Some of the problems with presenting a generic giftcard to someone is that the gesture can some across as lazy or the card often goes unspent—but to send a gift using the GiftCaddies app is a much different experience.
GiftCaddies is a social gifting platform that makes it possible to send and receive gifts from a mobile device. Ideal for last-minute gifting, the app makes it possible to send gifts 24/7 and have a recipient redeem the gift immediately.
Some of the experiential gifts that can be redeemed include hotel bookings, travel excursions, as well as restaurant dinners, spa visits and entertainment. Although the gifts available are limited to certain locations, the app continues to expand by bringing on new vendors in different places across the United States.
