What is Guusto?

Guusto empowers HR professionals to develop recognition initiatives aimed at enhancing retention among frontline employees.

In contrast to typical recognition services that mandate preloading and payment for all staff members, Guusto offers a complimentary single-user account that allows rewards to be sent to anyone.

Recipients have the flexibility to select their rewards from a vast array of global merchants.

The platform also provides various redemption formats, including web access, mobile applications, TV displays, and print options, ensuring that even deskless workers can participate.

Furthermore, Guusto operates without markups and contributes to social good by donating one day of clean water for every gift dispatched, thereby fostering a positive impact on communities.

This unique approach not only enhances employee engagement but also promotes corporate social responsibility simultaneously.

    Easy and fun way to send e-giftcards!

    Updated: Dec 21 2022
    Summary

    Guusto helped our HR department find an easy and accessible way to give back, reward and recognize their employees. It's a one-stop shop and simple way of sending and receiving gifts and can be a great motivational tool for many organizations.

    Positive

    Guusto is a quick, easy and fun way to recognize and reward colleagues. Setting up an account was fast and the interface is very user-friendly. There are a variety of common merchants to choose from such as Walmart, Starbucks and Amazon. The redemption process was simple and straight-forward. I look forward to the next time I get to use Guusto.

    Negative

    The only downside I can think of from using Guusto is when a particular merchant is not available in the Guusto program, but personally I have not dealt with this issue.

    Date: Jan 14 2022
    Summary

    Big thanks to my organization for working with Guusto and giving us a little bump during a tough time - it's the little things that count :)

    Positive

    I received a Guusto gift card from my organization and it was the ultimate boost that I was needing! It shows employees that they are cared about and valued (regardless of the amount.. it makes an impact)! It was fun and easy to set up.

    Negative

    I'm not sure if I have many cons. Maybe that I'd like to see more gift card options as the platform grows?

    Super easy and fun online gift card service!

    Date: Feb 10 2022
    Summary

    My overall experience with Guusto was great. I'm looking forward to using their service again as well as sending gifts to others is much easier!

    Positive

    I have never heard of Guusto until I received my first gift card from them. SO MANY merchants to choose from and super easy to navigate! This is definitely the new way of sending gift cards without even having to pick a specific retailer; the gift recipient chooses where they'd like to spend their gift card. It is a very happy moment accepting the gift card and scrolling through so many different retailers or restaurants trying to make the best pick. This is how I will be sending gift cards from now on!

    Negative

    Fortunately, I loved everything. It wouldn't hurt to add even more merchants to choose from, but that may make the decision-making process much harder when trying to pick a place to redeem the card.

    Date: Nov 21 2022

    Guusto is an easy peasy way to send gift card to a friend, family or colleague. It gives the liberty to the receiver to choose where and how to redeem the gift card!

    Negative

    So far, nothing. But I can see it might be a bit challenging to register on the website for some elderly users. I'm not sure if you guys have a video tutorial?

    It helps me organize and document my gift purchases and redeems. This is a must for companies issuing incentives to their employees.

    Negative

    None. At times it may be slow. But maybe it is due to my mobile data. But generally using my home wifi it is fast. Although there is a lot of merchants already, but it can expand to many industries that would be awesome!

    The problem it is solving is how do you find a solution for every person. This solves the problem allowing each person to choose what is best for them.
