The gift voucher is the perfect answer: no shipping, no wrong size, and money in for you straight away. If you run a restaurant, a salon, a spa or a shop, you can sell it online in a few minutes.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:clamp(1.4rem,4vw,1.9rem);line-height:1.25;margin:1.6em 0 .6em;color:#1D3D78\">Why the gift voucher pays off<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:.4em\"><strong>You get paid today<\/strong> for a service you will deliver later, often in quieter months.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:.4em\"><strong>You win new customers<\/strong>: whoever receives the voucher often did not know you.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:.4em\"><strong>You ship nothing<\/strong>: the voucher is a PDF or an e-mail.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:.4em\"><strong>It works until the last minute<\/strong>, even on Christmas Eve.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:clamp(1.4rem,4vw,1.9rem);line-height:1.25;margin:1.6em 0 .6em;color:#1D3D78\">How to sell it with 1pay.ch<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:1.2rem;line-height:1.3;margin:1.3em 0 .4em;color:#1D3D78\">With a payment link<\/h3>\n<p>Create a link for each value (CHF 50.-, CHF 100.-, CHF 150.-) and share it on social media, in your newsletter and on WhatsApp. Customers pay with TWINT or by card.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:1.2rem;line-height:1.3;margin:1.3em 0 .4em;color:#1D3D78\">With a payment page<\/h3>\n<p>If you want a small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1pay.ch\/en\/features\/shop-pages\/\">shop window<\/a>, create a page with the different values and a short description. You do not need a website: the page has its own address, which you can share anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>After payment you send the voucher, for example a PDF with a code and an expiry date, and record it when it is used.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#EEF6F5;border-radius:14px;padding:18px 22px;margin:1.4em 0\">\n<p style=\"font-weight:700;color:#1D3D78;margin:0 0 .3em\">A detail that sells<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0\">Offer an &#8220;experience&#8221; rather than a sum: &#8220;Dinner for two&#8221;, &#8220;Facial and massage&#8221;.
