Test the complete gift journey
Check the shopper, merchant and recipient journey together before relying on it for orders.
How to use it
- Use a Shopify development store with test payments configured. Use sender and recipient contact details you can access.
- Open a storefront product, choose a gift option and check that the cart shows the right product, quantity and price.
- Complete a test checkout. Open the order in PrepMyGifts and Shopify, and check that your team can find the purchased gift details.
- For a personal message, finish any later upload and wait for the recipient link. Open it, scan the product and check that the intended message plays or displays.
- For multi-address gifting, check the combined payment, each recipient order and the verified buyer tracking page. Test cancellation separately in the development store.
- Repeat the storefront steps on a phone. If you offer scheduled or delivery-triggered messages, test that timing too.
What to know
An interactive demo does not place an order or confirm email, SMS or WhatsApp delivery. Check the actual test order and destination inbox or phone.
For delivery-triggered messages, the store must supply the relevant Shopify delivery event. A shipping label alone is not confirmation that the gift was delivered.
What happens next
You can confirm the cart charges, order details, sending account and recipient experience work together for your chosen configuration.
