Drop a Hint
Turn Kids Costumes browsers into gifters
The Shopify wishlist-gifting app for kids costumes merchants — let shoppers share what they want, then convert the people who buy for them.
Why it fits

FAQ
Kids Costumes + Drop a Hint
How does Drop a Hint help kids costumes stores?

Drop a Hint supports multi-channel sharing including email and SMS so gifters get a clear product link. Merchants keep the experience on-brand while shoppers choose how they ask.
