How it sells itself

Giftship is the all-in-one gifting platform on Shopify. Add dozens of blocks such as gift notes, gift wrap, date pickers, upsells, and custom fields to product pages, cart page, drawer cart or checkout (Shopify Plus). All blocks can be displayed dynamically. Ship to multiple recipients from your storefront or dashboard for bulk gifting. Build gift boxes and bundles with a step-by-step box builder.

HBN: Gift Wrap lets shoppers choose merchant-configured wrapping and packaging on product pages. Add images and descriptions, collect a personal message with each selection, and let shoppers choose how many items to wrap. Selected wrapping becomes an associated cart line, so pricing, inventory, checkout, and order details stay connected.
