The first step for purchasing a gift is to fill out this form. At the moment, purchasing classes and memberships for others is a manual process, so we will follow up with you to confirm the details of your selection and collect your payment info.
We will send you, the buyer, a PDF gift card for the specific item(s) you choose to give. The e-card includes a custom coupon code, registration link, and instructions for your recipient. Your recipient will then sign themselves up for the class or membership with their own name and email address.
Note that this is different than a traditional gift certificate, as the recipient does not see a set dollar amount. The coupon lets them sign up for free to a membership or a certain number of classes.
Yes. Gifts are valid for the upcoming season only. This is because our offerings may change from season to season. Membership gifts expire when our enrollment window closes (at the beginning of each season). Class gifts expire on the day of the last class of the season. Expiration dates will be indicated on the recipients’ ecard.
Our Cooking Club membership is based on a three-month season, and each season includes 6 classes.
If you gift a recurring subscription, your recipient will have ongoing access to Chicca’s Cooking Club, and your credit card will be charged every three months until you cancel. If you gift a one-time seasonal membership, your recipient gets one free season and then can choose whether to cancel the membership after three months or start paying the subscription themselves.
No, we do not contact your recipient about their gift directly. You, as the buyer, will receive an email receipt and a PDF e-card to pass on to your recipient. Once gifted, the recipient will sign themselves up on our website and that’s when they’ll start receiving email communication from us.
