Create voucher product

Permalink Create product

A new product type “Voucher” is available for the vouchers under “Products” when creating the product. Select the “Voucher” type and you will now see two new tabs “Voucher Settings” and “Voucher Template” in which you can configure the product.

Note on the taxation of vouchers:
Products of this type automatically receive the tax status “None”, as there is no immediate taxation when value vouchers are sold. Taxation only takes place when the voucher is redeemed.
We recommend that you consult a tax consultant in advance to ensure the correct taxation.
