Gift cards

Gift cards work like cash and can be used to buy anything from the store that issued them. They come with a set value, as they are purchased upfront. When buying a gift card from a store that has items with only one VAT rate, like 25%, VAT is included in the purchase price of the card. For stores with multiple VAT rates, VAT is calculated when the gift card is used, not at the time of its purchase. In Ledyer Checkout, the use of a gift card is recorded as a separate line in the order, see examples:
