Giftery.me helps users build functional gift wish lists for themselves or others. The user begins by creating a list with a name, event type and date. Next, the user can select from approximately three million products listed on Giftery. The user can also add other items if they are not found within the site’s database. After completing the wish list, the user can share it with friends, family, coworkers and anyone else that needs to see it. Lists can also be posted to Facebook. Users can see the list and use it to choose presents the recipient wants and needs. The website also lets users create gift giving reminders so they never forget an important event or date. A search tool is available for users who are looking for an existing wish list on Giftery.
Giftery was created in 2011. The application was a response to the existing gift recommendation websites that were often far off the mark. Users can create a gift list that meets their needs and wants and share it easily on the web. The application has received a positive response, especially for its extra features. Users can not only share gift wish lists, they can also create reminders so they never forget an important gift giving occasion.
Giftery is appealing to users for a few reasons. The application isn’t limited to birthday gifts. Users can create wish lists for any special occasion, including weddings, graduations, retirements and housewarming events. The application streamlines the entire wish list process. User can create their list, share it and add it to their social networking profile in a few clicks. Giftery includes reminders and an enormous database of products so users can easily find what they want and stay prepared when it is time to buy a present for someone special.
The Giftery website invites users with a cheerful color scheme and clutter free design. There are no obnoxious advertisements (which may come as a surprise, considering the site’s purpose). Instead, users can browse products at their leisure or create wish lists without feeling like the site is constantly trying to convince them to spend money. Even a novice computer user can quickly learn the Giftery interface and start building a wish list.
New users can join Giftery by clicking the green “Register” link in the upper, right hand corner of the page. The next page gives the user two options to create an account. Two buttons are available for users who prefer to sign up with an existing Facebook account. Others can enter a username, email address and password. After filling out and submitting the form, the user is logged in and can begin building wish lists or browsing products.
Charging a fee for a service like that offered by Giftery would be counterproductive. The website may be convenient, but it does not supply a service that would justify a subscription fee. The application is priced just right at free. Anyone can create an account and build wish lists at no cost. The only expense comes when someone decides to purchase an item on the user’s wish list. This is paid to the retailer selling the product. Giftery does not charge a fee for its services.
Giftery.me is a fun application for anyone who enjoys giving and getting gifts. Users who plan on celebrating a big event can get the most use out of Giftery by setting up a wish list for weddings, graduations, new babies, birthdays and any other important occasion. Wish lists can be shared easily through Facebook or on the Giftery site so family and friends can access gift lists and find items to buy.
