Overview
Activity (Experience) Gift Certificates offer a way for your guests to gift a specific experience that is flexible for the end recipient. This type of gift certificate is issued for a specific tour or service and a specific number of guests. When redeemed, the gift certificate will cover the full cost of those guests. This type of gift certificate cannot be redeemed for cash and cannot be applied to another tour or service.
| Currently, Activity Gift Certificates are only available for Standard, Interval or Ticket-type activities. In addition, it's important to note that they do not work with Activity Pricing Options. |

Gift Certificate Pricing Business Rules
Our Activity-Specific Gift Certificates will cover the cost of however many passengers you have selected on a given activity. It's important to understand the business rules relating to the way the pricing works:
- Only Tours with a Price Code can be sold as Activity Gift Certificates, pricing options cannot be added to gift certificates at this time.
- If there is a price on the current date, the Gift Certificate will use that, or the next upcoming price
- If there are fluctuating prices throughout a single day (ie - Interval Activity), the gift certificate will select the peak price.
