Ah, Christmas – the most wonderful time of the year… unless you’re the lucky one tasked with finding meaningful gifts on a budget for a lot of people who you don’t really know. Oh, and the pressure of getting all delivered on time!
Then it’s the season of lists, panic buying, and desperately Googling “unique corporate gifts” at 2am.
But don’t worry – we’ve got you covered!
We know that finding the perfect Christmas gifts for your team or clients can feel like untangling a box of fairy lights: you start off full of hope, then quickly realise it’s more complicated than it looks.
When you want to impress key clients, whether your team is big or small, remote or in-office, this guide will help you find thoughtful, stress-free gifts that’ll leave your employees and clients feeling appreciated (without breaking the budget).
Before you panic-Google “best corporate Christmas gifts” for the hundredth time, take a look at our most frequently asked questions. We’re answering the things everyone wants to know – and sharing a few insider tips to help make your Christmas gifting as smooth as a shiny bauble.
What’s a Reasonable Christmas Gifting Budget Per Person?
A reasonable Christmas gifting budget per person typically falls between £40 and £75, depending on your goals, company culture, and who you’re gifting. Nobody expects a company car wrapped in a big red bow (although, wouldn’t that be nice?), but a bag of Haribo and a tap on the back doesn’t quite make the impression you’re looking for. Our festive gifts start from just £19.95 + VAT, with free UK delivery, so there are thoughtful options at every price point.
Some companies like to send luxury hampers to high-value clients or to be shared across a team, while others keep it simple yet meaningful. In the UK, many Christmas gifts under £50 may qualify as a tax-free trivial benefit, meaning they won’t count as a Benefit in Kind – so long as they meet HMRC’s criteria.
If your budget is tight, remember it’s not about the price when it comes to finding the perfect employee Christmas gifts – it’s the thought that counts.
A well-curated gift filled with treats that show you’ve considered your team’s tastes will always beat a generic pen set.
What Christmas Gifts Are Popular for Corporate Teams?
Popular Christmas gifts for corporate teams in 2025 strike the balance between thoughtful and practical. There’s nothing worse than receiving a gift that screams, “I have no idea what you like, so here’s something random!”. You want something that feels personal but not too personal (… maybe steer clear of monogrammed bathrobes 👀).
So, what works? Here are a few ideas that your team will love:
- Gift Hampers: Packed with gourmet snacks, beverages, and self-care goodies. Because who doesn’t love a bit of indulgence during the holidays? Plus, recipients like to share their gifts with family and friends spreading the goodwill from your company that little bit further!
- eGift cards: Ideal for giving people the power to choose something they genuinely want. Our eGift card collection features hundreds of the UK’s favourite brands. With less admin, eGift cards are a gamechanger.
- Tech Accessories: Wireless chargers, sleek earbuds, or a portable power bank.
- Experience-Based Gifts: Virtual cooking classes, online escape rooms, or wine tastings. It might feel like a throwback to lockdown, but gifting memories instead of stuff is always a popular choice.
- Self-Care Kits: With everyone feeling the end-of-year burnout, a wellbeing-themed gift shows you care and helps with some R&R over the busy festive season.

Should Corporate Christmas Gifts be Personalised?
Does everybody’s gift need to match?
It’s the modern day gifting equivalent of “Do I wear matching Christmas pyjamas for the family photo or go freestyle?“
Either way, it’s a big decision, but it doesn’t have to be!
Our self-service gift portals mean you can give the gift of choice. Your recipients can select from a variety of pre-agreed gifts, ensuring everyone gets something they love.
Our branded gift portals make it simple to offer personalised gifting options to your team or customers, providing a seamless and memorable experience.
What Are the Rules for Corporate Gifts?
There’s no rulebook, but you’d be surprised by how often this question comes up: “Are we allowed to give our team wine?”
The answer is usually yes, but it’s always a good idea to check your company’s internal policies first.
Some organisations have rules about alcohol, monetary gifts, or even the types of brands you can give.
How Do I Make Sure the Gifts Are Inclusive?
The last thing you want is to send gifts that don’t consider everyone’s backgrounds or preferences. It’s a diverse world, and your team might have varying dietary needs, religious beliefs, or lifestyle choices.
Here’s a quick checklist to keep things inclusive:
- Skip the Alcohol (or offer no alcohol options).
- Offer Dietary-Friendly Options: Gluten-free, halal, and vegan options are always a good idea.
- Cultural Sensitivity: Make sure your gift doesn’t unintentionally exclude someone. Not everyone celebrates Christmas, but appreciation is universal. Some clients use this season to say thank you for the hard work across the year.
We offer a range of dietary options, including no alcohol and vegan, halal or gluten-free gift items with all our festive gifts. By using our gift redemption pages, you can rest assured that your gifts are inclusive and respectful of everyone’s preferences.
What Are Some Unique Christmas Gifting Ideas?
You want to avoid being that person who hands out the same gift everyone received last year.
Christmas can be a time to get creative and have fun. We’ve got you covered with some gift ideas:
- Themed Gifts: Why not go for a cosy ‘Winter Warmers’ theme with hot chocolate, traditional festive treats, and a candle?
- Games and Puzzles: Gifts with a selection of fun challenges, puzzles and games that challenge the mind and encourage critical thinking. It’s a fun way to keep your team entertained.
- Charitable Gifts: Donate to a cause on behalf of your team members. Many people appreciate a gift that gives back.
Our bespoke Gift Builder makes it easy to curate unique and branded gifts that resonate and wow your team or clients. Explore a wide selection of festive items, wellness gifts, branded merchandise, gourmet treats, and customisable packaging options.
You can build and save quotes for one-of-a-kind gifts that perfectly match your brand and your recipients’ tastes. Whether you want it delivered immediately or stored with us for later dispatch, we’ve got you covered!

Can I Put My Company Logo on the Gift?
Branding is important! But with gifting, we’ve found subtlety is key.
While it’s great to have your company logo featured, your Christmas gifts won’t have the same impact if they look like corporate billboards.
Consider branding elements that are stylish and subtle – think a classy logo on a notebook or a branded flask that’s cool enough to take outside the office.
Another option is adding your branding to gift packaging. Customised sleeves for our gifts are a popular choice for those looking to add their logo without overwhelming the whole gift.
How Long Will It Take to Get the Gifts?
Timing is everything when it comes to Christmas gifts, especially if you have a particular date or event in mind. We have you covered with speedy delivery, but it’s always best to plan ahead. We recommend finalising your order at least a few weeks in advance, especially if you’re customising items.
Once you’ve ordered your gifts, you can send them immediately or pick a date and let us know when you want them delivered. We can even include a “Do not open until” sticker on the outer box.
However, we know last-minute gifts happen. Many of our gifts in the festive collection can be ordered with express delivery. Choose Priority Shipping when you checkout, and complete your order setup before 11am and we’ll ship your order to arrive the next working day.
Can We Choose Sustainable or Ethical Gifts?
The corporate world is becoming more conscious of sustainability and giving back, and gifting is no different.
If your team is all about eco-friendly choices, SNAP, so is ours!
We offer a range of sustainable gift options, from reusable packaging to fair-trade products and environmentally conscientious gifts.
We’re also on a mission to give back to the community and make a broader social impact. For every gift sent, we include a charitable donation made on your behalf to either a local foodbank or Mind, mental health charity. Within each gift, we’ll let your recipient know which charity their gift has supported.
What if Someone Wants to Exchange Their Gift?
We all know that one person who just has to exchange everything. We have a feature that works like a digital gift receipt, HappinessGuaranteed™!
Now you can literally keep everyone happy!
Choose the gift you think is most likely to delight your recipient, and generate a free Gift Redemption Page link.
When they claim their gift, if it’s not ‘the one,’ they can exchange it for something that’s more their vibe or choose to donate the value of their gift to one of our charity partners. And just like a gift receipt, they won’t see the price or any information about your order with us.
You can still turn this feature off to always stick with your original choice or limit the alternatives on offer. For example, you can avoid showing products that contain alcohol.
Do You Offer Volume Discounts?
Yes, we all love a good deal (who doesn’t?), and if you’re buying bulk gifts for a large team, we know you’re going to want to ask.
We offer volume discounts on many of our gift collections.
Discounts are based on the quantity you order. The volume pricing table for each gift can be viewed on the product page on our website. Bespoke gift pricing is calculated dynamically based on the quantity you need.
