How To Enter Gift Card Prefixes

What Are Gift Card Prefixes?

Oftentimes a set of gift card numbers will each begin with the same long string of numbers. This is known as the prefix. You can set up gift card prefixes, so in the event you need to manually enter a gift card number in Arryved Service, you can save time by tapping one button to enter the prefix. From there, all you need to do is enter the rest of the unique numbers of the gift card.

Prerequisites

To set up your gift card prefixes through your Arryved Portal, you must be a Super Admin.

How It Works

Set Up Your Prefixes In Your Arryved Portal

Head to your Arryved Portal and log in as a Super Admin.

Pro Tip! Press Command + F (for Mac) or Cntrl + F (for PC) and you can search for words on the page.

In the box under the 'Gift Card Prefixes' Preference, type in your prefixes. If you want to enter more than one, separate them with a semicolon.
