How to Automate Shopify Gift Receipts for Beauty Brands

For beauty and personal care brands, the customer experience is everything. From the luxurious product packaging to the moment of unboxing, every detail is a chance to build an emotional connection. This is especially true when an order is a gift. Think about it: the gift recipient is your next potential loyal customer. Their first interaction with your brand, maybe for an exchange or return, needs to feel inviting and go smoothly.

Manually creating a gift receipt, one that hides prices but keeps your beautiful branding, takes valuable time. Automating Shopify gift receipts with Order Printer Pro is a simple yet powerful way to improve your post-purchase experience, save your team hours, and delight your customers.

This guide shows you how to create and automate branded gift receipts in Shopify using Order Printer Pro, the trusted Shopify receipts and invoices app used by thousands of merchants.

Why Automated Gift Receipts Matter for Shopify Beauty Brands

In the beauty and personal care world, a gift is an invitation for a new customer to discover your brand. It’s a crucial moment, one where presentation, trust, and convenience matter most.

Here’s why automating gift receipts on Shopify goes beyond operational ease:

Benefit for Your Brand The True Impact for Beauty & Personal Care
Superior Customer Experience A sleek, branded Shopify gift receipt makes returns and exchanges easy. Shoppers are far more likely to buy again when returns are simple and stress-free. An automated receipt sets this tone before your support team even steps in.
Protect Brand Integrity

You have full control over the template’s design. With Order Printer Pro, your receipts can reflect your brand’s colors, fonts, and luxury aesthetic, just like your product packaging.

Example: Instead of a plain slip, your receipt mirrors your signature brand colors, like Tiffany Blue or Glossier Pink, and uses a clean, modern layout.

Save Your Team Valuable Time

No more manually editing Shopify receipts or removing prices one by one. Set up a dedicated “Gift Receipt” template once in Order Printer Pro and use it whenever you need it. Your staff can focus on what matters most: your customers.

Ensure a Smooth Exchange The recipient receives all relevant order details (name, variant, order number) for easy exchanges, without ever seeing the original price. This thoughtful transparency helps build trust and encourages repeat sales.

Step-by-Step: How to Create and Automate Shopify Gift Receipts with Order Printer Pro

Order Printer Pro helps Shopify merchants create, customize, and send professional PDF invoices, receipts, and packing slips automatically. Here’s how to set up a gift receipt for your Shopify store:

Step 1: Install and Prepare Order Printer Pro

  1. Install Order Printer Pro from the Shopify App Store.
  2. Go to the app dashboard and open Manage templates.
  3. Duplicate your existing receipt or invoice and rename it to “Gift Receipt (No Prices)”,  this will be your dedicated version for gift orders.

Step 2: Customize Your Shopify Gift Receipt

  • Remove Pricing: Delete all price-related details (subtotal, taxes, shipping, and total).
  • Add Branding Elements: Upload your logo, apply your brand colors, and choose elegant typography. Order Printer Pro templates are fully editable with HTML/Liquid.
  • Include Return Information: Keep key details like:
    • Your Store Name and Contact Info
    • Order Number
    • Product Name and Variant (e.g., Hydrating Night Cream, Scent: Lavender)
    • Your Return/Exchange Policy

Tip: Add a subtle call-to-action on your gift receipts, for example: "Is this your perfect match? Take our Skin Quiz for personalized product recommendations." Personalized experiences build loyalty and re-engagement.

Step 3: Automate Gift Receipt Delivery

While Shopify doesn’t have a built-in “gift receipt” trigger, you can automate this process using tags or notes in Order Printer Pro.

  1. Use a tag like gift-order or “Gift Receipt” in the order note field.
  2. In your app automation settings, set rules so that:
    • The buyer receives the invoice with prices via email.
    • The fulfillment team prints or includes the Gift Receipt (No Prices) for the recipient.
  3. Example: If your customer selects a “Gift Shipping (No Invoice)” option at checkout, Order Printer Pro can automatically trigger the correct template. This ensures accuracy during high-volume gifting seasons.

Step 4: Communicate and Train Your Team

  • Inform Customers: Add a note at checkout like “Add ‘Gift Receipt’ in the notes to receive a version without prices.”
  • Train Fulfillment: Ensure staff knows to include the correct document for gift-tagged orders. This keeps packaging and presentation consistent.
