# Gift card A `gift card` is a special type of product. Its value can be used as payment toward future orders from your online store. You can use gift cards in any of the following ways: * Sell them in an online store like any other product. * Share links to gift card products on social media. * Issue a gift card to a customer for free as a reward or incentive. When you fulfill an order with a gift card, the customer receives an email that contains a unique gift card code that they can use at checkout to redeem its value. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
