How to make free printable gift certificates feel real
A vague coupon becomes a guilt token. We want the opposite.
- Add a date window, like “redeem by March 1”
- Add the exact time limit, like “one hour”
- Add how to schedule it, like “text me and we pick a day”
Also, cardstock makes everything look expensive.
