# Square Gift Cards
### Overview
Customers can redeem Square Gift Cards by going to the More tab of the app and clicking on Redeem Gift Card.
On the next page, enter in the 16-digit code received in the Square email received by the Gift Card recipient.
Once redeemed, the Gift Card will automatically be converted to Credits.
{% hint style="warning" %}
The email that Square sends out includes a QR code and barcode, which are not relevant. ONLY THE 16-DIGIT code is necessary to redeem the gift card. You may be asked about this by Customers. Guide the Customer. We are speaking to Square about this in an attempt to reach a UI resolution on their email sent to the Customer.
