The dashboard shows gift certificate purchases and redemption metrics. The metrics give you insights about the revenue generated through gift certificate sales revenue, average sales value, the number of redemptions, redemption value, and the number of activations within an amount range. To launch the dashboard, on the Products dashboard select the Gift Certificates tab.
Activations
Activations are the number of gift certificates activated during the time period. With the report, monitor activation history and evaluate activation peaks and valleys. Use the data to improve activation revenue. For example, plan a gift card promotion for a period when activations are historically low.
Gift Certificate Revenue
This report plots the revenue from gift certificate sales. Use this date to track revenue trends and compare revenue to other metrics. For example, Low revenue and high activation rates over the same period indicates a tendency for customers to activate gift certificates with a low value.

Redemptions
This report plots the value of redeemed gift certificates. The value of redeemed gift certificates is useful in a number of assessments.
