Social Gifting Apps


Giving a gift is one of the most common ways of celebrating birthdays and anniversaries.  And many of us spend a considerable amount of time shopping for these gifts. Most of us have some friends and relatives living on a different continent which means their gifts are needed to be couriered to them. Even after all this effort and expenditure we are not certain if the receiver will end up liking the gift.
The only way to ensure that your gift will be truly cherished is by finding out what exactly they would love to have. At times we figure out our friends’ preferences because we know a great deal about their interests and inclinations. But even in that case, they may already posses the item we are planning to buy for them, and the effort can go to waste.
This is why Gifting apps are quite popular amongst many internet users. They not only make the gifting process incredibly smooth but also give users the option to create their online wish list and let their friends and family know what they would want for their birthday, anniversary, wedding or any other occasion. The best gifting apps are the ones that could be operated through the social network. The reason being, social media is the best platform for exchanging sentiments and sharing ideas. Almost everyone we know has a Facebook account so it is easier to access their wish list before buying them anything as a gift.
 
One such Facebook applicationGiftBox, has been launched recently byInvert Logistics. It was designed by Avenue Social Inc., who are known for developing ground-breaking Facebook Applications. According to criticsGiftBox has the potential to gather a million users in the next 6 to 8 weeks. What makes this app stand out amongst all the other social gifting apps is the fact it is also available for iPhone and Android users, and they can easily use it on their mobile phones.
You can create different wish lists by adding products from multiple online shopping websites for every occasion on GiftBox and your Friends can review it via their Facebook account. These gifts can be easily bought with a few simple clicks.
