# Gift Certificates

Create gift card certificates for shoppers to use on your storefront. Shoppers can purchase a gift certificate and email it to a recipient of their choice, redeem a gift certificate as a method of payment, and check a gift certificate balance. Create gift cards, report on gift certificate statistics, and import and export gift certificates. You can also process gift cards programmatically. See B2C Commerce API documentation for more information.

- **[Enable Gift Certificate Functionality in Your Storefront](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_enabling_gift_certificate_functionality.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    The SiteGenesis application comes with embedded gift certificate functionality for B2C Commerce, but you can also implement it on an existing application.
- **[Create a Gift Certificate](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_creating_gift_certificates.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Create an individual gift certificate in Business Manager and set its value and status. Because you can't stage gift certificates, create and manage them in your Production environment. After a certificate is created, its value is fixed and can only be redeemed.
- **[Mask a Gift Certificate Code](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_masking_of_gift_certificate_codes.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    In B2C Commerce, a gift certificate code is sensitive data, so make sure that only the recipient has access to the code throughout the creation and redemption process.
