Automated Gift Card Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun opens Resova, finds gift cards that have not been redeemed and are approaching their expiry date, drafts a personalised reminder email in Gmail for each recipient, and posts the queue to Slack for staff approval before any message is sent.

In short

How do I automatically remind escape room guests to redeem their gift cards before they expire?

WebRun checks Resova every Monday for unredeemed gift cards expiring within 60 days, drafts a personalised reminder email for each recipient in Gmail with their code, expiry date, and a booking link, and posts the queue to Slack for staff approval. Cards expiring within 14 days are flagged as urgent so nothing lapses without a timely nudge.

  • Unredeemed gift cards flagged automatically before they expire
  • Personalised reminders with booking links drafted for each recipient
  • Staff approve all outbound emails before any message reaches a customer

Questions, answered

Will it email gift card holders without staff approving first?

No. WebRun drafts every reminder in Gmail and posts a summary to Slack for review. No email is sent to any recipient until a team member approves the batch, keeping all outbound customer messages under your control.

How far in advance does it flag expiring gift cards?

WebRun flags gift cards expiring within 60 days each Monday and highlights cards expiring within 14 days as urgent, giving staff enough notice to approve and send reminders before the cards lapse.

What if a gift card is redeemed between weekly runs?

WebRun reads the live redemption status from Resova at the start of each run, so any card redeemed since the last check is excluded from the draft queue automatically.
