can you point me to what you think the best existing solution is? fwiw many local businesses do not have a modern POS, so we need to build something that doesn't rely on integrations.

I googled searched 'egift card for small business owners'. https://giftcardsuite.com/blog/gift-card-suite-faq

Not to sound inconsiderate, but I would suggest writing a blog doing research for people instead of making a tech solution. MVP can use existing tools. You will find that a lot of these small businesses have Square or Toast at their stores. Those are going to use a different service than the one I mentioned above. Its always tempting to build but it could take weeks before you can provide these small businesses with a tech solution and there might not be in the infrastructure to help them use the gift cards.
