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.

    Simplicity is always nice with technology

    Date: Jan 20 2023
    Summary

    The experience that I have had personally with Guusto has been incredible. I have used others in the past but nothing is more user friendly and simple to solve this remote work situation that we as the world will continue to live with.

    Positive

    Guusto was very simple to use from step one. They even offered a training video within our company, but no one in my group had to review it. After a few short steps, it was automatically loaded, and I could use my Guusto gift to have some incredible food delivered to my front door by Uber Eats. Thanks, Guusto!

    Negative

    There weren't many aspects of the product that I see as negative. The only aspect that was a bit confusing was that Uber auto-selected the payment method but did not precisely notify me. A deeper integration showing the -$35 card would have been nice for clarification.

    Easy to use without point system

    Date: Mar 23 2023
    Summary

    This is a great program to reward and recognize employees, and it is simple and easy to use.

    Positive

    Guusto is easy to use. It does not have a point system like other employee rewards and recognition apps, which simplifies peer-to-peer shoutouts. There are many gift cards to choose from and easy to redeem.

    Negative

    It's not a big issue, but if you want to reward international employees, you would have to send a gift in US dollars, and an international recipient needs to convert it to their own currency.

    Lots of options to choose from - great recognition program!

    Date: Jan 19 2023
    Summary

    A great new way of gifting employees - especially now as organizations evolve and more work remotely, connecting digitally is important and to be able to show recognition in a quick and efficient manner is also critical.

    Positive

    I like how fast and convenient this app is. The claim process is quick and easy. You simply browse for the gift of choice and the gift card comes within seconds. It also allows you to choose multiple gift cards and at different values which provides lots of flexibility. The app keeps track of all the digital gift card but you can also save into your digital wallet (Google Pay).

    Negative

    No dislike - only thing I can think of is that there are a few too many options on my home screen. As a user who's only claiming for gift, I can probably have some options excluded so my dashboard is cleaner.

    Date: Apr 05 2023
    Summary

    Seems like a great positive and awarding program. Programs like this help build incentive in going outside of an employees realm.

    Positive

    I like that I can nominate my coworkers for awards. It is very nice and thoughtful of our company to use this site.

    Negative

    I am still a new user so there is nothing in particular that I don't like.
