Voucher templates enable your business to send vouchers to customers at previously specified stages of the booking lifecycle, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. For instance, a customer may receive a voucher immediately after booking a tour, as a confirmation, or just before their travel date as a reminder.

Using the Ventrata dashboard, voucher templates can be highly customised to meet your operation's needs. Tailor the voucher design using extensive toolbar options and populate content with re-usable elements thanks to Ventrata printing variables using a format that best aligns with your branding and messaging.

    πŸ“— TIP

    Space in a PDF file is measured in PDF points, where 1 inch = 72 PDF points.

    For instance:

    • an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper ('Letter' size, US) converts to 612 x 792 PDF points

    • an 8.27" x 11.69" piece of paper (A4) converts to 595 x 842 PDF points
