Abstract: Systems and methods for creating gift messages for sending to individuals via an existing messaging infrastructure are described. A gift provider system may receive a request for a gift catalog from a first user device. The gift provider system may provide an interactive gift catalog to the first user device that includes one or more gift cards available for purchase. The user of the first user device may select the amount of the gift card, create a personalized message for the gift card, select a recipient, and select graphics that may accompany the gift card. The gift provider system may create a gift message based on the purchased gift card and send the gift message to the recipient. The gift message may be sent as an MMS message and may include one or more codes that the recipient can use to redeem the gift card with a providing merchant.

Abstract: A messaging device receives configuration information from a configuration device. The messaging device identifies application configuration information, associated with a first user device, based on the configuration information and sends the application configuration information to the first user device for configuring a messaging application on the first user device. The messaging device receives an incoming message, including message information, from the messaging application on the first user device. The messaging device identifies, based on the message information and the configuration information, a second user device and a message format associated with the second user device. The messaging device sends, in the message format associated with the second user device, an outgoing message, based on the message information and the configuration information, to the second user device.
