Date 08/11/2017

Gilt is an app that offers limited-time discounts on designer brands. More than 9 million users joined Gilt and the app can be accessed by anyone, anytime, free of charge.

Built-in "color" camera 

The ability to search automatically for apparel that matches the clothing you own is one of the greatest Gilt features.

The built-in "color" camera tool allows iPhone users to detect the color of an item of clothing they like and then can search on Gilt.com for pieces of clothing of similar colors.

This a good example of using the mobile tools in a creative and useful manner.

Time-sensitive sales

Mobile marketing is a major part of the Gilt business, more than 25 percent of its overall revenue comes from mobile selling. 

The innovation brought by Gilt is that offers users time-sensitive sales.

These flash sales make people want to buy fast before the offer expire. They see the offer in a small window and can purchase the item at a discounted price. That's why the user who buys from his smartphone has a considerable advantage when it comes to shopping wherever he is. 

In the near future, Gilt will add more mobile-exclusive features. When it comes to glasses shopping, will offer a feature that allows you to take a picture of yourself and superimpose with an image with the glasses you want to buy. With this innovative features, the apps try to decrease the numbers of refunds.
