The problem

Appreciation gifts fail on the guess, not the gesture

The thank-you is sincere. The gift is a compromise: one item, one size, chosen to suit everyone and shipped to an office half the team never visits. It ends up in a drawer, and the message it was meant to carry goes with it.

The solution

Staff appreciation gifts in three moves

You set the amount and write the note. Everything after that belongs to the person receiving it.

Let them choose

One amount opens the whole catalog: gift cards, curated physical gifts and custom swag. Each person picks one thing, or splits it across two or three.

Nobody gets a size they do not wear.

Make it local

Gift links work in 150+ countries and pay out in local currency, so the thank-you in Manila is spent in Manila, at brands people there already know.

Send it the same week

Schedule it for the morning of the day, or send it the minute the quarter closes. The link arrives by email or text, with your note on it.

The thank-you lands while the work is still fresh.

Questions

Employee appreciation gift questions

What are good employee appreciation gifts?

The ones people would have picked for themselves. A budget they can spend across 4,500+ gift card brands, 1,988 curated products and custom swag suits a whole team better than any single item, because everyone gets their own size, taste and country. Ideas by budget are further up this page.

How much should we spend on staff appreciation gifts?

Most teams spend between $25 and $100 per person. Under $50 suits a quarterly thank-you; $100 and up suits the end of a big year. On Gifted the gift budget is the whole bill.

Is there a fee to send employee appreciation gifts?

There is no platform fee, no per-user fee and no minimum. You pay the face value of the gifts you send. ACH and wire are free, credit card is 3%, international FX is 5%.

Can people outside the US receive them?

Yes. Gift links work in 150+ countries and pay out in local currency, with gift card brands chosen for each country, so someone in Berlin and someone in Bengaluru both get something they can use.

Can we add our logo and our own message?

Yes. Write the note once, in your own words, and add your branding. Every gift goes out with it, by email or text.

What happens if someone never opens their gift?

You get the money back. 100% within 72 hours, and 75% up to two years.

How is this different from Employee Appreciation Day?

Employee Appreciation Day is one date, the first Friday in March. Appreciation gifts work on any day: the end of a quarter, a launch, a hard month. The same link and the same catalog cover both.
