Christmas hampers - you can’t go wrong with a classic

We like to do things a little differently at Huggg

We go out of our way to find unique gifts that are a break from the norm and try to sprinkle a little fun into the world of corporate gifting. That doesn’t mean we don’t also embrace tradition though, no siree! Sometimes a popular gift is popular for a very good reason, and with festive workplace presents, Christmas hampers sure are popular!

Prefer to let people choose? You can sort your team's Christmas gifts so everyone picks their own, hamper or otherwise.

Huggg is a UK employee gifting platform. Companies use it to send staff and clients a gift the recipient chooses themselves, with no home address to collect and UK trivial-benefits rules taken care of.

This holiday season we have introduced a fantastic range of Christmas hampers for you to share with your clients and colleagues alike. But in true Huggg style, they are filled with interesting and memorable treats that will have your recipients smiling from ear to ear.

Sending hampers to a whole team, without the admin

Here's the bit that usually makes bulk gifting a headache: chasing everyone's home address. With Huggg you don't. You send a hamper as a link by email, SMS or a printed QR card, and each person adds their own delivery details only when they claim. There's no spreadsheet of addresses to build, store or worry about under GDPR.

You can send to one person or ten thousand from a single upload, and because most Christmas hampers land under the £50 trivial-benefits threshold, they're usually tax-free for your team with no P11D or payroll faff. Worth a quick check against your own numbers, but it's one of the reasons a hamper beats a cash bonus at Christmas: the taxman doesn't take a slice.

 

FAQ

Are Christmas hampers a tax-free gift for employees?

In most cases, yes. A staff gift is tax-free under the UK trivial-benefits rule when it costs £50 or less per person, isn't cash or a cash voucher, and isn't a reward for work. Most of the hampers here sit inside that, so there's no tax for your team and no reporting for you. Always sense-check against the exact cost and your own circumstances.

Do I need my team's home addresses to send a hamper?

No. With Huggg the recipient adds their own delivery details when they claim their gift, so you never have to collect or store a single address. That's what makes hampers workable for a big, remote or multi-site team.

Can I send hampers to a whole team at once?

Yes. You can bulk send from one upload, anywhere from a handful of people to ten thousand, or share a single group link the team claims from. Everyone gets the same thoughtful gift without you sending them one by one.

What if people have different tastes or dietary needs?

Gift with choice solves exactly that. Instead of picking one hamper and hoping it lands, you set a price and your recipient chooses their own: savoury, sweet, boozy, alcohol-free, vegan or nut-free. Nobody's stuck with something they won't eat.

How far in advance should I order Christmas hampers?

Because a Huggg hamper sends as a digital gift the recipient claims, you're not tied to a courier cut-off to get the send out. Sorting it in November rather than the December scramble still means less stress, better choice and no last-minute panic-buying.
