What is Giftnote: Gift Message & Cards?
Giftnote automates branded gift notes timed to actual delivery via live carrier tracking, sends gift cards directly to the recipient rather than the buyer, and supports self-serve multi-address corporate gifting. It shows a perfect 5.0/5 rating on 163 reviews. It's developed by Giftnote, based in Sydney, Australia, and launched in March 2022.
How does the app work on a Shopify store?
Merchants set up branded SMS and email gift messages that trigger precisely when the carrier marks a package delivered, rather than at checkout, so the surprise isn't spoiled by an early email. Every gift recipient syncs to Klaviyo, turning what the app describes as would-be "black hole" recipients into marketable contacts. Corporate and bulk gifting supports multi-address orders with automated tax and shipping. It's currently English-only and connects to 1,500+ global shipping carriers, Klaviyo, Attentive and Shipstation.
Why choose Giftnote over another gifting app?
Delivery-triggered gift notes, timed to real carrier tracking rather than checkout, is a more sophisticated mechanic than most competitors in this list, directly solving the "gift card email arrives before the physical gift" problem. Syncing every gift recipient to Klaviyo as a new marketable contact is a genuine growth lever most gift-card apps don't offer. Reviews consistently describe hands-on onboarding support and quarterly check-ins from the team, a good sign of ongoing relationship management beyond initial setup, particularly useful for a merchant running an active corporate gifting program.
