*How do I sell my voucher codes to customers?*

***

Vouchers can be distributed in several ways:

- Voucher codes can be created in the Backoffice or via the API and downloaded as an Excel file. These codes can then be delivered to the customer either electronically (via email) or printed.
- Vouchers can be **sold** by activating their sale. They can then be added to an order just like any other ticket or product.

## Creating and downloading voucher codes

See [Creating and downloading voucher codes](#)

## Selling vouchers

Vouchers can be sold. After creating a voucher, you can activate the sale by checking the checkbox at the bottom of the configuration screen.

Next, you need to configure several other settings, such as the **price** and **sales period**. Optionally, you can also link a **layout** to the voucher and assign a **category**.

### Examples

**Example 1**: Selling a discount card

We want to sell a discount card that costs €20.00 and grants a reduced rate for a series of events for one year.

- Create a price type voucher.
- Activate the sale by clicking **Add sales**.
- A new form will appear containing information used for selling the voucher.
- Enter the product name and, optionally, a description. Select the product category and layout (if needed). Enter the price (€20.00) and configure the **sales period** and **sales channels** for this product.
- The sales link will appear after you **save** the information.

**Example 2**: Selling a gift card

We want to create a gift card that can be sold both online and in the backoffice, available in €10.00, €20.00, and €50.00 denominations. The gift card can be used to pay for other tickets.

- First, create a **payment voucher** named "Gift Card".
- Activate the sale of the gift card.
- Choose whether you want the customer to enter a **variable** value, or select from **preset** values.
- A new form will appear containing information used for selling the voucher.
- Enter the **product name** and optionally a **description**. Select the **product category** and **ticket layout** (if needed). Enter the description, value, and price for each of the required amounts. Configure the **sales period** and **sales channels** for this product.
- Once the information is saved, a sales link will appear which you can publish on your website.
