HOW DO I INTERPRET THIS REPORT?
Interpretation Summary |
This report shows the allocations of gift card liability over time, organized by store of activation (where the card was sold). All liability values are net stored value (or stored value minus discount, where applicable). The agingcalculations depend on the non-expiring card activity selected while running the report. If you choose “Sale” as the non-expiring card activity, even if a card is reloaded its liability will appear in the month in which it was sold. If you choose “Sale and Reload” the liability will appear in the month in which the card was last reloaded (or sold). If you choose “Guest Activity”, the liability will appear in the month in which the card last had activity, including sales, redemptions and reloads (but not including balance inquiries). It is important to note that if this report is run back in time (not for the current month), ONLY the “Sale” non-expiring card activity designation will return accurate data. “Sale and Reload” and “Guest Activity” should only be used when running this report for the current month. If a merchant has been a customer of Paytronix for less than 5 years, and did not migrate a gift card program over when engaging Paytronix, these columns will show as zero values. The report will always show columns up to 60+ months as headings, regardless of activity. |
