Gifting 1.0 does not work on the Marketplace.

Wondering what the difference is between gifting 1.0 and 3.1? Here's a handy table outlining the features of each program with a short explanation of each.


Available only on Gifting 1.0: 

You can make the gift recipient a separate customer in the Seller Dashboard.

Gift recipient can have their own account on seller's site.

Gift sender can choose the date they want gift recipient to receive notification email: this email includes their gift code to claim their gift and the message sent from the gift sender.

You can export gift information from gift export report: this includes gift ID, order placed at, gift sender, gift receiver, gift product, gift email and gift redemption code.

You can send a gift card to gift recipient to redeem for their subscription.

Available on Gifting 1.0 & Gifting 3.1

You can collect gift recipient information at checkout: this includes gift recipient name, email and the gift message.

You can create a custom gift email template to be sent to gift recipients: for storefront gift purchases, sellers can customize the look and fell of their gift email via the notification message editor.

You can sell non-auto renewing gifts: these gifts don't renew after the original purchase term has ended.

You can use "purchased as a gift" as a cancellation reason: When canceling a gift purchase, the sender can now check off, "purchased as a gift" so seller's have a better understanding of their churn.

While this notification is automatically sent for Marketplace purchases, it can be turned off in the Notification Settings for purchases thru seller storefronts.
