Drop a Hint

Resort Wear stores, clearer wishlists

The Shopify wishlist-gifting app for resort wear merchants — let shoppers share what they want, then convert the people who buy for them.

Why it fits

Built for fashion gift intent

Resort Wear catalogs thrive when purchase intent is social. Drop a Hint lets customers send product hints by email, SMS, and more, turning quiet wishlist energy into tracked referrals. If your assortment is built around wardrobe pieces people love to receive as gifts, this is the conversion layer between “I love this” and “someone just bought it for me.”

What merchants get

  • Reduce returns from wrong-size or wrong-style resort wear gifts
  • Turn social proof into attributable orders from referred buyers
  • Support seasonal peaks when resort wear gift demand spikes
  • Capture gift intent on resort wear PDPs before shoppers bounce
  • Keep traffic on your Shopify store instead of generic registries

Use cases

  • Thank-you gifts colleagues can buy in one click
