XCrave.com Announces Site Revamp, Adds Tribute Offering

CYBERSPACE—Social wishlist site XCrave.com announces a site revamp. In conjunction with a re-skinning of the site, XCrave now offers fans the ability to send their favorite performers and models gift cards through the e-commerce site.

“Beta-testing XCrave’s social wishlist means we have been able to respond quickly to requests for new options and upgrades, by both models and their fans,” said XCrave President and CEO Michael Craven. “Upgrading the front page navigation and integrating a Pinterest-like setup in each profile, so they can showcase their wishlist, is a big part of that revamp. And now, in addition for models to make commissions on the gifts their fans purchase, without the worry of chargebacks and privacy violations like some other adult wishlist sites have experienced, fans can now directly send gift cards as tribute.”

Similar “adult wishlist” setups, which offer a way for entertainers to receive gifts from their fans and supporters from their personally curated list of items, have recently experienced a high rate of chargebacks. The ultimate downside of this is where the entertainer, after receiving a high-ticket item as a gift, often also experiences a request from the wishlist site to return the item when there has been a chargeback.

XCrave’s social wishlist setup protects the privacy of the entertainer’s shipping address, and also mitigates chargebacks by including a verification system, which forces the fan to prove that he or she is indeed the person making the purchase. This makes it difficult for them to later file it as a fraudulent charge on their card; as a result, purchases are guaranteed, and the entertainer doesn’t have to worry about being asked to return their gift.

In addition to state-of-the-art privacy settings and chargeback protections, XCrave’s social wishlist setup also offers something extra for entertainers: the ability to be their own affiliate marketers. Not only can models and performers suggest their wishlist of preferred and favorite items to their fans, they can also earn a percentage of the sale as a commission, making XCrave’s mission statement of “Get Gifts, Make Money” a reality, and allowing celebrities to double their pleasure: once when they receive their gift, and then again when they receive their commission payment.

Models, performers, and other entertainers and public figures are invited to apply to test the newest upgrade offered by the e-commerce site and start receiving gifts and commissions. Those interested in signing up for XCrave’s social wishlist setup may apply by clicking here.
