Abstract: A method for enabling redeemable gift messages to be ordered and sent comprises presenting a webpage for customer orders by means of a server. After receiving a response from a customer that a redeemable gift message has been selected, the server presents information on a webpage to the customer to enable the customer to order a redeemable gift message. After receiving a redeemable gift message order from the customer, the server sends a redeemable gift message or an invitation to accept or reject the message to a recipient designated by the customer. A system for implementing the above method comprises a storage that stores at least one order form; and a processor that presents a webpage for customer orders, the at least one order form from the storage, and sends a redeemable gift message or an invitation to accept or reject the message to a recipient designated by a customer according to information on the customer order form. The gift may be a cookie or cookies.
