Since giftcards are very popular, how does Viart handle it?
 
Does gift-voucher(product type) work? Also how to setup free S/H with automatic email delivery?
 
How is the security? Obviously it can only be use once, no expiration date preferred.
 
Also how to put a separation between category menu? eg. if I put giftcard in product menu, since it's NOT a real product, it better has a separation.
 
Thanks.

In our site
 
http://www.entermediaplus.com
 
the solution is to use certain valued gift card like physical goods, designated as tax-free, classified as gift-voucher (instead of product). Then setup another shipping method with free cost for shipping with the weight bound from 0 to 0 (I guess you need to setup all other non-gift card products to non-zero weight. This seems work. Anybody has a better way?
 
Regarding to separation, it may be achieved to modify category block temperate, but I used a category named "__________", seems did the trick.
 
Please share your tricks and critics, so we can make our sites look more professional.
 
Thanks.

We were finally able to get the gift card problem solved..and working fine.
 
1- creat a new product style called gift card
2-select generate gift voucher
3-create a category called gift cards
4-create your gift cards
 
You will be notified when one sold if you recieve sale invoices.
 
after sale go too products/coupons...edit the coupon
make active....set any expirery dates, and most important...select user that can use it....
