Pros and cons
Pros
- Prices start at £2.99, one of the lowest entry points in the 90 brands ranked on this measure.
- Shipping costs £0, so the entry price is close to what a basket costs at checkout.
- Personalization is available, so names, messages and photos can go onto a gift before it ships.
- Next day delivery is available, which most shops in the 48.7% group without it cannot match.
- Support covers email, chat and phone, more channels than the 30.7% share of comparable shops.
Cons
- The range is narrower than CEWE, which lists gift boxes, personalized and photo gifts including photo gifts and gift cards.
- Next day delivery is not universal across the GB market, so a late order may not arrive in time.
- Returns run for 30 days, a short window compared with gift shops that allow longer.
- Support relies on email, chat and phone with no in-person option, so problems are handled entirely online and by phone.
Who it suits
- UK shoppers ordering a personalized card or small gift box for a birthday or thank you.
- Buyers on a budget who would rather pay £2.99 than the higher entry points of CEWE or Bourbon Concierge.
- Anyone with a deadline who needs next day delivery inside GB.
Who should look elsewhere
- Photo-led gift orders, where CEWE covers more formats with gift boxes, personalized and photo gifts.
- Shoppers who want a wider catalogue of experience gifts, the kind Jochen Schweizer lists with gift boxes and gift cards.
- Buyers after a spirits-led hamper range, since Bourbon Concierge pairs gift boxes and personalized with a different shelf.
What it does well
The core of the shop is personalization. You can add names, wording or a message to a card, a gift box or another item before it leaves, which is the reason most people arrive at a shop like this one. The catalogue runs to gift boxes, personalized and cards, so a plain card and a boxed gift can be bought from the same place rather than from two shops. Speed is the second draw. Next day delivery is available, which matters for birthdays, weddings and thank you gifts that have to land on a set day. Across the wider comparison only 60% of personalized gift shops offer the same, so the timing is the differentiator rather than the price alone. Returns are straightforward. You have 30 days to send something back, which is long enough to cover a gift that arrives damaged or not quite right, and shorter than the windows at some larger chains. Support sits behind the order: email, chat and phone are all listed, so a question about a message on a card can be raised by phone, chat, email or through the help centre without waiting for a reply in writing.
Pricing
The shop is a one-off purchase rather than a plan, so there is no introductory rate that quietly rises at renewal. Nothing renews and nothing is billed again. What you see is what you pay, which removes the single most common surprise in gifting: a cheap entry price that becomes a recurring commitment. Gifts start at £2.99, which puts MoreThisWay low down the price table. Out of 90 brands ranked on entry price, it sits at 17, and the gift category it competes in is drawn from 85 brands. The low starting point reflects the product mix: cards sit at the bottom of the range and boxed gifts sit above them. Delivery is £0 on top, so a card order for £2.99 arrives at close to that figure with nothing further to add. There is no membership fee, no deposit to recover and no renewal charge to plan around, which makes the running cost of a gift exactly the amount on the product page. Against the alternatives, the trade-off is range for price. Jochen Schweizer lists gift boxes and gift cards and prices experience gifts rather than low-cost stationery, while Bourbon Concierge pairs gift boxes and personalized at a higher ticket. CEWE spans gift boxes, personalized and photo gifts, so it covers more formats but sits well above £2.99 at the bottom end.
Who runs it
MoreThisWay is a young, small operation rather than a division of a large retailer. It was founded in 2023, and the business behind the shop is Lumean Ltd. The headquarters sits in the United Kingdom, which puts the company inside the same market it sells to. The shop is built for a single market. Delivery covers GB, so the next day promise, the £0 shipping charge and the 30 days return window all apply inside that market and not outside it. There is no second region listed, which keeps the pricing simple but rules out sending a gift abroad through the site. Support is the strongest part of the operation relative to its size. You can reach the team on email, chat and phone, so an urgent question about a personalisation detail can be resolved by phone rather than held over email. That matters here because a wrong name on a card cannot be fixed after dispatch. The trading entity is named in the terms of use, which means the contract you accept is with a specific company rather than with a trading name, and the terms also set out the 30 days return window. The trust part of the score, 8.1, sits below the cost and offer parts at 9.6 and 9.4, which fits a business of this age with a narrow market footprint.

Frequently asked questions
What does the cheapest gift cost and what do I pay on top for delivery?+
Gifts start at £2.99, which is where the card end of the range begins. Delivery is £0, so there is no delivery charge to add at checkout. A one-off purchase means nothing renews and there is no second bill later.
Can I personalize a gift before it is sent?+
Yes. Personalization is offered across the range, so you can add a name, a message or similar detail to a card or a gift box before dispatch. The catalogue covers gift boxes, personalized and cards, and a change of heart after ordering is worth raising quickly, since a printed message cannot be altered once the item is made up.
Is next day delivery actually available?+
Next day delivery is available, and that puts MoreThisWay with the 60% share of personalized gift shops that offer it. Ordering close to a deadline is the main reason to pick this shop over a slower one. Keep an eye on the cut-off for the day you order.
How long do I have to return a gift?+
Returns are accepted for 30 days from delivery, which gives time to spot a damaged box or a personalisation mistake. Personalised items are the awkward case, so check the details at checkout rather than after it ships. Support is available on email, chat and phone if something arrives wrong.
Does MoreThisWay ship outside the UK?+
No. Delivery covers GB only, so the shop is a single market service and the £0 shipping charge applies inside it. An overseas recipient needs a different route, since there is no second region listed here.
Who runs the shop and can I reach a person?+
The site is operated by Lumean Ltd, which was founded in 2023 and is based in the United Kingdom. Help is offered on email, chat and phone, so a phone call is possible as well as email or chat. That suits an urgent question about a card message better than a written-only service.
Is MoreThisWay a subscription and does the price rise later?+
It is a one-off gift shop rather than a plan, so there is no introductory rate, no renewal price and nothing billed automatically. You pay the product price plus £0 shipping, once. That makes it easier to budget than a club that reprices after the first period.
How does it compare with bigger personalized gift shops?+
The range is narrower than CEWE, which lists gift boxes, personalized and photo gifts including photo gifts and gift cards, but the entry point is lower at £2.99 with £0 shipping. Against Jochen Schweizer, which lists gift boxes and gift cards, the difference is gift type rather than price. MoreThisWay covers gift boxes, personalized and cards and stays in the UK.
