Please log in for more thread options No, it doesn't. You can't do multi-location vouchers without an Add-in.
Retail Realm has an add-in to enable global vouchers and there may be
others out there as well. Personally, I think a gift card solution run
through an external provider like Mercury Payments or GiveX is a better
solution.
