If you log in to your Books on Board account, from the My Account page you will have various options, and two on the right will be "Gift Certificates" and "Rewards".

If you click on "Rewards" it should tell you that you have a reward balance of $60 - that's the bonus you got for buying the Gift Certificate.

If you click on "Gift Certificates" there should be a space at the top of the page for you to enter a code, and below that should be a section called Purchased Gift Certificates, where you will see the $60 gift certificate you bought, with the code. If you put the code in the box at the top of the page and click Register! the gift certificate will appear under Registered Gift Certificates.

Now when you buy books, you will have a $60 Gift Certificate balance you can use AND a $60 Reward Balance.

As someone has already mentioned, Books on Board offers various levels of reward dollars with some books. When you use Gift Certificates you will also get the reward for the book added to your reward balance. However when you redeem your Reward Balance you won't earn rewards. So it's best to use the Rewards for books that don't offer much in the way of reward dollars, and the gift certificate balance for books that have high rewards.

Hope that all helps!
