I want to offer customers an option to add gift wrap/gift box for £3
how do i do this?
Thank you so much!
Hi @pinkrainbow1
You can follow this guide to add a gift wrap option to your cart page if you're tech-savvy.
I would love to list out some primary steps:
1. Create a gift-wrap product
2. Create a menu
3. Create a code snippet
4. Include the snippet in your cart template
If you're not comfortable with code, you can achieve this with a third-party app. Here are some suggestions:
- Wrapin ‑ Gift Wrap & Options
- Gift Wrap Plus (free plan available)
- Zestard Gift Wrap
I hope this helps!
Unfortunately, as gifting options vary widely from site to site, we observe in usability testing that users looking to place an order as a gift must assess each site they visit for the availability and cost of gifting options.
Hi @pinkrainbow1 !
That's a great question. The simplest option to add gift wrapping to your store would be to implement an application. This will add a feature to your storefront allowing your customers to add gift wrapping for an additional cost. This is something that will be automatically calculated in the checkout process. You can see the application options here. It is important to note that some of these apps will incur a monthly fee.
Alternatively, you can use a manual option whereby you would create a product for the gift wrapping. This product can be added to the customers cart with the additional cost calculated in their total. The only downfall to this option would be the chance that a customer may not see the product to add to cart. To work around this, I recommend adding a hyperlink in your regular product descriptions to announce to your customers that gift wrapping is available by clicking on the link. This link will lead to the product for gift wrapping.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Cheers!
