Gift card software that fits your systems.
gurado runs in the cloud in German data centers and connects to your website, online shop and POS system through ready-made integrations. For everything else, there's a documented API.
What IT needs to deliver for a gift card system
A gift card system touches several systems at once: sales on the website, payment processing, redemption at checkout and handover to accounting. Each of these needs a clean integration.
gurado brings these integrations with it. The gift card shop fits into your existing website, and integrations and plugins connect CMS, e-commerce platforms and POS systems. Your team builds custom integrations via the documented API. We handle operation, updates and backups.

What IT managers want to know first
Four questions that come up in almost every integration project – and how gurado answers them.
"Yet another system for us to run and maintain."
No. gurado is a cloud solution with nothing to install locally. Backups run continuously, new features are available right away, and your team can access the system from any computer with internet access.
"Connecting our POS system will be a whole project."
There are ready-made integrations for common POS systems, including Schultes, Bizerba, Matrix, Novacom, ETRON and TCPOS. Nothing changes in your checkout workflow. See all integrations.
"Where is the data stored, and how secure is it?"
All data is stored in the cloud on servers in Germany and hosted to German security standards. Redundant data centers ensure high availability, and all connections are SSL-encrypted.
"Our setup doesn't fit any standard plugin."
Then use the REST API. The developer documentation includes usage and integration examples. For larger projects, our consultants support you from planning to go-live.
