The plugin does exactly what it promises. I have only one functionality which I miss a lot. The opportunity to customize this pdf. A field where I can put css or some simple style modifications would be super. For example we wanted the coupon in the pdf to be in a shadowed box, wanted to change the background of the code area and also we wanted to insert an image instead of the big price text area. In a future update maybe consider a style modification feature. Thank you! Great plugin!

attention to design. Generic blah coupon is generated. Plus the new version has an annoying error that I have reported in the plugin support forum.

This plugin does exactly what the developer says it should. It makes it easy to sell a gift card or coupon from your wooCommerce shop, either as a stand alone item or for a specific product. My personal disappointment is that it doesn’t generate a barcode so that bricks-and-mortars can easily scan the coupon.
