New Gifting Feature: Boost Your Sales with the Gift of Knowledge

In the ever-evolving world of online education, LearnTourism.org has introduced a new feature designed to enhance the way you sell your learning products: the Gifting feature. This exciting addition allows your audience to purchase your courses as gifts for friends, family, and loved ones, creating a fresh avenue for expanding your reach and boosting your sales. Here’s a closer look at how this feature works and how it can benefit you and your audience.

Expand Your Audience with the Gift of Learning

One of the most compelling benefits of the Gifting feature is the opportunity to tap into a new audience. When someone gifts your learning product, they introduce your content to a recipient who might not have otherwise discovered your work. This exposure can lead to increased visibility and potential future sales as recipients share their new knowledge with their network or decide to gift it to others.

Streamlined Purchasing and Checkout

LearnTourism.org’s Gifting feature simplifies the purchasing process for both the buyer and the recipient. Your audience can easily buy courses as gifts with a quick and hassle-free checkout experience. No more clunky workarounds or complicated processes—just a seamless transaction that makes gifting straightforward and enjoyable.

Personalization at Its Best

When a learning product is purchased as a gift, the buyer can include a custom message. This personal touch not only enhances the gifting experience but also sets the recipient up for success by adding a thoughtful note that accompanies their new educational resource.

Efficient Notification System

The gifting process is supported by a robust notification system. Buyers receive email confirmations of their purchase, while recipients get notifications about the gift and instructions on how to redeem it. A unique invite URL is also provided for easy sharing. This ensures that everyone involved has a smooth, hassle-free experience from start to finish.

How It Works for Creators, Buyers, and Recipients

Creator Experience:
If you’re a paying LearnTourism.org TCommerce customer, the Gifting feature is enabled by default on your checkout page. This means that buyers can select your products as gifts directly during checkout, for all one-time payment products that do not include an order bump offer. Notifications about new orders and gift redemptions will keep you informed, with each transaction recorded separately in your orders table. If needed, you can disable this feature through your site settings.

Buyer Experience:
When a buyer chooses to gift a product, they can provide the recipient’s details and a personalized message. Payment can be completed using various methods, including digital wallets and Buy Now, Pay Later options. Post-purchase, buyers receive a receipt, and the recipient gets an invitation to redeem their gift.

Recipient Experience:
Recipients receive an email with a gift invitation, allowing them to create an account on your site and access their new course. They’ll also receive an order receipt email confirming that their gift has been claimed.

Real-World Impact

Gesine Prado, a LearnTourism.org Creator, shared her enthusiasm for the new feature, noting, “My customers and I have had to spend an inordinate amount of time finding a workaround for gifting classes to fans. I receive emails daily from customers who want to gift online classes to loved ones. This will generate far more sales and help lighten my workload. With the holidays approaching, I am dreading the emails I'll have to answer and the trickery I'll have to help perform for people to gift my classes.”

Important Considerations

To make the most of the Gifting feature, keep these considerations in mind:

• Gifting is not available on free plans.
• Products with an order bump cannot be gifted; disable the order bump to make the product eligible.
• Products priced as free, subscription-based, or with payment plans cannot be gifted.
• Discounts from coupons can be applied but cannot reduce the price to 100%.
• Bulk gift purchases are not supported; only one gift can be purchased per transaction.
• After-purchase flows are not available for gift purchases.

With LearnTourism.org’s Gifting feature, you can effortlessly expand your audience, streamline the purchasing process, and offer a personalized touch to the gift of learning. It’s a powerful way to enhance your sales and provide a meaningful experience for both givers and receivers alike.

Embrace the opportunity to spread knowledge and watch your audience—and your sales—grow!
