# How to Delete Gift Card Pools

Over time, you may end up with gift card pools you no longer need — test pools, expired campaigns, or pools created by mistake. Maestra lets you remove these pools to keep your loyalty workspace tidy.

<Note>
  You can only delete a gift card pool that has no cards associated with it. If the pool still contains gift cards, remove the cards first, then delete the pool.
</Note>

## Delete a gift card pool

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the gift card pools section">
    In Maestra, go to **Campaigns → Loyalty → Gift card pools**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find the pool you want to delete">
    Locate the pool in the list. Open the additional actions menu next to it and select **Delete**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the deletion">
    Once the pool is removed, you'll see a notification confirming that the deletion was processed successfully.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Deletion is permanent. Make sure the pool is no longer referenced by any active campaigns or workflows before you remove it.
</Warning>

## Before you delete a pool

If the pool still contains gift cards, you won't be able to delete it. You have two options:

* **Remove the cards first.** See the guide on deleting individual gift cards, then return here to remove the empty pool.
* **Keep the pool.** If the cards are still in use, leave the pool in place.

Once the pool is empty, repeat the steps above to delete it.
