Sibling Wishlist Swap

Aug 2025

Campaign Concept

Theme: “Sibling Wishlist Swap”
Hook: No more gifting guesswork — this Raksha Bandhan, let your wishlist do the talking. Share it with your sibling and make gift-giving simple, special, and spot-on.

How it Works:

  • Merchants curate a “Rakhi Gifting” collection — fashion, skincare, accessories, and keepsakes.

  • Shoppers create their wishlist from this collection and use the “Share Wishlist” feature to send it to their sibling.

  • Shared wishlists come with built-in nudges or hints (optional personalization fields).

  • Merchants can offer bonus entries into a giveaway or discount on wishlist items when shared.

Industries Best Suited For

Fashion & Apparel

Ethnicwear, casual gifting sets, scarves, watches, and sibling-friendly fashion bundles make excellent Rakhi gifts. With wishlists, shoppers can drop clear hints on what they love.

Jewelry & Accessories

Think dainty gold chains, silver rings, personalized pendants, and Rakhi-special pieces. Wishlist sharing ensures those high-value items aren’t left to chance.

Beauty & Skincare

Self-care kits, fragrance sets, grooming bundles, and skincare routines are great for sisters and brothers alike. Sharing wishlists can reduce gifting friction and drive bundle sales.

Gifts & Curated Hampers

Rakhi-specific gift boxes — with sweets, candles, and personalized notes — often feature in seasonal searches. A wishlist-based nudge helps customers lock in meaningful presents without scrolling endlessly.

Why This Campaign Could Work

Seasonal Emotional Hook

Raksha Bandhan is rooted in the tradition of thoughtful gifting between siblings — especially brothers to sisters. A campaign that helps shoppers easily share their wishlists brings relevance, emotion, and utility to this much-loved festival.

Wishlist-Driven Engagement

When shoppers can create and share their wishlist with their sibling, it takes the guesswork out of gifting. It makes the process more personal, while giving merchants valuable insight into shopper intent.

Surprise & Delight Tactic

Letting shoppers “drop hints” by sharing wishlists adds an element of fun and surprise. It makes the gifting feel special and well-matched, while also increasing the likelihood of conversion for high-intent items.

Collection-Specific Focus

Tying the wishlist to a Rakhi Gifting collection allows brands to surface curated giftables — like jewelry, grooming kits, or accessories — and move festive inventory effectively.
