Shareagift provides an online group gifting platform that allows people to pool funds together to purchase gifts, taking advantage of the increasing social nature of online interactions and demand for group purchasing of more expensive items; the service connects to social networks to help gifts spread virally and gives retailers tools to integrate group purchasing options to boost sales and acquire new customers through their customers' social networks.

The rise of
Group Gifting Online
Gifting is an innately social activity. As the web itself
becomes more social it’s only natural that this activity
should move online.
Shareagift provides a better solution for group gifting
by moving it online and connecting to the social web
As people increasingly manage their social lives online, and
as coveted gift items become more expensive, a huge
demand for group gifting online is developing
