If you want to offer your customers the option of buying items in your store as gifts for other people, use the Gift Options field on the Checkout Settings tab of the Global Settings module in the Checkout & Registration Manager. From this section, you can enable this feature, set the price for gift-wrapping, and provide a text field for a gift message.

Enabling Gift Options allows shoppers to select the option with a checkbox at checkout. The price per item or per order is reflected (Gift Wrap my order for an additional charge of $X). If you elect to allow shoppers to include gift message, setting Gift Message option to Yes add a text area for the message.
