Say goodbye to generic swag and hello to Giftly Cards for corporate holiday gifting. Learn how to create memorable gifts that respect your budget and the environment.

The holiday season brings joy, celebration, time off and ... a corporate gifting headache. Picking out unique gifts for dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of employees, clients, or customers can be a massive challenge

That’s why many companies turn to digital gift cards. They’re more flexible and cost-effective than physical gifts. However, they don’t check all the boxes of a memorable employee gift.

Digital gift cards to major retailers like Amazon, Starbucks, or Walmart can come off impersonal because they don’t include a message or your organization’s branding. 

Plus, the gift will simply be disappointing if your recipient doesn’t shop there, or lives far away from one of the company’s locations, or if that brand doesn’t sell something your recipient wants.

The Giftly platform combines the freedom of choice with the thoughtfulness of a carefully chosen gift. A Giftly is a powerful way to connect with recipients at scale and create lasting positive impressions this holiday season, no matter how large your company is.

Giftly Contact Management For Simple, Personalized Bulk Gifting

Giftly's robust contact management system is the engine that powers effortless bulk gifting. It's designed to handle your entire recipient list, whether you're gifting to a small team or an entire corporation.

Here’s how it works.

Importing and Managing Recipient Lists

  • Add contacts one at a time for smaller, personalized lists
  • Bulk import via CSV for large-scale gifting

Our system intelligently captures and organizes recipient information, ensuring your database stays clean and up-to-date.

Best Practices for Corporate Holiday Gifting with Giftly

Make your holiday gifting campaign a success with these Giftly-powered best practices:

Plan Ahead

Begin planning at least two-three months early. Believe us, it sounds too soon, but the holidays sneak up on you fast. Between Q4 and end-of-year reports, time off, holiday parties, and the mad dash to make quotas, it’ll be time to send out gifts before you know it.

So, review your gifting policies early to make sure you’re distributing holiday cheer equitably. Then, set a budget. Remember it’s the personal touch, not the amount, that determines whether your gift is memorable.

Be Thoughtful

Use Giftly's contact management system to tailor your corporate gifts to different divisions, locations, or roles. 

Craft a nice message that thanks employees for everything they contributed to the company’s success that year. Your message might even suggest some different ways people can use the gift.

It’s also nice to provide an opportunity for direct managers and supervisors to include a message as well since they’ll likely know their direct reports better.

Time Your Delivery Strategically

Use Giftly's scheduled delivery to reach global recipients at appropriate times. You should also time your gifts to arrive when they'll stand out. You don’t want to overload people’s inboxes at the very busiest time of the year, or your thoughtful message will get lost in the shuffle.

Follow Up and Gather Feedback

Use Giftly’s reporting tools to see who opened their gift, sent thank yous, and redeemed their gift. The more engagement you get, the more likely your gift hit the mark.

Use that feedback to refine your future gifting strategies.
