It can be both.
While Gift Vouchers are delivered electronically by email, the Gift Voucher itself, is attached as an image file.
This file can then be printed onto paper/card via any standard printer – similar to if you were printing a photograph.
As far as we’re concerned, yes they are – a prepaid credit normally given to one person from another as a gift.
A notable difference however, between our Gift Vouchers and others is the fact that ours can be personalized specifically to the Recipient and include a personal note from the sender.
This makes them a highly personal gift that shows thought and consideration.
At this point in time, we don’t offer Gift Vouchers by postal mail.
We will however, consider custom order requests for a modest additional charge.
Contact us if this is something you’re interested in.
We normally email Gift Vouchers directly to the Purchaser, however, it is possible for us to email them directly to the Recipient if we are requested to do so, but we do not recommend this option.
The reason for this is that since our Gift Vouchers are transmitted electronically – by email – we cannot guarantee the Recipient will receive it directly, without it first being directed to their spam folder – along with the potential risk of them missing it altogether.
For this reason, we recommend Gift Vouchers are given to the Recipient by the original Purchaser, who has the choice to forward it by email, or print it out and give it to them directly.
Please note: Many email client programs will automatically redirect email from those senders not already in an email Receiver’s Safe Senders List, to their spam folder. If you are an existing contact of the Receiver, there is a much greater likelihood that your email will be received directly, instead of being directed to the spam folder.
We aim to process all Gift Voucher orders within 48 hrs, though there are periods when this may not be possible.
If processing time is important to you, contact us beforehand, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your requirements.
Of course! it’s the personal touch that makes our Gift Vouchers great gifts.
As part of the ordering process, there is a short form where you can provide all necessary details
At this point in time to reduce the risk of fraudulent usage, we only offer non-transferable, personalized Gift Vouchers
If you wish to print a HEXAPODA Gift Voucher or Greeting card, you can to do so using any standard printer.
For best results, we recommend printing at full size, in color, on letter-sized (8-1/2″ x 11″), smooth card stock.
After printing the Gift Voucher, you will notice a thin border around it that can be used as a guide for trimming. Once trimmed, the Gift Voucher will fit inside a HEXAPODA Greeting Card.
Printing the HEXAPODA Greeting Card is similar to printing the Gift Voucher. However, in addition to border lines which provide a guide for trimming, it also includes a fold line, which when folded to to keep the printed images on the outside, creates a blank Greeting card into which the Gift Voucher will fit.
The Greeting card and Gift Voucher will then fit into any standard 5-1/4″ x 7-1/4″ A7 envelope*
Please Note: The Recipient does not need to have a physical Gift Voucher to redeem it, just the information that is included at the bottom of the Voucher itself, so please make sure that this information is included in the printed copy.
