Gift and gift card purchases

Target Audience: Administrators Developers

Release version: 4.6.0

Introduction

Starting from version 4.6.0, four new toggles are available when creating and editing packages and campaigns in PAP. These toggles will determine how the package/campaign at hand should act when it comes to gift/gift card purchases. Note that some of the toggles have certain conditions that must be met in order to be used.

What does these toggles do

The selections are available through the API:s exposing packages and campaigns and should be used for determining how the packages and campaigns are sold in external implementations of purchases. These selections will not currently affect the PPF.
