VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 28,
2023 /PRNewswire/ - Thinkific Labs
Inc. ("Thinkific") (TSX: THNC), a leading platform for creating,
marketing, and selling online learning products, today announced
the official launch of Gifting, a highly requested new feature
which empowers Creators to supercharge their sales by enabling them
to offer their learning products as unique and specialized
gifts.
Adding to the growing list of features available to
Creators within Thinkific's suite of payment tools - TCommerce -
Gifting allows their buyers to seamlessly purchase any learning
product as a gift for someone else. The feature eliminates the need
for Creators to devise complex workarounds, providing a streamlined
and user-friendly gifting experience for their
customers.
Since being first rolled out to Thinkific Creators, the
feature has already gained notable traction with average
transaction sizes 34% higher than normal and the largest gift
purchased exceeding an impressive $4,000.
"I receive emails daily from customers who want to gift online
classes to loved ones," said Thinkific Creator, Stephanie Veillon, CEO at Being Well Inc. "This
Gifting feature will no doubt generate far more sales and help
lighten my workload."
Current Gifting features include a seamless checkout experience
allowing gift buyers to simply specify that a learning product is a
gift and have it sent directly to a recipient, add custom messages
and receive email notifications confirming payments, and that gifts
have been received. Future features will include the ability to
schedule gifts to arrive on key dates, and many others designed to
ensure a smooth, hassle-free gifting experience.
"We're committed to giving Customers the best and most impactful
tools to boost their revenue and grow their online businesses,"
said Greg Smith, CEO of Thinkific.
"Our new Gifting feature not only aligns with this focus but also
demonstrates our continuous commitment to platform and feature
innovation. I'm very proud that in a year in which we've achieved
earlier than expected profitability, we've also delivered a series
of dynamic new feature releases of which Gifting is the most recent
significant addition."
