How each one works
Seed works from the recipient's side. The buyer company hands out printed cards, and each card carries one code like KRMH-7P2X. Every recipient opens one permanent shared link, enters the code, picks one gift from a curated set with no prices shown, and types their own address. A real $0 order lands in the merchant's Shopify admin, and the code dies on use. Budgets and gift levels are set per company, codes are tracked with a CSV export, and codes can auto-mint from a paid Shopify order. A Danish gift retailer, OnlyByGrace, runs the whole flow in Danish.
Send To Many is an order tool. You give it a spreadsheet of recipients, it validates the addresses, and it creates the child orders. A shopper can also send to several people in one transaction, with a gift note for each. The person placing the order decides what each recipient gets, so recipients themselves do not choose.
When to pick Send To Many
- You already hold every recipient's address and want one bulk import.
- You need to decide each recipient's product yourself.
- Your volume is small and uneven. The Pay As You Go plan has no monthly fee, and the first 25 child orders each month are free.
- You want the larger review base: 28 reviews at 5.0 against Seed's 3.
When to pick Seed
- You do not have the addresses and do not want to collect them. Each recipient types their own.
- The company wants recipients to choose their own gift from a curated set.
- You want printed one-time codes and one permanent link, with code tracking and a CSV.
- You want a flat monthly price. Seed does not bill per order, while Send To Many's Pro plan runs $250 a month before overage.
- You need the recipient flow in another language.
What Seed does not do
- Seed does not take an address list from the buyer. The recipient types their own address, so it does not fit a buyer who already has every address in a spreadsheet.
- Seed has no multi-address checkout where one shopper pays and ships to many people in one cart.
- Seed has 3 App Store reviews. That is a small sample next to the review counts above.
