Set Up Store Credit Permissions and Settings

There are a few related settings and permissions to consider with regard to store credit.

To control which employee users are able to add store credit to an owner's account, navigate to Left-hand Navigation: Reports and More Icon » Groups and enable or disable the Can Add Store Credit permission for the respective user accounts.

Important:  This permission only controls the users' ability to purchase store credit on an owners' account—it does not prevent the ability to use store credit as a payment method or refund to store credit. We recommend enabling this permission for at least one user group in your application.

To indicate if customers' are able to purchase their own store credit from the Customer Portal, navigate to Left-hand Navigation: Admin » Payment and Purchase Options and indicate a preference for the Allow customers store credits setting.

Important:  Regardless of the preference on this setting, customers can only buy store credit from the Customer Portal if your application utilizes Gingr's integrated Credit Card Processing. Please see our article Configure Payment Processing for more information on processing credit cards with Gingr.
