# Buying gifts through HuntedGift

untedGift recommends personalized gifts from trusted retailers but doesn't sell
products directly. When you click a gift link, you'll be redirected to the
retailer's website to complete your purchase.


HOW PURCHASING WORKS

HuntedGift acts as a recommendation engine, not a store. Here's the flow:

 1. You describe the gift recipient and get AI-powered recommendations

 2. Browse curated gifts with prices from Amazon, Etsy, Target, Walmart,
    Sephora, and other retailers

 3. Click "Buy Now" or the retailer button on any gift

 4. A new tab opens to the retailer's product page

 5. Complete checkout directly with the retailer

Elite plan users get multi-store search results including eBay and Etsy for
broader options.

All pricing shown in HuntedGift is dynamically fetched from retailers, but
prices may change. Always verify the final price on the retailer's site before
purchasing.


WHO HANDLES THE PURCHASE?

The external retailer handles everything after you click through:

 * Payment processing: You pay the retailer directly (Amazon, Etsy, etc.)

 * Shipping: The retailer ships the item using their policies and timelines

 * Returns and refunds: Contact the retailer's customer service for any issues

 * Order tracking: Use the retailer's tracking system

If you see a charge from Amazon, Target, or another store on your statement,
that's expected. HuntedGift never charges you for products.

The only charges you'll see from HuntedGift are subscription fees (Pro or Elite
plans). Gift purchases always go through the external retailer.


SENDING GIFTS TO SOMEONE ELSE

HuntedGift doesn't ship gifts for you, but most retailers offer direct shipping
options:

 1. Click the gift link to open the retailer's product page

 2. Add to cart and proceed to checkout

 3. Enter the recipient's shipping address instead of your own

 4. Many retailers offer gift wrapping, gift messages, or "mark as gift" options

Alternatively, save gifts to a list and share the list with others for group
gifting or to let the recipient choose.


RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Because HuntedGift doesn't sell products, we can't process returns or refunds
for gifts you purchase. Contact the retailer directly:

 * Check the retailer's return policy (usually 30-90 days)

 * Initiate returns through the retailer's website or customer service

 * Follow their specific return shipping instructions

Keep your order confirmation email from the retailer. You'll need it for
returns, exchanges, or tracking.

Each retailer has different policies for returns, exchanges, and refunds.
Amazon, Target, and Walmart typically offer easy returns, while Etsy policies
vary by seller.


WHY HUNTEDGIFT USES AFFILIATE LINKS

HuntedGift earns a small commission when you purchase through our links. This
helps us keep the service running and offer a free tier with daily gift
searches.

Affiliate links don't change your price. You pay the same amount whether you
find the product through HuntedGift or directly on the retailer's site.

We partner with retailers to surface real, user-loved gifts instead of generic
lists. Our AI focuses on quality recommendations, not pushing the highest
commission products.


COMMON QUESTIONS

Can I save gifts without buying immediately? Yes. Click the heart icon to save
gifts to your lists. You can return to purchase later or share the list with
others.

What if a gift is out of stock? Inventory updates in real-time on the retailer's
site. If a recommended gift is unavailable, generate a new search or browse your
saved lists for alternatives.

Do I need an account with the retailer? Most retailers allow guest checkout, but
creating an account helps with order tracking, returns, and faster future
purchases.

Can I price compare across stores? Elite users see multi-store options
automatically. Free and Pro users can manually search the same product on
different retailer sites.
