First, create a gift for someone special. A Lottay gift is cash transfered via PayPal. The gift you create is a customized web page that suggests how to spend the money you're going to give. For example, a massage! or a vacation! or a new dress!
Next, add a personal message to your gift by choosing an ecard and adding a note. You also can include images and photos.
Almost done: Use PayPal or a credit card to instantly send the money for the gift. The recipient receives the money directly and can spend it on anything they like. If the recipient doesn't already have a PayPal account, they can create one to redeem their money after the gift is sent.
To use Lottay you and the recipient don't need to have a PayPal account in advance.
PayPal allows you to send money instantly to someone else in the world safely and securely. As the gift giver when you send your gift, PayPal will tell the recipient that the money is waiting for them.
Once your recipient claims the money they can transfer it to their checking account or ask for a paper check to be sent to them. So when you send them the gift it's like they instantly have the money. If the money is not claimed for some reason it will be returned to you by PayPal so it's never lost, unlike a gift card.
With Lottay, the gift you choose can be literally anything. Dinner at their favorite restauraunt or money toward voice lessons are a couple examples.
Nope. They can use the money on the gift you chose or something else entirely. It's like a gift card to anywhere but way more personal!
Of course! Invite others to contribute by clicking on "Make it a Group Gift" on the final page of the gift giving process.
Lottay is completely free for our users. We try to help match you with retailers who carry your gift. If we find a match, the retailers pay us.
PayPal makes the money available to your recipient whether or not they have a PayPal account. Unlike a gift card this money is never lost and will be returned to you if it remains uncollected.
Not to get started. If you don't have one you'll create one in the process of sending a gift. All you need is a credit card. This allows us to guarantee that you transaction is safe, secure, and will get delivered with PayPal.
They do not need to have a PayPal account in advance. However, because the money is sent through PayPal they will need to create one. If they choose not to create a PayPal account, the money will be returned to you through PayPal.
You can wish for anything with Lottay. Wish for what you really want – yoga lessons, lunch at your favorite restaurant, an iPhone, whatever! Share your wishes with friends and family – for your birthday, the holidays, just because! Your friends and family can give you money toward your gift. (It's safe: We're partners with PayPal!)
Know what they really want. Invite your friends and family to make their own wish lists. Keep track of what they want. Give them gifts with an eCard and money to help them get their wish. Or just buy it outright. Give the most fashionable and versatile gift of all – money! – with a wonderful e-card and the security of PayPal. Or you could buy the gift.
