Givy centers on gifting products, subscriptions, memberships, and gift cards through a branded recipient journey. Rise.ai centers on credit-based retention. Choose around the customer experience and workflows your store needs.
Does Rise.ai charge only for gift orders?
No. Its published plans count total store orders toward included allowances and additional-order charges. Givy percentage fees apply to gifts and gift cards processed through Givy.
Which app is better for subscription gifts?
Givy works with every Shopify subscription app. A subscription integration alone does not confirm gift purchase, duration, and recipient redemption behavior. Test the full scenario with your chosen provider.
Should I replace my loyalty program with Givy?
If you rely on cashback, credit rewards, or a wallet, map those requirements before switching. A gifting experience and a loyalty program can serve different needs.
Can I move existing cards and balances?
Givy supports bulk gift card imports. Review outstanding cards, wallet balances, credit liabilities, scheduled sends, and rewards with the team before agreeing a migration. Verify balances and redemption before launch.
Can I try Givy before committing?
