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.

    Date: Dec 27 2022
    Summary

    Overall, I'm very happy with my experience! I have a great gift card I will use for travel, and the customer support team has been super helpful & kind.

    Positive

    I was very happy with the selection of gift card options from things like media streaming companies, e-commerce like Amazon, or travel partners. It was hard to choose which one I wanted to select! It's also helpful that you can break up large amounts across different gift card redemption options.

    Negative

    I'd like to see something like a Visa gift card option for in-store purchases that aren't available.

    Fast and effective engagement tool

    Date: Dec 06 2022
    Summary

    As above this is highly useful in a work from home context. As more of us now are remote we like digital rewards with tangible results and that's what you get with Guusto.

    Positive

    It is essentially on demand. There are no lags between issuing and redeeming, with partner options that would cater to seemingly anyone. No waiting for confirmation or shipping; teams can recognise and reward employees easily. Works very well in a remote working context but just as appreciated by employees on site.

    Negative

    There aren't many to speak of. If I had feedback on optimisation it would be to filter the redemption items by geo - a lot of the restaurant options I saw were not available in my area.

    Excellent app for gift giving! 10/10

    Date: Mar 02 2022
    Summary

    In general, I would definitely recommend Guusto. It is quick and efficient to use and there are so many options for gift cards. As a gifter, I would recommend checking out which retailer gift cards there are to see if there are options that your organization would like.

    Positive

    The user interface is nice and easy to navigate, nice friendly color scheme, and is a digital gift share platform for those you care about. Last but not least, I can choose from a huge variety of retailer stores with the funds I have.

    Negative

    No negative feedback to give at this time. I don't think there's anything I do not like about Guusto.

    Best Employee Recognition Tool Hands Down

    Date: Mar 24 2022
    Summary

    Hands down the best experience I had with employee incentives. A lot of time you may win something you'll will never use. That isn't the case here.

    Positive

    Everything really. Really easy to use and simple to navigate through all of the options. On the topic of options there were so many to choose from so even the employee who would be hard to shop for should be able to find something on there.

    Negative

    Can't say there were really any cons. If I had to choose one thing to make it even better it would be to keep expanding those options.

    Simple solution

    Date: Nov 23 2022
    Summary

    Guusto is saving time to provide a valuable resource in rewarding others. It is the gift of options without needing to spend time searching for options. It saves time and increases productivity knowing there is an incredible reward at the end.

    Positive

    Guusto provided a very simple solution for providing rewards. It has a wide variety of options available for each individual to choose from. It makes it simple to gift a number of options without needing to spend time sourcing them.

    Negative

    There is nothing to dislike about this service. It is easy to setup a new account and loads automatically. Being able to search by category would be a useful option but provides a wide variety of options.
