# Gift Card Processing Workflow

## Gift Card Processing Workflow

When processing a transaction (sale or refund) using a gift card, the workflow a terminal operator will use depends on the Secure Payment module they are using.

If you are using Secure Payment's **Gateway** module, the gift card is recognized as soon as the operator swipes the card and the appropriate gift card application is launched (DataCandy or Freebees).

If you are using any other Secure Payment module (**App to App**, **SecurePay**, **SecureTable**, or **Standalone Payment**), the operator (or customer) must indicate that the card being used is a gift card by tapping the **Gift card** button.

If the terminal operator or customer do not tap the **Gift card** button before swiping the card, the terminal displays a screen asking if a gift card is being used.

When you tap the **Gift card** button or answer **Yes** to the gift card question, the Secure Payment application launches the appropriate gift card application (DataCandy or Freebees) to process the sale or refund. When the gift card transaction is complete, the terminal returns to the Secure Payment application.
