Sometimes, it makes sense to generate gift cards out of Shopify (e.g. a refund to gift card from Shopify POS) and have these imported into Wrapped so they can be synced to your other sales channels. A challenge is that Shopify gift cards can only be imported into 3rd party systems (like Wrapped) if the full gift card code is known.
Fortunately, there is a way to do this but modifying the default Shopify gift card notification templates:
Update default Shopify "new gift card" email notification template
1. Locate the gift card template in Shopify admin dashboard by navigating to
Settings > Notifications > Customer Notifications > Gift Cards > New gift card
2. Click "Edit code":
3. We will be updating the Email Body (HTML) value so we recommend taking a back-up. Copy the text and save it to a text file in case you need to revert.
4. Next we will change the email template so the user needs to "Activate their gift card" to view the code. This will send the user to Wrapped so the code can be viewed (and import the gift card).
To do this, find and remove references {{ gift_card.code | format_code }}. Change button text to "Activate gift card" and any link and button URLs to:
