# How to Zero Out Gift Card Balances

## This article will explain how to zero out/exhaust a gift cards available balance.

1. To start, begin by logging into the [Teesnap Admin portal,](https://admin.teesnap.com/teesnap-portal/) For reporting purposes, you will need to create an inventory sub-category called "Zero out gift card" allowing you to identify where these gift card sales/zero outs will appear in your reports. To add an inventory sub-category, follow the steps in[this article.](https://support.teesnap.com/how-to-add-inventory-sub-categories?hsLang=en)

2. After adding an inventory sub-category, click **Inventory** on the left-hand side of the page.

2. Click **Products** from the inventory list.

3. Click **Add** at the top of the page. ![Screen Shot 2024-10-09 at 2.40.55 PM](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202024-10-09%20at%202.40.55%20PM.png?width=688&height=251&name=Screen%20Shot%202024-10-09%20at%202.40.55%20PM.png)

4. Create a "Zero Out Gift Card" product at a $0 retail price and add your newly created "Zero Out Gift Card" inventory category. You can also include a small description in the text box at the bottom of the window.

5. Click **Configuration** at the top of the window and be sure to add this product to a display category, in our case we used the display category "Other". Click **Save** in the top right corner before proceeding.

6. After completing the steps above, return to your **Teesnap Application via the iPad** and then navigate to the cart in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. Tap on the "other" tab on the left-hand side of the page to find the "Zero Out Gift Card" product.

7. After adding the product to the cart, tap on the product name to override the price. **IMPORTANT**: At this point, you should input the BALANCE of the gift card you're looking to "Zero Out".  ![IMG_0758](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0758.jpg?width=688&height=503&name=IMG_0758.jpg)

8. Tap the **Override** button in the top right corner (this permission can be turned on/off in the admin portal).

![IMG_0760](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0760.jpg?width=688&height=503&name=IMG_0760.jpg)

10. Input the new price (gift card balance you wish to remove/zero out) then input a reason, in our case, we used "Zero out gift card". Click **Save** to continue.

![IMG_0761](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0761.jpg?width=688&height=500&name=IMG_0761.jpg)

11. Upon returning to the shopping cart, you will see the new price of the Zero Out Gift Card product is $5. (in this case, the gift card we're zeroing out has a $5 balance remaining). Click **Checkout** to continue.![IMG_0763](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0763.jpg?width=688&height=503&name=IMG_0763.jpg)

12. In this case you can select **Checkout as Guest or input yourself** so you have a record for any reporting/golfer questions that come up.

![IMG_0766](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0766.jpg?width=688&height=500&name=IMG_0766.jpg)

14. Input the account number/gift card, after entering the information you will see your gift card code appear along with the current balance remaining on the card. To complete the transaction click **Submit**. 

![IMG_0767](https://support.teesnap.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0767.jpg?width=688&height=503&name=IMG_0767.jpg)
