Consider company policies, approved items, spending limits and your gifting goals. At American Express Gift Cards, we offer options for a range of workplace gifting needs.  

Gift Cards for Employees

Explore elegant designs like the Festive Gold Gift Card and seasonal designs such as the Golden Winter Gift Card along with Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa Gift Cards for businesses. When selecting designs, you can also choose to send Business Gift Cards as a physical Gift Card by mail or as an eGift Card by email, depending on the selected product. Choose a Card value that aligns with your company policy and budget.  

Gift Cards for Coworkers 

If you are looking for holiday gift ideas for coworkers, a Gift Card can be a thoughtful option that works across a range of preferences. Gift Cards can reduce some of the guesswork that comes with choosing workplace gifts.  

For a white elephant exchange, secret Santa or a simple thank-you, consider designs that match the occasion. Decorative styles like the Thank You Night Sparkle Amex Business Gift Card, the Soft Slate Box Business Gift Card or the Merry Snowflake Holiday Business Gift Card can be festive ways to thank coworkers. 

Gift Cards for Teams

When choosing Gift Cards for teams, start with your company's gifting policy and budget. Then explore styles that fit your needs. Find Christmas, Kwanzaa or Hanukkah Gift Cards for businesses or consider creating a Custom Gift Card with your company logo. A gift message can add a personal touch when Cards are distributed to a larger group.
