Abstract: A group video generating system includes an application that is executed on each of multiple computing devices to generate a graphical user interface (GUI) that receives from each of a plurality of participants, a video segment including content directed toward a recipient. The application combines the video segment from each participant to form a group video, and transmits the group video to the recipient.

Abstract: A stored value card activation system includes a server in communication with one or more computing devices configured in kiosks. The server receives stored value card type information associated with one of multiple non-activated stored value cards from the computing device. The server also receives monetary amount information to be associated with the selected stored value card from the kiosk, and payment information from a user of the kiosk. From this information, the server conducts a financial transaction with a financial account server associated with an account of the user, and activates the selected stored value card in accordance with the financial transaction.

Abstract: An electronic gifting system includes a first computing device that receives voucher information associated with an electronic voucher (e-voucher) to be given to a recipient from a second computing device. The voucher is redeemable for a specified product or service provided by a merchant. The first computing device also receives user-supplied content related to the recipient, and generates the e-voucher in accordance with the voucher information and the user-supplied content. Thereafter, the first computing device displays the generated e-voucher on a recipient computing device in which the e-voucher including imagery that is associated with the specified product or service and the user-supplied content. At least one of the generated e-voucher or an environment in which the e-voucher is displayed is manipulated according to information obtained from one or more sensors configured on the recipient computing device.

Abstract: A personalized webpage gifting system is provided that includes a server that generates a graphical user interface (GUI) on a computing device for receiving recipient information associated with a recipient and one or more participants from a host. Using this information, the server creates a personal uniform resource locator (URL) based upon at least a portion of the recipient information, and generates a personalized webpage addressed by said personal uniform resource locator, the personalized webpage comprising personalized content for the recipient received from the host and the one or more participants.
