[dropcap]H[/dropcap]ow often have we sat frustrated upon opening a gift, finding the same photo stand that we had received last year and the year before and the year before that. The world would have been such a happy place if people knew our ‘wish list’.
Veranta Labs’ is all set to introduce the popular international concept of ‘gift registry’ through its latest start-up ‘Wrapp’d’. It provides a one stop platform which allows the user to create a gift registry online. It aims to eliminate the irritation of gift duplication, re-gifting and boring gifts by making available complete and reliable gifting solutions for memorable occasions.
A Gift Registry is a list of products prepared by a gift recipient and shared with near and dear ones.
Anant Patel, managing director and chief technical officer (CTO) said, “The concept was born out of a drive to come up with a venture which provides seamless user experience. This drive was accompanied by genuine general annoyance of receiving gifts with no utility which we found was a common feature of gifting.”
It’s simple, the user has to create their own personalized occasion page on ‘www.wrappd.in’, pick and add the gifts from any e-tailer or physical store they would like to receive, select the option of sharing the registry with family and friends and wait for the special day.
Nischint Sanghavi, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Co-Founder said “The entire Wrapp’d team has put in a lot of effort in making the idea relatable to Indian users. We have designed the Wrapp’d website carefully to increase the excitement of both hosts and guests as they sift through the catalogues, categories and interactive gift guides.”
Wrapp’d’s team handpick, collect and curate over 3000 gifts from bespoke, quirky and leading e-Commerce sites across India. The gifts are categorized into seasonal catalogues and collections which are relevant to your occasion, taste, choice of brands and budget.
The choice varies from a list of special milestones like birthdays, weddings, housewarming and baby showers and gift guides for personal and quirky preferences like ‘Ladies Lust List’, ‘Gentleman’s Corner’, ‘The Stork’s Visit’and many more.
One can also create their list selecting items from categories across Home, Electronics, Fashion, Mom & Baby, Kids, Teens, Toddlers and Experiences.
