Frequently Asked Questions

When should I send the gift purchase survey?

Ideally 1-2 days after the gift is delivered (if you can track delivery). For in-store purchases with wrapping, send within a day. For special occasions like birthdays, time it for after the celebration date.

How do I know if the recipient liked the gift?

This survey includes a recipient reaction section that asks buyers to report feedback they received. While not direct recipient feedback, it provides valuable insight into gift selection success and can identify product fit issues.

Should I include gift receipt options in the survey?

Yes, if you offer gift receipts. The survey can help identify if customers used them, if recipients needed to make exchanges, and how that process went - valuable for improving return experiences.

How can I use this data for holiday planning?

Analyze which gift services are most valued (wrapping, messages, gift boxes), which occasions drive purchases, and common pain points. Use this to plan inventory, train staff on gift services, and optimize packaging before the next peak season.

Can buyers remain anonymous about what they purchased?

The template doesn't require product details to be shared. You can customize to make product-specific questions optional, while still gathering valuable feedback on the overall gift buying experience.

How do I handle gift returns feedback?

The survey includes conditional questions about returns and exchanges. If selected, it asks about the return experience. This helps identify if returns are due to product issues, sizing, or recipient preferences.
