What does KangoGift do?
KangoGift is a mobile gifting platform that offers a fun and quick way for people to send gifts as text message (SMS) vouchers to their friends’ cell phones. Gift recipients then stop by a store, present their voucher, and redeem their gift. KangoGift helps its retail partners increase revenue, store traffic, and brand image by offering a toolkit to sell through the social web.
How are they different?
KangoGift enables people to send real gifts such as an ice cream cone directly to a recipient’s cell phone. This new concept of mobile gifting makes it easy for people to send instant, “thinking of you,” presents from their favorite stores.
Why could KangoGift be BIG?
Why send a virtual ice cream when you can send a real one? KangoGift is the next frontier in virtual gifting with its combination of virtual shopping with real world products.
How they plan to make money:
KangoGift makes money from the businesses who use the platform.
