The Perks of eGifting

September 14th, 2023

The average time people spend on their phones is higher now than ever before and continues to grow. With access to just about anything at their fingertips, it’s never been more convenient for consumers to shop from wherever they are. More than 50% of Americans purchase items online daily. Gone are the days of getting dressed, going to the store, panning over hundreds of items, then standing in line for a last minute gift. The equation becomes even more difficult if you need a gift for someone in a different region than you and the gift needs to be shipped!

Here at VanillaGift, we realize that getting gifts to those you care about or forgot about (whoops) can be a hassle, so we created eDelivery (digital) of our gift cards. Time and time again, our eGift option has shown to be a popular go-to for customers. There's nothing quite like holding a physical gift card in your hands, and we understand that, but sometimes eGifts may be the preferred choice (or only choice). Here are some reasons to consider eGift over physical next time you shop. 

 

Convenience. There's nothing like picking up your phone, heading to VanillaGift.com, and breezing through the checkout process. In no time, a gift card will be in your or your intended recipient’s inbox.  

 

No address management. When your friend moves across the country from Florida to Colorado or from California to New York, you don't need to update your address book and avoid potentially getting the city, zip, or street number wrong. Just enter their email and their ‘Congratulations’ present is on its way! 

 

Perfect for last-minute. eGifts are perfect for all occasions and times. So, when someone asks to bring their new partner to your holiday gathering or your third cousin has a birthday party, you don't have to stress about locating a gift last minute. In as little as fifteen minutes, Vanilla has you covered. 

 

You're an indecisive shopper. Trekking to your local grocer only to be bombarded by endless possibilities of gift cards staring at you can be overwhelming. Put the shelves behind you, get rid of the crowds, go through the user-friendly checkout Vanilla provides, and off you go. 

 

Simplicity. The funds on Vanilla gift cards never expire, and no fees are associated after purchase. The funds will still be available whether the card is used immediately or five years from now. 

 

Pay with what you have. Not everyone has the same payment methods, so we accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or Discovercredit/debit cards. You can also purchase withPayPal, Venmo, Click to Pay, or Apple Pay(on supported devices). 

 

Safety and security. eGifts come directly from Vanilla. This means you can't accidentally drop the card, it can't be stolen out of your wallet, and it won't be thrown away in a stack of bills.   

 

Environmentally friendly. eGifts cut down on plastic use and plastic waste from use. Who doesn’t want to Save the Whales or Save the Turtles by cutting down on the more than 350 million metric tons of plastic waste produced yearly?
