Background
All gift cards must be associated with a Gift Card Type, which controls settings and options for gift card behavior. One of the settings is the "Sold As" Product, which determines the product in your store that will represent the gift card sales. Depending on settings of the Gift Card Type, specific configuration should be used for this "Sold As Product".

When a Gift Card Type is configured with the option [Email Address Required] enabled, or if the Pricing Behavior is set to "Customer enters the initial value of the card", the customer will have to enter those values during purchase of the card. The only way for a customer to enter the values is on the Product Detail Page; therefore, in these configurations, the product option Order from Detail Page Only should be enabled, preventing customers from attempting to add the gift card to the card via the Product List Page.
