Giving the choice of gifts with our Team Gifting Platform

22/3/2023

Spring… what a wonderful time, except if you’re knee-deep in spreadsheets and searches for gifts or branded merchandise that everyone in your team will love. Yep, organising gifts and merchandise that your employees will cherish and use can equal a big headache. 

At least that was the case. Our Team Gifting Platform has landed to make buying bespoke, ethical gifts for teams of all sizes nice and simple. Here’s how the platform will make your job easier and a quick guide to using it. 

Why you (and your team) will love the gifting platform

The gift of choice

Whether there’s 20 or 200 of you, your team’s tastes and dietary requirements are no doubt diverse, from living a vegan lifestyle to not drinking alcohol. The Team Gifting Platform makes it easy to cater to everyone. Curate a bespoke selection of our hampers, gifts and merchandise, which your team can then view and pick from. 

Say so long to address spreadsheets

If you’ve ever felt the pain of collating a mountain of addresses, you’ll be pleased to know recipients input their own on the Team Gifting Platform. As well as time-saving, this is handy for complying with GDPR rules. It’s also great at Christmas time, when your team might want to receive their gift away from home.

Gifts that reflect your values and theirs

Every gift on the platform has a positive impact. We exclusively stock social enterprise brands, who are tackling society’s big issues with their quality products.

How the Team Gifting Platform works

Sign up and login

Creating an account takes seconds. We just need to know basic details about you and your business.

Build your gift list

Once you’re logged in, you can start building a gift list for your team to choose from. Filter our product range by category, such as hampers, non-alcoholic drinks and bath and beauty (to name just a few!). And you can filter by price too. 

Add as many gifts as you like to the list for recipients to pick from and personalise with your company logo, an image and a note, which they’ll see when they open the gift list.

Send your gift list

Once you’re happy with your gift list, it’s time to let your team pick their presents. There are two ways to send the list. Either send the same public link to all of your team individually or invite them via email in one go, by pasting a list of email addresses into our Platform. The latter is perfect if you have lots of giftees, with each person receiving a link that’s unique to them. 

Recipients then fill in their details, including where they’d like us to send the gift, ready for you to approve their choices. 

View the impact of your gifting

As your team selects gifts, we keep a tally of the positive impact you’re creating. Login and check your personal dashboard to see your unique impact across several social impact areas, from hours of employment for disadvantaged people to materials saved from waste.
