Zest ‑ Better than Gift Cards

Gifting is ecommerce’s biggest missed opportunity. In a world where customer acquisition and retention is tougher (and more expensive) than ever, it’s time to reimagine where your best customers live. Are your hottest leads at the other end of a cold Facebook ad? Or are they gift recipients who are already enjoying your products and need just a li’l nudge to convert them into your next best customer? Gifting is one of the fastest growing ecommerce categories today. Yet, online gifting hasn’t evolved to meet modern expectations like personalization, a thoughtful customer experience, and a loyal relationship with the brand. Gifters are your greatest advocates. Gift recipients are your warmest leads. And Zest is building the gifting platform that helps stores like yours build personalized relationships with both.
