Set up child money credit, credit and vouchers

In Shoporama, you can create customers with a credit amount - this can be child money credit, gift cards, vouchers or other forms of prepaid credit. Here we'll walk you through how the system works.

How credit works

A customer with credit can use their credit amount to pay in full or in part for orders in your shop. The credit is registered on the customer's profile and is automatically deducted at checkout.

Create a customer with credit

1. Go to Customers in admin
2. Create a new customer or edit an existing one
3. Enter the credit amount in the relevant field
4. Click Save

Types of credit

You can use the credit feature for different purposes:

• Child money credit - credit that is earmarked for child-related products
• Gift card - the customer buys a gift card and the recipient gets the credit
• Voucher - compensation to customers for returns or complaints
• Corporate account - credit for business customers who buy on an ongoing basis

Using credit at checkout

When a customer with credit logs in and shops, the credit amount will automatically appear as a payment option at checkout. The customer can choose to use all or part of their credit.

Implementation in your theme

To display credit amounts in your theme (e.g. in checkout), your developer needs to add the relevant Smarty code. Your theme should check if the customer has credit and show the option to use it.
