Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMost stores print gift notes on packing slips, email gift cards to the buyer, and key bulk orders in by hand. Giftnote fixes all three. Shoppers add a gift message at product, cart or checkout. It sends by branded SMS or email when the parcel is delivered or ships, so there is nothing to print and it works with any 3PL. Gift cards and store credit go to the recipient.
Go beyond Shopify's built-in gift cards. Sell branded digital gift cards, send bulk gift cards by CSV or customer segment, and pay cashback as store credit. Create custom gift card templates and schedule delivery. Store credit cashback campaigns auto-issue rewards on purchase, with budgets and daily caps. Customers check their gift card balance on a branded page. Works with Klaviyo, Shopify Flow, and POS.
