At this point, Okuru is not built for businesses to create in house gift cards for complimentary distribution. Gift cards created by our Okuru Partners are designed to be sold on the Okuru Consumer App. As a workaround, the Okuru Partner could create and purchase their own gift cards for gifting. But they will have to abide by Australian Consumer Law regulations of having a 3 year validity period for each gift card.

The Okuru Partner Program is a versatile platform designed to enhance the retail experience for both Customers and Partners.
