Design & Translations¶

The Design & Translations page lets you customize the text labels used in GiftCard Hero's storefront components — the gift card page, delivery emails, and the balance check widget.

Go to eGift Cards → Translations (click the Translations button on the Gift Cards page).

Design and translations

Language selection¶

Use the language dropdown to select the language you want to configure. The list contains 80+ languages.

When a customer visits your store, GiftCard Hero uses the Shopify locale associated with their session to pick the right translation. If no translation exists for their locale, the default English text is shown.

Language selection dropdown

Translation fields¶

After selecting a language, a set of editable text fields appears. Each field corresponds to a label, message, or button shown in the gift card UI. Fill in the translated text for each field you want to customize.

What you can translate includes:

Gift card page heading and description text
Button labels (e.g., "Send gift card", "Check balance")
Remaining balance label
Expiry date label
Email subjects and body text fragments
Error messages (invalid code, card expired, etc.)
Confirmation and success messages

Saving¶

Click Save to apply your changes. Click Discard to revert any unsaved edits.

Changes take effect immediately for new sessions. Customers already on the page may need to refresh to see updated text.

Card design images¶

Card design images — the visual appearance of the gift card in emails and on the storefront — are managed on the main eGift Cards page, not here. On that page you can:

Select from built-in design thumbnails
Upload a custom design image

The Design & Translations page handles language/text customization only.
