Guide to gifting Remento
Updated over 2 months ago

Remento’s life story books turn your loved one’s memories into a book of their stories - all without writing a single word. There are a few ways to gift Remento depending on the gift recipient and what kind of book you'd like to gift them.

Option 1: Gift your loved one a life story book, hosted by you (Recommended)

As a host, you can:

  • Help select story prompts and upload photos

  • Edit stories

  • Invite family members

  • Coordinate book printing

With this option, Remento will send a gift delivery email to your recipient on the date you choose. You also have the option to print a gift card for hand-delivery.

This is the ideal gift for an aging relative or a friend or family member who will benefit from having all the weekly prompts set up for them.

Here's how it looks when you're setting up your gift during checkout:

When you purchase a gift card:

  • You receive a unique code to give your recipient 100% off Remento

  • You control when to share the code with your recipient

  • Includes access to a printable gift card

After you deliver your gift card (you can send it via email or print it to give in person), your recipient will go to Remento's website and checkout using their unique code.

With this gift option, your recipient will select their prompts and will have the option to invite you and others to the project. They will control more of their settings and can choose to keep the project private if they wish.
