Yes, it is possible to sell digital gift cards with the option to apply a discount code on Webflow. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Create a new collection in the Webflow CMS dedicated to gift cards. Each item in this collection will represent a different gift card.
  2. Add fields to the collection like "Title," "Description," "Price," and "Image" to customize each gift card.
  3. Create a new product template page using this collection. This page will serve as the product detail page for each gift card.
  4. Customize the product template page with the relevant fields, images, and design elements.
  5. Add a form to the product template page where users can enter their details and the recipient's details (if applicable) to personalize the gift card.
  6. Set up an Ecommerce integration with a payment provider like Stripe or PayPal to process the payment for the gift cards.
  7. Add a discount code field to the form and write custom code to validate and apply the discount code to the gift card purchase. You can use Webflow's built-in JavaScript capabilities or use third-party code snippets to achieve this functionality.
  8. Once the form is submitted, process the payment using the selected payment provider and trigger an email to send the digital gift card to the recipient.
  9. On the confirmation page, provide the recipient with instructions on how to redeem the gift card.

If you prefer using a third-party service, there are several options available that can integrate with Webflow seamlessly. Some popular choices include Gift Up!, SendOwl, and Shopify Lite. These services provide comprehensive gift card features and can be easily integrated into your Webflow site using embed codes or custom code injection.

In summary, selling digital gift cards with the option to apply a discount code is possible on Webflow. You can either build the functionality directly within Webflow using their CMS and Ecommerce features or use a third-party service for a more comprehensive solution.
