Here are the top few things we think are important to check or configure before going live with your gifting program.

Update Gift Card Product & Enable Gifting

  • Is your Givy gift card product active & configured?

  • Have you enabled the App embed on your live theme?

  • If you had another gift card product, have you disabled it?

Customize Gifting Modal

  • Have you loaded the Send as Gift modal on the gift card and/or product pages?

  • Does it require any theme updates? Do the colors match your brand?

  • Do you have a multi-lingual store? Load the modal in multiple languages.

Confirm Settings

  • Go through all of the Settings tabs in Givy

  • Check the Fraud Prevention settings to understand when a gift will be flagged

  • Make sure the Critical Notifications email is one that will be monitored regularly

  • Ensure that the gifting and shipping settings match

Update Emails

    • Decide whether to show the gift card code in recipient emails
