SmartGift™ Helps Engage Remote Workers Seamlessly

Coming to the corporate gifting experience this holiday season, SmartGift allows business gifts to be sent to those working remotely, even if the recipient's address is unknown. This feature, which will be available through the company's white glove business gifting service, lets businesses notify recipients of pending gift arrivals using messaging applications such as email, SMS and LinkedIn. The recipient will be able to digitally unwrap and preview the gift, choose the delivery date and address, and swap it for another item, if preferred.

Customization Capabilities Make Each Gift One To Remember

With customization options for hangtags, ribbons, or cards, gifts can be visually enhanced with company branding. Businesses can also include their own literature with gift deliveries, making it easy to engage their associates and clients through a specially branded gift experience.
