paid with the same gift card.\n\n This activity type is used by applications that use a custom processing system for {% tooltip text=\"cross-method gift card refunds\" %}Refunds a payment to a gift card that wasn't used to make the payment.{% /tooltip %}.\n\n Details field: [unlinked_activity_refund_activity_details](https://developer.{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/reference/square/objects/GiftCardActivityUnlinkedActivityRefund)\n{% /table%}\n\n{% anchor id=\"unsupported-activities\" /%}\n{% accordion expanded=false %} \n{% slot \"heading\" %}\n#### Unsupported activity types\n{% /slot %}\n\nYou cannot use `CreateGiftCardActivities` to create the following activity types:\n\n* `BLOCK` or `UNBLOCK` - Square manages these activities while processing chargeback transactions for disputed payments.\n* `IMPORT` or `IMPORT_REVERSAL` - Sellers must work with Square Support to import [third-party gift cards](#third-party-gift-cards) or reverse previously imported gift cards.\n* `TRANSFER_BALANCE_TO` or `TRANSFER_BALANCE_FROM` - Square creates these activities when a buyer transfers money between gift cards linked to their [Square profile](https://profile.squareup.com).\n\nHowever, these activity types are included in `ListGiftCardActivities` results and invoke `gift_card.activity.created` and `gift_card.updated` [webhook events](gift-cards/webhooks).\n\n{% /accordion %}\n\n{% aside type=\"info\" %}\nYou can call `ListGiftCardActivities` to view all activities or a filtered set of activities.

When using earlier Square API versions, `GetRefund` returns an `API_VERSION_INCOMPATIBLE` error and `ListRefunds` omits cross-method gift card refunds from the results.\n * Using `GetPayment` or `ListPayments` to get `refunded_money` or `refund_ids` details related to the refund. When using earlier Square API versions, this information is omitted from the returned payments. Therefore, the payment IDs in corresponding `REFUND` activity details aren't useful for tracking refund activity.\n* Refunding to a new gift card activates the card by changing the `PENDING` state to `ACTIVE` and adding an initial balance equal to the refund amount. This process creates a `REFUND` activity but doesn't create an `ACTIVATE` activity.\n* Gift cards with custom GANs cannot receive cross-method refunds using the Refunds API.\n\n{% accordion expanded=false %}\n{% slot \"heading\" %}\n#### Custom refund processing (non-Square APIs)\n{% /slot %}\n\nIf your application doesn't use the Refunds API to process refunds, you must call `CreateGiftCardActivity` to create the `REFUND` or `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activity.\n* For {% tooltip text=\"same-method gift card refunds\" %}Refunds a payment to the same gift card used to make the payment.{% /tooltip %} - Create a `REFUND` activity and provide the following activity details in the request:\n * `amount_money`\n * `redeem_activity_id`\n * `reference_id` (optional)\n* For {% tooltip text=\"cross-method gift card refunds\" %}Refunds a payment to a gift card that wasn't used to make the payment.{% /tooltip %} - Create an `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activity and provide the following activity details in the request:\n * `amount_money`\n * `reference_id` (optional)\n\n`REFUND` and `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activities created by custom processing systems don't have a `payment_id` because they aren't linked to a Square payment.\n\n{% /accordion %}\n{% /accordion %}\n","programmingLanguage":"All","platform":"All"},{"type":"markdown","name":"gift-cards-api : overview : custom gans, physical gift cards, 3p gift cards. sandbox testing","markdown":"{% anchor id=\"custom-gans\" /%}\n## Custom GANs\n\nThe `CreateGiftCard` endpoint allows you to specify a custom GAN when you create a gift card. The custom GAN that you provide in the request must meet the following requirements:\n\n* The custom GAN must be unique for the Square seller account. \n* The custom GAN must contain 8 to 20 alphanumeric characters. Note that only numeric characters can be used if you want to generate [QR codes or barcodes](#scanning).\n* The custom GAN cannot start with:\n * A bank identification number (BIN) pattern used by major credit cards (such as Visa, Mastercard, and American Express).\n * A BIN used by Square gift cards: 778273 (physical) or 778332 (digital).\n\nGift cards created with a custom GAN have a `gan_source` of `OTHER`.\n\n{% aside type=\"info\" %}\nFor an example `CreateGiftCard` request that creates a gift card with a custom GAN, see [Create or register the gift card](gift-cards/sell-gift-cards#create-gift-card).\n{% /aside %}\n\nCustom GANs can enable scenarios that aren't possible with Square-assigned GANs. For example, they can be used for gift card redemptions across multiple Square sellers and channels, to attach a value to non-gift-card items such as tickets, and to allow sellers to accept gift cards created by external sites. Gift cards with custom GANs can be redeemed just like gift cards with Square-assigned GANs.\n\nBuyers use GANs to make gift card payments and check the gift card balance. It's the responsibility of the developer to ensure the security of their custom GANs. For example, to mitigate the risk of fraud, avoid using repeatable patterns or GANs that are easy to guess (such as 12345678).\n\nYou should be aware of the following limitation for gift cards with custom GANs:\n\n* After using the `LinkCustomerToGiftCard` endpoint to add a gift card on file for a customer profile, the customer ID is added to the `customer_ids` field of the `gift_card` object. However, linked gift cards that have custom GANs aren't currently visible as a card on file for the customer in Square products, such as Square Point of Sale or the Square Dashboard.\n\n{% anchor id=\"scanning\" /%}\n## QR code and barcode scanning\n\nAlthough Square APIs don't provide native code-generation support, you can use a third-party solution to generate a QR code or barcode for digital gift cards. For example, the [Gift Card API Sample App](https://github.com/square/connect-api-examples/tree/master/connect-examples/v2/node_gift-cards/public/js/generate-barcode.js) uses a JavaScript library to generate barcodes.\n\nWhen generating a QR code or barcode, the encoded message must include the gift card number (GAN) in the following format:\n\n\u003e`sqgc://\u003cGIFT_CARD_NUMBER\u003e` (for example: `sqgc://82000571903`)\n\n* Gift cards with a Square-assigned GAN have the `gan_source` field set to `SQUARE`. These gift cards can be scanned in Square Point of Sale.\n\n* Gift cards with a [custom GAN](#custom-gans) have the `gan_source` field set to `OTHER`. To support scanning with the `sqgc://` prefix, the GAN must:\n * Not start with a BIN used by major credit cards.\n * Not start with a BIN used by Square gift cards: 778273 (physical) or 778332 (digital).\n * Contain numeric characters only.\n * Pass the [Luhn algorithm check](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm).\n\nNote that physical (plastic) Square gift cards are imprinted with a QR code and barcode.\n\n## Physical gift cards\nNote the following when working with physical (plastic) gift cards:\n\n\n * Physical gift cards are imprinted with a 16-digit GAN and a barcode. The GAN is numeric only and starts with 778273. The GAN is stored in the `gan` field of the `GiftCard` object.\n\n * To sell physical gift cards, the seller must have previously ordered the gift card from Square and the gift card must be unused. Sellers can [order a pack of Square gift cards](https://{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/help/us/en/article/5393-order-your-square-gift-cards) in the Square Dashboard.\n\n * Testing physical gift cards in the Square Sandbox isn't supported. \n\n * When a physical gift card reaches a zero balance for any reason, Square automatically unlinks all customers from the gift card. This behavior helps keep the linked customer profiles setting current if the card is reused.\n\n{% anchor id=\"third-party-gift-cards\" /%}\n## Third-party gift cards\n\nIf a seller previously purchased gift cards from another gift card provider (not from Square) and sold them to customers, the seller must follow a one-time process with Square Support to import these third-party gift cards into Square. The seller can then accept these gift cards for redemption like Square gift cards. Third-party gift cards cannot be reloaded. \n\nFor third-party gift cards, the `gan` field can contain a maximum of 255 characters and `gan_source` is `OTHER`.\n\n{% aside type=\"info\" %}\nIf you attempt to migrate third-party gift cards by creating digital Square gift cards programmatically, you might receive compliance limit or rate limit errors. For more information, [contact Developer Support](https://{{SQUARE_DOMAIN}}/help/contact?panel=BF53A9C8EF68).\n{% /aside %}\n\n## Sandbox testing\nYou can create and manage Square gift cards in the [Square Sandbox](devtools/sandbox/overview). In addition, Square provides a test value that you can use to test gift card payments. For more information, see [Testing gift card payments in the Sandbox](gift-cards/redeem-gift-cards#sandbox-gift-card-payments).\n\nThe following limitations apply to testing gift card payments in the Sandbox:\n* Creating, managing, and testing with physical gift cards isn't supported.\n* The Virtual Terminal doesn't accept gift card payments.\n* The Web Payments SDK and In-App Payments SDK only accept Sandbox test values provided by Square. These values aren't tied to any gift cards in your account, so you cannot check whether the balance of the gift card is updated.","programmingLanguage":"All","platform":"All"},{"type":"markdown","name":"gift-cards-api : overview : compliance limits, migration notes, related topics","markdown":"{% anchor id=\"compliance-limits\" /%}\n## Compliance limits\n\nSquare enforces the following compliance limits for gift card activities that load funds onto digital or physical gift cards: \n\n* **Maximum balance amount per gift card** - The maximum amount for a gift card balance.\n* **Maximum load amount per gift card per day** - The maximum amount that can be loaded onto a gift card in a 24-hour

for cross-tender refunds made from Square products\n\nEffective date: 2022-06-16\n\nAll cross-tender refunds made from Square Point of Sale or the Square Dashboard are now processed as `REFUND` activities instead of `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activities. This type of refund occurs when a gift card is refunded for a payment that was processed by Square and paid for using a credit card or different gift card. The resulting `REFUND` activity has a `payment_id` but doesn't have a `redeem_activity_id`.\n\nExisting `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activities that represent cross-tender refunds made from Square Point of Sale or the Square Dashboard are now also returned as `REFUND` activities for a `ListGiftCardActivities` request. This change applies to all Square versions.\n\nHowever, new and existing `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activities that are explicitly created by third-party applications continue to be returned as `UNLINKED_ACTIVITY_REFUND` activities.\n\n{% /accordion %}\n\n## See also\n\n* [Video: Sandbox 101: Gift Cards API](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tUbxgkjjCo)\n* [Sample Application: Gift Card API
