Spot Gift

Spot lets you send a real cafe treat to a friend without leaving your texts.

You're already in the conversation — "rough week?", "thanks for covering me", "happy birthday." Spot turns that moment into something they can actually use. Pick a drink from a local cafe, wrap it, and it goes off as a sealed gift right in the thread.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Open Spot from the apps row in Messages.
2. Pick a treat from a participating local cafe — a matcha, a latte, a cold brew. The drink is the gift, funded at its real menu price.
3. Add a stamp (Birthday, Thanks, Congrats) and a note if you want, then send.
4. It arrives in the thread as a sealed gift to peel open.

WHEN THEY OPEN IT
They tap to unwrap, confirm it's them with a quick text code, and the gift card drops into Apple Wallet. They show it at the counter and order. They can spot you one back with a tap.

NOT ON IPHONE? STILL WORKS
No account to create — confirming is a single text code. Off iPhone, the same gift opens on the web with a scannable code.

WHY PEOPLE LIKE IT
- It lives where the moment happens: your text thread.
- The gift is a drink, not a number — you spot a matcha, not "$5."
- It supports real neighborhood cafes.
- Lands in Apple Wallet (or a web code), ready at the counter.

WHERE IT WORKS
Starting with local cafes in the Bay Area, with more shops joining.
