Please note- this feature is open to our customers on the Enterprise plan.

What is the Gifting API?

The Gifting API was designed to provide Rise merchants with a completely flexible gift card experience. By having custom front-end gifting modules, as well as enabling gift card sales on any of your store’s platforms (e.g. native mobile app, headless store, etc), Rise can provide you with the freedom to fit your brand’s needs.

Common use cases:

1. Flexibility in Setup & Design

Removing the structure of a pre-designed app allows for complete flexibility in the design, customization, and setup of your gift card. Separating our features functionality ensures that you can download the Rise app and create whatever experience you intend, ensuring your store has the most beautifully designed gift cards.

2. Native Mobile App/POS

If you have a mobile app separate from your online store or a POS system that is not Shopify POS, you are able to utilize the management tools provided with this API, allowing your customers to purchase from all your different platforms.
