How to add to gift card when card isn't present?

[ReverieRoasters]

 Is it possible to load additional funds onto an existing gift card  if the car is not present?  For example, if I have a little customer that I wish to add funds to a gift card  without them knowing, am I able to load  additional funds on to it without having them come in and swipe the card?

I don't believe that is possible.

Welcome to the Seller Community @ReverieRoasters, and welcome back @jjgard!

It is possible to load a gift card without the card but you will need the gift card number instead. This is a 16-digit number that's on the back of gift card.

You can manually enter the gift card number to load a gift card, rather than swiping the card through the reader/Square Stand. 

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!
