Is there a way to check the balance of a customer's e-gift card without running it?

When a customer doesn't bring in their e-gift info, it's frustrating that I haven't found a way to find their balance without running the card through. I just want to be able to click on a "card on file" and see how much money is on it...if any

HI @robinhv23.  Without the card either on file in their customer directory OR the card information available, I know of no way to do this, currently.  And, of course, the problem with gift cards is that when someone buys one they are not the person who will ultimately use it. So initially the card has no customer attached to it.

 

Here is a link to a feature request another seller made on the subject.  You should follow this link and upvote this request.
