Customer Designed Gift Cards For Christmas Now Available at mytego.com

Mytego.com tackles the monotony and traditional creativity straight-jackets in gift card giving by introducing a series of gift cards that are  designed by the gift giver, with any possibility of designs or graphics. Gift cards are then redeemable for custom tego skins for portable electronics at mytego.com. The gift cards take the form of a virtual gift card that can be emailed, or an actual plastic, credit-card style gift card that can be mailed. Virtual, customer-designed gift cards can be created right up to Christmas Eve only from mytego.com.

 

Online Retailers all across the continent are pushing hard to ring in at the register, while consumers are pushing to finally put down their credit card, and close their browser. The same problem always arises however, this late in the Christmas shopping game;  how do you get a cool online gift across the continent within the next few days up to Christmas, without paying more for shipping than the actual cost of the product itself? And, for those true last minute shoppers, how do they get something special right up to the end?

 

Many online vendors have created what are best-described as a "virtual" gift card - these are gift cards that are generated electronically when purchased by the customer online. The cards will then be emailed to the  purchaser or directly to the gift-recipient.

 

Mytego.com takes these virtual gift cards one step further from the traditional online retailer with the current offering, by providing the tools for each customer to actually design their own virtual gift card, with their own pictures and designs on it.  In essence, the purchaser can put a photo of themselves, or photographs or designs of significant personal event, people, things, etc. onto the actual gift card. Customers design their own virtual gift cards at mytego.com's unique online creative studio, that allows them to see their design while they are making it, in real time.

 

The mytego.com virtual gift cards are then used by the gift-recipient to design a personalized Tego skin for their own portable electronic device.  These customer-designed Tego skins allow the customer to completely re-design how their portable electronics look, by putting a full color image on top of such devices as cell phones, laptops, game systems, ipods, etc.

 

Mytego.com also offers the plastic credit-card style cards; these too can also be designed by the customer themselves.  With the virtual gift cards, available until the final last moments of Christmas shopping, the customer can then either email it to their favorite gift recipient, or print it out at home and put it into a Christmas stocking or under the tree as the final gift.

 

"Customer-designed gift cards are a natural fit for us", Doyle Buehler, President of Mytego begins. "We provide the ultimate in personalization and customization with our Tego skins for portable electronic devices". "It is very helpful for those people who understand and appreciate the uniqueness of personalization, but are not completely sure of what types of devices the gift recipient has". Buehler continues, "our customers are putting all kinds of pictures onto their gift cards - pictures of their pets, their friends, their travels, their families; our gift cards really allow people to clearly express themselves, with a real personalized gift".

 

The Customer-designed virtual gift cards are available to purchase up to and including Christmas Eve, for the culmination in last minute shopping. These are then emailed to the customer, or the gift-recipient. A variety of denominations are available to cover all categories of the mytego customer-designed personalized Tego skins, beginning at just over $10.
