thanks Haydie (as always)
I guess that is a work around.
In NZ, you are still supposed to charge tax on gift vouchers, as it is a sale. Doing this would mean I would be breaking the law. But not doing it would mean that the cusomter would pay tax twice.

Ok, I have checked with the accountant and he has confirmed that vouchers can be sold as tax exempt for practical reasons in NZ. For those of you that are interested, you can refer to this website.

That means I can issue the voucher as Tax exempt as suggest by Haydie. Thanks Hadie
Does anyone know how I can turn off invoicing in NOP Commerce, as the invoice requires some modification to be tax compliant in NZ and I thought I would just issue it manually anyway.

Hi, No.8, If the total amount of the products in the cart is less than the value of the gift card, the remainder of the gift card amount will be 'reserved'.
How does this work? I tried to add a small amount of value product into card, using gift card and I can see the remaining amount in gift card, but I entered checkoutpayment.aspx page, there is only a PayPal Express button (as usual), but when I click it, it gave me an error but the total is 0 so PayPal throws out an exception. However, I don't think I should see this PayPal button as the total is 0, it should automatically process the order and just calculate the remaining for the gift card, isn't it?
Please help, much appreciated! Thanks.
