December RewardsCard · Hamper vs RewardsCard
December hamper or RewardsCard? Here is how to decide.
Both are good gifts. The right choice depends on your team size, your cities, and what your employees actually value. Here is the honest comparison.
Why a RewardsCard?
For large or distributed teams, a RewardsCard almost always wins on logistics, waste, and perceived value. For a small senior team where you know everyone well, a curated hamper can feel more personal.
Logistics: card wins at scale
A hamper for 5 people is manageable. A hamper for 200 people across different cities in December is a full-time operations project. A card is the same effort for 5 as for 500.
Perceived value: card wins when you do not know preferences
A hamper full of products someone does not eat or drink is a waste of budget. A card lets them pick the reward that actually matters to them.
Hampers win when you know your team well
A curated hamper for a small group where you know tastes, dietary needs, and family situations can feel more personal than a card. We offer both.
Tax treatment: both qualify
Both hampers and RewardsCards can be structured as non-cash benefits with more favourable tax treatment than an equivalent cash bonus. Check local rules with your HR or Finance team.

Remote Teams
You cannot gather a distributed team for a party or hand-deliver a hamper. A digital RewardsCard delivers by email or SMS — instantly, wherever they are.
Large Teams (100+)
At scale, the logistics of December gifting become the whole problem. One card value, one upload, one invoice — and every employee gets to choose what they actually want.
Field and Frontline Staff
Field and frontline teams are spread across cities and rarely at a desk. They value practical rewards that reach them wherever they are — not office perks.
