About Company

Company Description

Updated 17th November 2023

Guusto provides an employee recognition platform that works from head office to the frontline. Start with a free single user account, then only pay for people who can give recognition (unlimited recipients). No company email needed to receive recognition and recipients get to choose where to redeem from thousands of merchant locations. Web, mobile and print-out options so no one is left out. No markups and unclaimed gifts are credited back in full. And 1 day of clean water is donated with every gift sent.

Guusto Likes & Dislikes

Like

It's very easy to claim and access your gift cards. They have a very large set of vendors to choose from. Love how we can choose specific amounts and split one gift card between different vendors. This makes it very user-friendly and practical. They also let you leave a 'Thank You' note for the sender, which I find very thoughtful!

Like

Simply, Everything upfront and be able to do everything online

    Best recognition program out there!

    May 1, 2024
    It's a great program. It's been so easy to use! It's quick, simple and time efficient for even the busiest people on the team. Our entire team absolutely loves using this program. They are honestly loving it even more than we initially imagined. We've tried a lot of recognition programs in the past, but nothing seems to stick like Guusto appears to be. Thank goodness!
