How can one user gift another user with a product ? #1010

Closed romansorochak closed 4 years ago

romansorochak commented 5 years ago

Hello In my current project I have a flow where one user can gift another user. User1 (Sender) purchases some product (underwear) as a gift to User2(Receiver). Then User2(Receiver) should only choose color & size. (The flow is described on the screenshot attached) giftFLOW

I was considering implementation as follow:

  1. When User1(Sender) tries to gif User2(Receiver) with the product(underwear) actually User1 buys a gift card (the price of the gift card equals to the price of the product (underwear)
  2. We save this gift card on our server.
  3. Then User2(Receiver) chooses color & size of the product (underwear). Then he provides shipping details. And then completes checkout with the gift card applied.

questions:

  1. Is this flow correct in terms of implementation ?
  2. Since gift card is enough to purchase a product (underwear) can user2(Receiver) avoid providing his card details ?
  3. Is there a simpler solution to implement this flow ?

Thanks in advance for your help or any consideration about this flow!
