The EBS Suite — Everything After the Sale
EBS Gift Cards
$25, $50, and $100 cards with real balances, checked online, redeemed at the counter — liability the owner can see.
Part of the EBS Suite — fourteen tools for everything after the sale, run from one HQ.
The Problem
Gift Cards You Can't See Are Money You Can't Count.
A drawer of plastic cards and a spreadsheet is how most shops track gift cards — until the spreadsheet and the drawer disagree, usually at month-end, in front of a customer.
Every card you sell is money you owe. If you can't see the outstanding total, you're guessing at a liability.
EBS Gift Cards keeps every balance in the open: checked online by the customer, redeemed at your counter, and totaled in HQ to the cent.
How It Works
Sold at the Counter. Seen in HQ.
Step 1
The Card Sells
$25, $50, and $100 cards, sold at your counter or online — the balance is real from the first minute, not written on the back in marker.
Step 2
The Customer Checks the Balance
Card holders check their balance online — no call to the shop, no guessing at the register.
Step 3
You Watch the Liability
Outstanding liability, issued and redeemed, and the proof the book ties out — in HQ, to the cent.
What It Does
Stored Value, Kept to the Cent.
Real Balances
$25, $50, and $100 cards with real balances — issued, held, and redeemed against one ledger.
Online Balance Check
Customers check what a card holds online, before they come in.
Redeemed at the Counter
Cards redeem at your counter against the live balance — settled on completed orders.
Liability in the Open
What you owe card holders, on the dashboard: outstanding, issued this month, redeemed this month.
The Proof
Two independent reads of the same book — the stored balances added up, and every card's history replayed event by event — must agree, or the screen says so.
Needs Attention
Stale checkout holds and cards untouched for a year surface on their own — nothing sits quiet.
Who It's For
