Drop a Hint
Gift hints that sell Smart Displays
The Shopify wishlist-gifting app for smart displays merchants — let shoppers share what they want, then convert the people who buy for them.
Why it fits
Built for electronics gift intent
When someone wants smart displays as a gift, they rarely say it out loud. Drop a Hint makes the ask elegant: pick a product, share a hint, and let gifters land on a ready-to-buy page. Pair that with tech gifts people research hard — then quietly hint and you get a storefront that sells through relationships, not just ads.
