How it works

Sell online. Apply it in Cliniko.
No retyping.

VaocherApp sells and delivers the gift voucher, then sets it up in Cliniko for your front desk.

Step 1

Clients buy online

Clients buy branded gift vouchers from your website, or you sell one at reception. The voucher is emailed straight away.

Step 2

A patient in Cliniko

VaocherApp creates a patient in Cliniko for the voucher's recipient, with a note that links back to the order.

Step 3

A billable item, too

With billable items turned on, each voucher is added to Cliniko as a billable item with its code and value.

Step 4

Applied on the invoice

When the client comes in, staff search the voucher code on their invoice and its value comes off the bill.

In Cliniko: vouchers sent by VaocherApp, listed under Settings › Billable items with their codes and values.

On the invoice

Redeem gift vouchers where you already bill

When a client hands over a gift voucher, staff add it to the Cliniko invoice like any other item.

  • Search the voucher code in the invoice's Item field
  • Its value comes off the total as a negative line
  • Worth less than the treatment? The patient pays the rest
  • Worth more? Cliniko keeps the rest as patient credit

Why connect them

Gift vouchers without the workaround

Cliniko doesn't have gift vouchers built in. Its help centre describes a workaround with a product, a letter template and a placeholder patient.

Without the integration

  • Sell each voucher at reception and send a letter as the voucher
  • Record voucher sales against a placeholder patient
  • Find the original invoice by its number to redeem a voucher
  • Raise a second invoice and adjust it down for the treatment

With VaocherApp and Cliniko

  • Clients buy branded vouchers online, any time, and get them by email
  • Each sale creates a patient in Cliniko for you
  • The voucher is a billable item, ready to add to the invoice
  • Leftover value is kept as patient credit in Cliniko

Patient details

Choose what goes into Cliniko

Decide what each new patient's profile includes, and which vouchers reach Cliniko at all.

  • Write an extra note with shortcodes such as the voucher code, expiry date and order link
  • Map checkout fields like birthday, phone and address to the patient's profile
  • Send every product, or only the products and groups you pick
  • Turn on billable items to redeem vouchers on the invoice

Integration outcomes

What Cliniko clinics get

Online gift voucher sales that land in the practice software your team already uses.

No retyping at reception

Each voucher sale creates a patient in Cliniko with their name and email, so nobody types it in.

Redeem on the invoice

Staff search the voucher code in the invoice's Item field, and the value comes off the bill.

Leftover value kept as credit

If a voucher is worth more than the treatment, Cliniko keeps the rest as credit for the patient's next visit.

A link back to the order

The patient's notes can carry the voucher code and a link to the order in VaocherApp.

Bring the details you collect

Map checkout fields such as birthday, phone and address to the patient's Cliniko profile.

Choose which vouchers sync

Send every gift voucher to Cliniko, or only the products and groups you pick.

After the appointment

Keep VaocherApp up to date

The integration works one way, from VaocherApp to Cliniko. Redeeming a voucher in Cliniko doesn't change it in VaocherApp, so mark it redeemed there too.

One at a time

Open the order from the link in the patient's notes and mark the voucher redeemed in VaocherApp.

At the end of the day or week

Run Cliniko's Invoice items export to list the voucher codes used, then mark those vouchers redeemed in VaocherApp.

FAQ

Cliniko gift voucher questions

Does VaocherApp integrate with Cliniko?

Yes. VaocherApp connects to your Cliniko account with a Cliniko API key, and it's listed in Cliniko's connected apps. Each gift voucher sale creates a patient in Cliniko and can add the voucher as a billable item, so staff can apply it on the invoice.

Does Cliniko have gift vouchers built in?

Not officially. Cliniko's help centre describes a workaround using a product, a letter template and a placeholder patient. With VaocherApp, customers buy and receive gift vouchers online, and each sale is sent to Cliniko for you.

How do staff redeem a gift voucher in Cliniko?

When creating the patient's invoice, staff search for the voucher code in the Item field and add it. The voucher shows as a line with a negative amount, so its value comes off the total.

What if the voucher is worth more or less than the treatment?

If the voucher is worth less, the patient pays the difference. If it covers the treatment exactly, there's nothing to pay. If it's worth more, Cliniko keeps the rest as credit on the patient's account for their next visit.

Does redeeming a voucher in Cliniko update VaocherApp?

No. The integration works one way, from VaocherApp to Cliniko. After the invoice, mark the voucher redeemed in VaocherApp too. The patient's notes can link straight to the order, or you can work through Cliniko's Invoice items export at the end of the day or week.

Who becomes the patient in Cliniko?

The voucher's recipient, using their name and email. When the order has no recipient, the patient is the buyer.

What information is sent to Cliniko?

The patient's name and email, plus an extra note you write, which can include the voucher code, expiry date, balance and a link to the order. You can also map checkout custom fields such as birthday, phone and address to the patient's Cliniko profile. Billable items carry the voucher code, the product name and the voucher value.

How do I add vouchers as Cliniko billable items?

Turn on "Create billable item for each purchased voucher" in Settings → Integrations → Cliniko. From then on, each new voucher is also created as a billable item. Without it, VaocherApp creates the patient only.

Which vouchers are sent to Cliniko?

Gift vouchers sold on your website and vouchers you issue from the VaocherApp dashboard, for example when you sell one at reception. You can send every product or only the products and groups you choose. Bonus vouchers from promotions are added as billable items without creating a patient. Only live orders are sent, and vouchers sold before you connect Cliniko aren't sent.

What do I need to connect Cliniko?

A Cliniko user who's allowed to create API keys. Create a key named VaocherApp under My info in Cliniko, then paste it into Settings → Integrations → Cliniko in VaocherApp. Treat the key like a password, and archive it in Cliniko if you ever want to cut off access. Full steps are in the setup guide.

Does it work with Cliniko accounts outside Australia?

Yes. VaocherApp reads your Cliniko region from your API key, so it connects to your account wherever it's hosted.

Is the Cliniko integration included in my plan?

Yes. The Cliniko integration is included in every plan, and you can use it during the 30-day free trial. There's no extra fee.

Does VaocherApp charge commission on gift voucher sales?

VaocherApp uses transparent subscription pricing rather than taking a commission cut of each gift voucher sale. Check the current plan terms on the pricing page.

Ready to sell gift vouchers with Cliniko?

Sell online, send every sale to Cliniko and apply vouchers right on the invoice.

No setup fees. No lock-in contract. No surprise fees.
