Why a Bulk Christmas gift card program makes sound business sense.

Are you looking for a convenient, cost-effective employee holiday gift solution for your business? Perhaps you like the idea of bulk Christmas gifts but want to ensure that your gifts are thoughtful and meaningful enough to be appreciated. After all, your employees are a crucial component in your business’ success — a bunch of generic or mass-produced gifts simply won’t cut it!

Bulk Christmas gift cards may be the solution you’ve been looking for. Digital gift cards are the ideal employee holiday gift solution in more ways than one — a digital gift card from a favorite retailer is bound to delight even the most discerning of recipients.

Don’t believe us? Let’s take a deeper look into why implementing a bulk Christmas gift card program makes good business sense and how you can get started with a digital gift card program just in time for the holiday season. 

Why are employee holiday gifts a good idea? 

Most employers would agree that their teams play a vital role in the overall success of their business. These days, more and more employers also realize the importance of employee satisfaction. In today’s tight and competitive job market especially, attracting and retaining top talent is increasingly important. 

One of the most effective ways to keep your teams satisfied is with the implementation of employee recognition and reward programs. Rewarding employees with something outside of their regular compensation and benefits has been shown to: 

• Increase morale, motivation, and engagement among teams
• Improve employer and employee relationships
• Incentivize positive work actions and behaviors 
• Reduce staff turnover volumes
• Improve sales and revenue

The holiday season is the perfect time to show appreciation to your valued employees. What better way to show appreciation and recognize a year’s worth of hard work than with a thoughtful employee gift? 

Offering recipients various gift choices 

Gift cards have long been a popular gift for employees and customers alike. However, not all businesses go a step further by offering their recipients a variety of gift cards. Most simply don’t have the time or resources to scout multiple physical gift cards during the busy end-of-year period.

The good news? Digital gift card platforms such as Runa make it easy to offer your recipients a variety of digital and prepaid gift cards from some of the world’s leading and most popular brands. Thanks to our single, powerful gift card API, your recipients can quickly and easily access the ideal gift choice. 

It’s truly never been easier to give your recipients the ultimate holiday gift — the gift of choice. What’s more, you’ll be saving your company untold time and resources in the process. What’s not to love?
