Context#
Brands that ship gifts or kits to executives, partners, or VIP customers need a fast way to reuse approved addresses. Re-typing details slows teams and causes costly delivery mistakes.
What you can achieve with this use case#
- Store recipient lists per account (VIPs, partners, event attendees).
- Keep Billing = HQ and pick Shipping = recipient with one click.
- Auto-fill checkout to speed bulk or recurring orders.
How it looks in your store#
Checkout dropdown#
The buyer chooses a saved recipient from Select Address; fields auto-fill.
My Account → Address Book#
Cards for Shipping (recipients) and a separate Billing (HQ) with Make Primary.
Settings (Admin)#
Enable Billing/Shipping Address Book and the Address field on Checkout.
Real examples#
Corporate gifting#
Marketing saves executive addresses for year-end gifts. At checkout they pick the recipient and place the order in seconds.
Onboarding / event kits#
HR or Events teams keep approved addresses for new hires or speakers. Orders go out fast with fewer address errors.
VIP clients#
Luxury retail stores ship to a client’s home, PA office, or holiday house from a saved list, while billing stays at HQ.
Key benefits#
- Faster ordering: one-click address selection for repeat campaigns.
- Fewer delivery issues: consistent, approved addresses.
- Higher retention: smoother experience for VIP and corporate accounts.
Quick setup (admin)#
- Set Billing (HQ) as Primary.

Notes#
- Requires the customer to be logged in.
- If shipping rates depend on destination, totals recalculate after selection.
