Frequently asked questions

What should a gift certificate include?

The business name and logo, who it is for and from, the amount or service, a unique certificate number, the expiry date (check your state's rules — many US states require at least 5 years), and how to redeem it.

How do I print 3 gift certificates on one page?

Choose the 8.5 × 3.5 inch Gift certificate size, download the PDF and print it 3 times per sheet using your printer's 'Multiple pages per sheet' option — or print each one on pre-perforated gift certificate paper.

What size is a gift certificate?

Most certificates are printed on US Letter (11 × 8.5 inches) in landscape. A4 landscape (297 × 210 mm) is the standard outside the US. You can also choose portrait, a 8.5 × 3.5 inch gift certificate, a 7 × 5 card, or type any custom size — the PDF page is made at exactly that size.

What paper should I print certificates on?

Use 65–110 lb card stock or parchment paper for a premium feel. In your print dialog choose 'Actual size' (100%) and the highest quality setting. Most home inkjet and laser printers handle 65–80 lb card stock.

Is this gift certificate free?

Yes — 100% free with no sign-up, no watermark and no limits. Edit in your browser and download as many PDFs or PNGs as you need.

Can I add my logo and a signature?

Yes. Upload your logo (PNG with a transparent background looks best) and fill in up to two signature names and titles. Sign by hand after printing, or print and scan a signature.
