From the Continental Contract of Carriage:

Payment Time and Form
a) Compensation will be made by CO on the day and at the place where the failure to provide confirmed reserved space occurs, and if accepted by the Passenger, the Passenger will provide a signed receipt to CO. However, when CO has arranged, for the Passenger’s convenience, alternate means of transportation that departs before the compensation to the Passenger under this provision can be prepared and given to the Passenger, the compensation shall be sent by mail or other means to the Passenger within 24 hours thereafter.
b) CO may offer free or reduced rate air transportation in lieu of monetary compensation due under this Rule, if the value of the transportation credit offered is equal to or greater than the monetary compensation otherwise required and CO informs the Passenger of the amount and that the Passenger may decline the transportation credit.
You should be able to transfer the voucher so long as its electronic.
