Gift cards for stays, bought at two in the morning.

A stay is a gift people buy for milestone birthdays, weddings and anniversaries, and rarely within reception's opening hours. Your shop takes the order while reception sleeps, and the payment is on the hotel's Stripe account when reception opens in the morning.

Recognise it?

Situations you know

This is the day-to-day Kuvert has to handle.

The gift is for a wedding on Saturday
The buyer is sitting there on Thursday evening, short of time. They choose the amount, write a message to the bride and groom and choose delivery on Saturday morning. No posting and no risk of it not arriving.
The card should cover more than the room
The gift card is a balance and not a particular package. The recipient can use it on the room, in the restaurant or in the spa, and the amount is deducted wherever it is used.
The amounts are high
A stay easily costs a couple of thousand kroner. The card is not a piece of paper that can go missing in a house move. It is a code with a balance, and you can send it again from the dashboard.
The company buys for the whole department
The company buys the cards itself in your shop: they paste in the list of names and email addresses, pay once, and each employee gets their own card. The company name and CVR are on the receipt. If they would rather pay by invoice, you issue the cards yourself from the dashboard.

What matters most

What matters most for hotels

Five languages on your site
Danish, English, Norwegian, Swedish and German at no extra cost. The German guest buying a stay for their in-laws reads your site in German.
Scheduled delivery
The card lands on the day itself and not three weeks before, so the surprise holds.
Funds straight to the hotel
The payment is on the hotel's own Stripe account the moment it is bought, and goes to the bank according to the payout schedule you choose. Kuvert only deducts its fees and never holds the amount in between.
Off-season campaigns
Run «spend 2,000, get 2,400» in November to pull revenue into the quiet months.
Roles for reception
Reception redeems. The manager sets up products and prices, the bookkeeper sees the figures, and only the owner issues cards and touches the money.
Table booking for the restaurant
If the hotel has a restaurant, guests book their table on the hotel's own page and get one that fits. It is free for up to 25 bookings a month.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can we sell gift cards for a particular package rather than an amount?

You create the products you want to sell and name them yourself. «Stay for two with breakfast» can be sold at a fixed price. The card has a balance, so the recipient can use it on the package or on something else you offer.

How long is the card valid for?

At least 36 months, which is the three years the law assumes when nothing else has been agreed. You can set validity longer on your own products, but never shorter.

Can the guest have a remaining balance paid out?

Yes. The customer has the right to have a remaining balance paid out in cash, during the validity period and for a year after it. Kuvert handles it as its own posting type, so the payout can be told apart from a normal redemption in your accounts.

Do we have to use a particular booking system?

No. If you have a booking system you are happy with, Kuvert sits alongside it: an event with a fixed number of seats you sell as tickets, and the events can be sent to your own system with webhooks. If you would rather keep it all in one place, Kuvert has its own table booking as an add-on. It is free for up to 25 bookings a month, and your bookings from resOS, DinnerBooking or easyTable can come with you.
