1. Add the Multi-Gift Button to Your Shopify Store

The Multi Gift button takes shoppers from your Shopify store to your Multi Gift storefront, where they can send gifts to several people in one order instead of checking out once per gift. It suits corporate buyers placing bulk orders and shoppers sending gifts to friends and family. Multi Gift is on the Professional plan.

Before you start: set up your storefront first. See Set up Multi Gift.

Option 1: Add the Multi-Gift button via Theme Editor (Online Store 2.0)

1. Open the theme editor from Giftnote. Go to Settings → Multi Gifts. In the Widgets card, select Add to theme next to Multi Gift Redirect. Your Shopify theme editor (where you arrange your store's pages) opens on a product page.
2. Add the block if it isn't there yet. Select Add block, search for "giftnote" and choose Multi Gift Redirect from the Apps tab.
3. Drag it where you want it, for example under the Add to cart button.
4. Select Save.

You can change the button's style in the theme editor.

What happens next?

• The button opens your Multi Gift storefront.
• Once your customer has added their gifts and recipients, they pay at your normal Shopify checkout.

Option 2: Add the button to cart page or cart drawer

You can also put the button on your cart page or in your cart drawer (the cart that slides out from the side).

• If your theme allows it, add the Multi Gift Redirect block to the cart section in the theme editor.
• If it doesn't, use the code snippet below.

Option 3: Manual snippet for non–Online Store 2.0 themes

Older themes (not Online Store 2.0) don't support app blocks. On those, paste this snippet into your theme's code where you want the button, for example in cart.liquid. Liquid is the code language Shopify themes use.

<giftnote-multigift
  data-shop="{{ shop.permanent_domain | replace: '.myshopify.com', '' }}"
  data-styles="giftnote-cart-multigift"
  data-label="SEND TO MULTIPLE ADDRESSES"
></giftnote-multigift>

Important: the snippet only works when the Giftnote Control Panel app embed is on. (An app embed is a switch in your theme editor that loads an app on every page.) In the theme editor, open App embeds, turn on Giftnote Control Panel and select Save.

Not sure which file or where? Paste this prompt into ChatGPT or Claude:

I want to add a "Send to multiple addresses" button to my Shopify store for Giftnote Multi Gift. My theme is [THEME NAME] and it doesn't support app blocks, so I need to paste a Liquid snippet into a theme file. I want the button [WHERE, e.g. "under the checkout button on the cart page" or "in the cart drawer"].

This is the snippet from Giftnote. Don't change it, apart from the data-label text if I ask:

<giftnote-multigift
  data-shop="{{ shop.permanent_domain | replace: '.myshopify.com', '' }}"
  data-styles="giftnote-cart-multigift"
  data-label="SEND TO MULTIPLE ADDRESSES"
></giftnote-multigift>

The Giftnote Control Panel app embed is already switched on in my theme editor (the snippet needs it).

Tell me:
1. Which theme file to open (for example cart.liquid, main-cart-footer.liquid or a cart drawer snippet) and how to find it in Online Store → Themes → Edit code.
2. Exactly where to paste the snippet, with a few lines of the surrounding code so I can find the spot.
3. How to check it works.

Don't change any other code. Tell me to duplicate my theme first as a backup. If you need to see my code, ask me to paste the file.

Duplicate your theme before editing code, and check the button in a private window afterwards.

Check the button is live

In Giftnote, go to Settings → Multi Gifts and find Multi Gift Redirect in the Widgets card. It shows Not added, with an Add to theme button, until the block is on your theme. You'll see the same row in the Storefront widgets card on Settings → Overview.

The status only checks your published theme. If you added the block to an unpublished theme, the status updates once you publish it.
