How to customize your gift registry 

Swym Gift Lists and Registries can be fully customized to match the voice and tone of your store’s brand. Here are some ways you can tailor the gift registry experience to match your brand:

• Add a list of event types for which your customers would create gift registries at your store. This can be traditional ones like a wedding or baby registry or something unconventional like a celebrity gift list. 
• Modify the text, color, and formatting of all the default gift registry pages and forms so the visuals are consistent with your Shopify store and the messaging is relevant to your shoppers.
