Swych Expands International Footprint into $698B Global Gifting Market, U.S. Users Can Now Send Instant Digital Gift Cards to Friends and Family in India

Following its recent acquisition of GiftCardsIndia, digital gifting platform Swych has launched the trusted and widely used gift card service in the United States for instant cross border gifting to India. Swych users in the U.S. are now able to send personal digital gift cards instantly to friends and family across India and choose from hundreds of well-known and popular, locally relevant retailers such as Big Bazaar, Flipkart, Myntra, and more. This expansion significantly increases Swych's mobile gifting capabilities on an international scale and marks the first step in the company's global plan to facilitate mobile gifting for users across borders worldwide.

CEO and Founder of Swych, Deepak Jain, said "By launching GiftCardsIndia.com in the U.S., we are addressing a large market demand from the Indian diaspora here. Now anyone can easily send their favorite gift card from their mobile phone to their loved one's mobile phone in India. The process takes less than 30 seconds, the gift is delivered instantly and is guaranteed to be perfect because the recipient can 'swych' it for another retailer they prefer, making sure they can always get exactly what they want, when they want it."

The global gifting market is estimated to be worth USD $698 billion with India expected to be one of the largest markets by 2024. Swych endeavors to tackle the existing issues within this growing market, allowing users not only the convenience of digital gift cards, but also the freedom to "swych" or select an alternate gift card from an extensive list of brand options. The current cross-border gifting options for consumers are limited, including direct money transfer, plastic gift cards from limited brands, or sending perishables or flowers from local gifting firms that may or may not arrive on time. With Swych, gifting is instant. With a growing list of nearly 500 retailers — from Big Bazaar to Zappos — today's launch of Swych GiftCardsIndia adds even more retailers to the Swych network. Swych gifts can also be split into multiple gifts, or re-gifted to another recipient. Transactions are highly secure and free of fees; users only need a valid mobile number in order to send gifts, making the process of gifting seamless and accessible.

Jain added, "Existing cross-border gifting options are either costly or inefficient. When sending cross-border gifts, consumers and businesses need to manage liability, foreign exchange and customs, as well as regulatory and compliance issues which are complex and time consuming. We're proud to offer our users a convenient, secure, and fee-free alternative to this emerging ecosystem, all while simultaneously working to facilitate ease of accordance with changing regulatory and compliance requirements."

Swych has pioneered the creation of globally "swychable" digital gifts that integrate seamlessly within mobile banking, messaging, conversational commerce, rebate, check disbursement, and loyalty platforms to drive customer acquisition and increase engagement. Swych is focused on fostering global connections between retailers, customers, and businesses in order to create an autonomous global gifting network.

Swych also offers a gifting app within the U.S. domestic market which is available for download on iOS and Android. GiftCardsIndia also offers a gifting service within the Indian domestic market which is available at http://www.giftcardsindia.in. For more information, please visit http://www.goswych.com.

De Agostini ModelSpace to Release New Star Wars X-wing Model in August 2018

Award-winning De Agostini ModelSpace announces the release of their newest build-your-own scale model magazine series: the iconic Red Five X-wing*, Luke Skywalker's legendary starfighter, available at https://www.model-space.com/us/build-star-wars-x-wing-model.html

This Disney-approved and officially licensed 1:18 scale model of the starfighter Skywalker piloted to victory in the original Star Wars movie has been painstakingly created and is supplied in kit form for self-assembly. Each component of the engines, weapons, cockpit, wings—every last element—is captured in precise detail. It is constructed over an internal metal armature, supplied in sections and screwed together to form the ship's reinforced frame. External panels made of high-impact ABS, pre-finished with Red Five's distinctive markings and battle damage are fitted over top of the frame. Continue reading.

It's not just the exterior that's superbly detailed. The cockpit, torpedo bay, engines and removable hyperdrive unit are all faithfully rendered, bringing incredible realism to features that have only previously been seen in illustrations. Additionally, inside the model are motors to make the "S-foil" wings open to their distinctive "X" attack configuration, plus lighting systems that highlight the engines, laser cannons, and cockpit instruments. There's also a miniature R2-D2 astromech droid, complete with turning head and light-up displays, which can be removed to stand on its own, or be fitted into a socket behind the cockpit. For those who want even greater realism, a comprehensive customizing guide, showing how to add authentic weathering and markings will be included.

The fully assembled model extends 29.3 inches in length and stands 7.4 inches tall with a wingspan of 25.7 inches. The model is designed to be displayed in three different ways: poised on its three landing legs, on a desk stand in low-level "flight" mode, or mounted on a wall bracket that enables the ship to be positioned spiraling through space. In all cases, the model's wings, light-up engines and cannons are fully activated by remote control.

Star Wars fans can also opt for the Premium subscription which includes exclusive 1:18 scale hangar accessories to create a detailed display of the X-wing including Luke Skywalker pilot figure that slots into the X-wing's cockpit, working landing lights, a fuel pump, ground crewmen figurines and more.

De Agostini ModelSpace created this Lucasfilm officially licensed grand, fully vetted 1:18 scale model of Red Five to include all the internal details and mechanisms. Because Lucasfilm changed the official size of the X-wing in the years since the release of the original film to ensure greater consistency with the newer movies, De Agostini ModelSpace pulled from multiple sources during its exacting construction process to create the most realistic and complete model of the starfighter. These sources include the original filming miniatures, as well as stills of the full-size X-wing that was constructed on set for live-action sequences showing Skywalker boarding the ship, flying off, and returning. Close-ups of Skywalker and other members of the squadron were shot on another small set depicting only the interior of the cockpit, and images of this set provided source material for features that didn't appear on the filming miniatures, including the landing legs and cockpit instrumentation, controls, and seating. Finally, features such as the torpedo bay, engines, and hyperdrive are based on detailed cross-section illustrations created in the 1990s.

Build Your Own X-wing is sent directly to the modeler from De Agostini ModelSpace in 25 monthly shipments of $64.99 plus shipping and handling, with all the parts needed to complete the model. The Premium subscription, featuring the special diorama collectible to show off the completed X-wing, will be available for $74.99.

Each monthly shipment includes 4 beautifully designed magazines with detailed build guides that lead the modeler step-by-step through the construction process. Each magazine, packed with rare photos and little-known information, details how Industrial Light & Magic's skilled designers, model makers, digital artists, and set builders created the real props and miniatures that brought the films to life. Also included are rare images and features about the X-wing and the other starfighters of the Star Wars galaxy, and the stories of their intrepid pilots in action that are at the heart of this gripping saga.

Every subscriber who completes the collection will receive three free gifts including a magazine storage binder, two X-wing bookends, and a USB powerbank.

The X-wing 1:18 scale model is the latest in De Agostini ModelSpace's Build-your-own Star Wars collectible scale models. Other kits include the Award-Winning Millennium Falcon and R2-D2.
