The future of gifting isn't just about holidays and milestones anymore—it's about everyday moments that matter. Our CRO Brett Narlinger explores how micro-gifting is reshaping retail, turning small, spontaneous gestures into powerful drivers of emotional connection and brand engagement. From a quick coffee credit to celebrate a win to a meal delivery gift after a tough day, these seamless, social exchanges are creating a new layer of commerce that complements traditional seasonal peaks. The data is compelling: Nearly half of Gen Z consumers plan to make purchases through social platforms, and 42% are likely to buy gifts via social media. That's not just a trend—it's a fundamental shift in how people express care and maintain connections.
