You will be shown every action that has taken place on the card, including creation, loyalty and gift balances used, and manual adjustments.

5. Tap **Adjust Lavu Card** on the second row.

7. You will then be shown the cards current gift card and loyalty balance (if any). In the boxes below, you can type a positive or negative number (with a hyphen) to adjust the balance.
8. At this time you can also enter an expiration date using a date picker (this is uncommon).

![cp\_manage\_gift5](https://support.lavu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/cp_manage_gift5.jpeg?width=688&height=516&name=cp_manage_gift5.jpeg)  
Note that you are not able to see card histories from the POS. That functionality is exclusive to the Control Panel for restaurant managers.

**Note:** You have the ability to create new gift and loyalty cards from either of these screens. When you enter a swipe a card that has not yet been entered, you will be given the option to Register the new card.  
![cp\_manage\_gift6](https://support.lavu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/cp_manage_gift6.jpeg?width=688&height=531&name=cp_manage_gift6.jpeg)

**Important Note:**

 

The magtek iDynamo and Verifone terminals may be used to issue and deactivate the Lavu Gift cards. In the magtek iDynamo and the Verifone, the process for issuing, redeeming, checking balances, and deactivating Lavu Gift cards is the same. All these operations can be performed when the Verifone and magtek iDynamo terminals are integrated with the Lavu application.
