A text is sent to your recipient

When the order is completed your recipient will receive a text message from GIFTBYTEXT explaining that you have purchased a gift for them.

A second text message follows with the unique link to their personalized gifting page so they can arrange delivery. 

The Recipient

Here's what happens after you place your order:

Your chosen recipient receives a text message at the time / date of your choosing. This text message clearly states that you have kindly purchased a lovely gift basket for them.

When they click the link in the text message on their phone, it takes the recipient to their own personalized gifting page showcasing the gift message you have written along with the details of the food basket you have purchased for them.

The recipient then simply selects the ‘Arrange Delivery’ button to enter their preferred delivery date and address.

We'll then deliver the gift basket by their preferred delivery date and all your recipient has to do is sit back and wait for their delicious arrival!

What is a Gift by Text e-voucher?

Gift by Text is a special method for sending gifts.
 

Like an e-voucher, rather than the recipient receiving a physcial gift, they receive a text/email link to their gift. 
 

You choose the hamper you'd like to give them and enter your gift message. On your chosen date your recipient will receive a text/email telling them that you have purchased a gift for them. 
 

The text/email will contain a link showing them their gift hamper and your personalised gift message. 
 

Your recipient can then enter their preferred delivery address and delivery date. 

Gifts by Text is a brilliant solution for last minute gifts and same day gift delivery.

If there isn’t time for them to physically receive the gift for the special date, they can still receive the gift link and read your personal gift message.
 

Gift by Text is also a great option for business orders. If you’re ordering a large number of client gifts or team gifts, it may be too huge a task to collate recipient addresses – either for GDPR or time reasons.
 

With Gift by Text, all you need to do is provide us with either recipient mobile numbers or email addresses and they’ll receive a link to fill out their address information themselves. Our Corporate Experience Team would love to help further – please email corporate@britishhamper.com
 

Gift by Text is an efficient, hassle-free gifting option for corporate hampers, last minute gifts, same day delivery gifts and fast delivery gifts.

When do the Gifts by Text e-vouchers expire?

If you order a food basket using our gifts by text option, your recipient will have 1 year to organise delivery from the date they receive the link.
 

This extended delivery time frame gives you recipient the freedom to schedule gift delivery for when it suits them.

Why send a gift by text e-voucher?

Sending a gift by text is an exciting, modern and hassle free way to receive a gift for the following reasons.
 

  • It provides same day delivery. The moment you check out online, your recipient will receive a link to their gift via text message or email (unless you choose a later date for them to receive it). The link will contain a personal message from you along with a photo of their gift hamper that you’ve kindly sent them. Rather than the gift physically arriving on the same day, your recipient will then have the freedom to choose when they’d like the gift delivered. We offer fast delivery gifts UK and internationally as well as future scheduled gifts.

     
  • It’s a great last minute gift solution. Has an important date crept up on you and you haven’t organised a gift? With our efficient, hassle-free online checkout, you can choose the ‘gift by text’ option on all our hampers. Your recipient will receive their gift the same day you checkout, via an email or text message link, and they can then organise delivery.

     
  • It’s a hassle-free bulk corporate gifting solution. If you’re placing an order of a large number of corporate hampers, you may find it difficult to collate all your recipients’ addresses in time. With ‘gift by text’, you can simply collate mobile numbers and/or email addresses. We’ll then send the gift via a link to each recipient, and they can enter their own addresses and choose when they’d prefer delivery. Our Corporate Experience Team would love to help further at corporate@britishhamper.com

     
  • It’s a great corporate gifting method for HR departments that send gifts year-round. With the rise of employees and clients now working from home, keeping on top of addresses is difficult. If you send corporate hampers year-round, it’s likely your address lists need continuous updating as people move home. It’s much rarer for employees to change their email address or mobile number. Want to send a birthday hamper to each member of your team throughout the year? Just pop us their email address and/or mobile number along with the date you’d like each text to be sent to each person and we’ll send the link to their corporate gift hamper.
Which food baskets are available as same day delivery gifts?

With the ‘gift by text’ option, all our luxury food baskets are now available for same day delivery.
 

Once you add a gift to your basket, you’ll be able to choose the ‘gift by text’ option. You can then control when your recipient receives the text or email that contains the link to the gift basket you’re gifting them.
 

This can be same day gift delivery of the text/email or you can schedule for a future date. It’s a great option if you’re looking for fast gift delivery UK or internationally bound.
