Culver City, CA, April 29,
2002. Dreamtime Baby (www.DreamtimeBaby.com),
a leading retailer of products for baby, children and mothers, today launches a
new Baby registry designed to simplify the gift giving process and the
registration of expensive gifts.
Customers can set up a
registry from Dreamtime Baby’s website using convenient add-to-registry
buttons. Friends can then visit the
registry and make a purchase. All
purchases are automatically removed from the list to eliminate duplicate
gifts. Gift givers who are not online
can call a toll-free number. The registry
can be used for a variety of occasions, from baby showers to birthdays and
takes the guesswork out of gift buying.
Unlike conventional gift
registries, Dreamtime Baby offers a unique patented partial purchase feature,
which allows a partial contribution to be made towards any gift. The system automatically tracks
contributions, and completes the order only when the full price of the gift
price has been collected. This way the
cost of expensive gifts can be conveniently shared.
“This system makes it really
easy to register a top of the line stroller or car sear, something that is
beyond the budget of a single gift giver,” says Mike Laiken, Owner. “Friends and family can then come in on
their own and each make a contribution.
It makes group gifts convenient and fun. You can actually watch the contributions being made in real-time
as people come in and make their contributions.”
The Dreamtime Baby registry
also contains many other useful features such as an on-line photo album, RSVP
service and E-notification system. For
example, you can use the online photo album to share pictures with friends,
both before and after the baby shower.
Send messages to friends using the E-notification system. Each registry comes with a free announcement
page where the arrival of a new baby can be announced. To maintain privacy, you can limit registry
access to friends and family using an optional guest password.
Dreamtime Baby selected
Felicite.com (http://www.felicite.com), to develop and operate its gift registry
system. Felicite.com is a leading
provider of private label gift registry systems for on-line and off-line
merchants. Its system can be quickly
integrated with a merchant’s retail store, web site or mail order operations,
and has a number of unique features such as partial purchase (patent pending).
“We liked the extra features
offered by the Felicite.com system, such as partial purchase and photo
album. The easy to use interface makes
the gift registry process more convenient for our customers. Felicite.com was also able to integrate their
system with our Oracle Netledger backend by means of an XML interface, which
streamlined our order processing,” says Mike Laiken.
