Gift card operations your agent handles automatically

From balance checks to transaction reports, your AI agent manages the entire gift card lifecycle through Gift Up!'s API without routing customers to a human agent.

List Gift Cards

Customer asks 'What gift cards do I have?' Your AI agent queries Gift Up! by their email address, retrieves all associated gift cards with balances, statuses, and expiry dates, and presents a clear summary. No dashboard login needed.

Browse Available Items

Customer wants to buy a gift card and asks about options. Your agent calls Gift Up!'s list items endpoint, retrieves available gift card denominations and experiences, and presents the catalog. The customer picks their gift without navigating your website.

Check Transaction History

Customer asks 'When was my gift card last used?' Your agent queries Gift Up!'s transaction report with their gift card code, filters by event type, and returns a chronological history of purchases, redemptions, and credit additions.

Verify Checkout Settings

Your operations team needs to confirm current gift card checkout configuration. Your agent retrieves Gift Up!'s checkout settings including payment methods, branding options, and delivery rules. Configuration audits happen through conversation, not dashboard navigation.

List Store Locations

Customer asks 'Where can I redeem my gift card?' Your agent fetches all locations from Gift Up!, returns the full list of physical stores or service points, and helps the customer find the nearest redemption option.

Register Webhooks

Your integration team needs real-time notifications for gift card events. Your agent subscribes to Gift Up! webhooks for order creation, card redemption, and card updates. Event-driven automation configured through a simple conversation.

Use Cases

Gift card inquiries, handled conversationally

See how businesses eliminate repetitive gift card support tickets by letting AI agents access Gift Up! data and respond to customer questions in real time.

Balance Inquiries That Never Sleep

A gift card holder messages at 10 PM asking 'How much is left on my gift card?' Your AI Agent asks for their email or gift card code, queries Gift Up! for matching cards, and returns the remaining balance with the expiration date. The customer plans their next purchase immediately. Your support team finds zero balance-check tickets the next morning.

Gift Card Shopping Through Conversation

Someone wants to buy a gift card for a friend's birthday but is unsure about options. Your AI Agent pulls the full Gift Up! item catalog, presents available denominations and experience packages, and guides the buyer to the right choice. Instead of browsing a gift card page, the customer makes a decision through a guided chat that feels like talking to a knowledgeable sales associate.

Multi-Location Redemption Guidance

A customer with a gift card asks 'Which of your locations accept this?' Your AI Agent retrieves the location list from Gift Up!, cross-references with the gift card's item group restrictions if any, and tells the customer exactly where they can redeem. For businesses with multiple branches or service points, this eliminates confusion and prevents customers from showing up at the wrong location.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent look up a customer's gift card in Gift Up!?

The agent queries Gift Up!'s list gift cards endpoint, filtering by purchaser email, recipient email, gift card code, or order ID. When the customer provides any of these identifiers, the agent retrieves matching cards with current balance, status, and expiry date. Multiple filter options mean customers can find their card regardless of what information they have.

Can the agent check if a gift card code is still valid before redemption?

Yes. The agent lists gift cards filtered by the code and checks the status field. Active cards with remaining balance are confirmed as valid. Expired, voided, or fully redeemed cards are flagged with appropriate messaging. The customer knows before they try to use it at checkout.

Does the agent have access to transaction history for individual gift cards?

Yes. The list report transactions endpoint accepts a gift card code filter and returns all events including OrderPlaced, GiftCardCreated, CreditAdded, Redeemed, Expired, Voided, and Reactivated. Your agent can present a full activity timeline for any gift card.

What Gift Up! credentials does Tars need?

Tars needs your Gift Up! API key, available from your Gift Up! dashboard under API settings. This single key provides access to all Gift Up! API endpoints including gift cards, items, locations, transactions, and webhooks. The API is free to use regardless of your Gift Up! plan.

Can the AI agent distinguish between test mode and live gift cards?

Yes. Gift Up!'s API supports a test mode header. Your agent can be configured to use test mode during development and staging, then switch to live mode for production. Test transactions stay separate from real customer data, preventing confusion during setup.

Does Tars store gift card balances or codes from Gift Up!?

Tars queries Gift Up! in real time during conversations. Gift card codes, balances, and transaction data are used only within the active session to answer the customer's question. Tars does not maintain a separate database of your gift card inventory or customer codes.

How is this different from Gift Up!'s own customer-facing widget?

Gift Up!'s widget is a self-service balance checker embedded on your site. Tars adds conversational intelligence, letting customers ask natural questions like 'Do I have any gift cards?' or 'Where can I use this card?' The agent handles complex queries, multi-step lookups, and works across WhatsApp and SMS where widgets cannot.

Can the agent handle gift card inquiries that span multiple item groups?

Yes. The agent can list items filtered by group ID and list all item groups. When a customer asks about redemption options, the agent checks which item groups apply to their specific gift card and presents only relevant choices. Restrictions and categories are respected automatically.
