Halloween Gift Tips for Shopify StoresSeasonal wrapping, notes and delivery before the 31st

Halloween is October 31, but the parties, treat bags and office celebrations happen all week. Shoppers ordering treats or small gifts want them wrapped for the season and delivered in time. Here's how to get your Shopify store ready.

What Halloween shoppers ask for

Seasonal wrapping — orange and black paper, pumpkin stickers, a ribbon.
Arrive before the party — often a weekend before the 31st, not the day itself.
A short note — "Happy Halloween!" and a name is usually enough.
Different wraps per item — handy when one order goes to several kids or friends.

Seasonal wrapping and cards

Add a Halloween wrap and card to your choices for October, then remove them in November. Shoppers pick from photos, and you can let them choose per item. (Guide)

Gift box and message card options shown as image cards with prices, plus a message field — Shoppers pick wrapping and cards from photos, then type their message.

Delivery before the 31st

Set your earliest date and cutoff so shoppers can't pick a date you can't meet.
Add a notice under the delivery fields: "Order by October 27 for Halloween delivery".
Offer a time slot so treats arrive before the party starts.

Delivery fields in the cart: date calendar, time window, where to leave it and gift receipt — Delivery date, time slot, where to leave it and gift receipt, all in the cart.

Add a treat

Suggest candy, cookies or small decorations in the "You may also like" row. One tap adds them to the cart. (Guide)

Set it up with Gift Style

Install and turn on the app — add Gift Style from the Shopify App Store, then switch it on under App embeds in your theme. (Guide)
Add the block to your cart page — in the theme editor, open the Cart page and add the Gift options block. (Guide)
Add a preset — press Wrapping set and Message card set and the choices drop in, complete with images. Swap in photos of your own wrapping and cards when you are ready. (Guide)
Pick the products and save — choose which products the options apply to. (Guide)
Turn on delivery dates (optional) — open Delivery in the app and switch on the date calendar, time slots, where to leave it and gift receipt. (Guide)
