Create printable vouchers and gift cards
You can easily create printable templates of your vouchers/gift cards, which later can be used in physical stores or promotional events. In this guide, you'll see how to create a printable fixed-code voucher in a reusable template.
Contents
Let's create a template of a voucher with a 20% discount and a QR code that you can print and share hand-to-hand with your customers.
What do you need to start:
- Voucherify account,
- Free version of Canva account, which you can create here, or Mailchimp account.
There are two ways you can do it with a Voucherify account:
- Using Voucherify code and free Canva editor (recommended);
- Using the Voucherify code and your Mailchimp account (you can also create a new Mailchimp account for free if you prefer to use their templates instead of Canva).
Voucherify + Canva
Canva enables you to design a coupon template. First, we will create a discount code in Voucherify and then put it on the Canva template.
Step 1: Create a fixed (standalone) code
Unique vs. fixed codes
You can also use this workflow to create printable unique code vouchers but keep in mind it would require more manual work and may not scale. If you're worried about coupon misuse or tracking, remember that you can equip fixed codes with the same validation rules that unique codes (for example, limit redemptions per customer) and Voucherify, likewise, will track every redemption with its details.
Open the Campaign Manager and create a new Discount coupon.
Choose a standalone code, type the code, and define the redemption limit.
Go through each stage of the manager to set up a discount and code details. In the last stage, confirm the code set up with Save.

Step 2: Save the QR code
Save a QR code image to put on our printable template.
Step 3: Create a voucher template
Log into your Canva account and design a template.
To add a QR code, drag the saved image with the code into the editor.
When the template is ready, download the file in the chosen format (PDF print recommended).
Confirm the file download, and that's it! Your fixed-code voucher is ready to print and share with your customers.
Voucherify + Mailchimp
If you already use Mailchimp, you can log into your account to create printable templates with Voucherify promo codes.
What do you need to start:
- Voucherify account,
- your Mailchimp account, which you can also create for free here.
Step 1: Create and download standalone code
Repeat the process of standalone code creation and download your QR code.
Step 2: Create a voucher template
Firstly, log into your free Mailchimp account (you can skip all optional account settings) and click on Templates.
Choose 'Create Template'.
You can choose from many built-in templates and themes or create your own in HTML.
Just click on the chosen template/theme, and you'll get to the editor.
To put a QR code into the template, import the QR code from your computer to the template.
When the template is ready, you can see its preview.
Click on 'Save and Exit', add the name of the template, and confirm with Save.
Step 4: Export voucher
Now, export the template as HTML.
Step 5: Print vouchers
When you open a downloaded HTML file, you'll see a ready-to-print voucher with a QR code. 
That's it! If you want to modify the template or change/add a QR or barcode, you can open the HTML file in any code/HTML editor and make changes directly on your computer.
Redemptions of printable codes
Your customers can redeem their codes, and Voucherify will note each redemption in your dashboard. The easiest way to serve redemptions is by scanning QR codes via the Voucherify mobile app:
