About GiftRound
Written by the company
All gift, no fees. Just simple, fair, joyful group gifting with GiftRound.
Organising a group gift used to mean chasing people for cash, juggling bank details and trying to keep track of who’d contributed. GiftRound was created to change that. We’re a UK-based online platform that makes it easy for friends, families, colleagues and school communities to come together, collect for a gift and celebrate someone special – without any of the hassle.
With GiftRound, you can set up a collection in minutes, share a secure link and watch the messages and contributions roll in. Contributors don’t need an account or an app – they can chip in quickly, leave a personal message and even add a photo or GIF, all in a few clicks. Every collection includes a free online group card that can be downloaded as a PDF, so the recipient can keep all those kind words forever.
When it’s time to spend the collection, the recipient receives a GiftRound FlexCard which can be used at 95+ well-loved UK retailers, including M&S, John Lewis, Currys and more. And when we say free, we really mean it: there are no set-up charges, no transaction fees and no sneaky “service” tips. Every penny goes to the person you’re celebrating. GiftRound is funded through small commissions from retail partners – never from your generosity.
Whether you’re organising a retirement gift, a teacher thank you, a new baby collection or a big team send-off, GiftRound helps you celebrate together and show you care – with zero hassle and all heart.
Simple, fair, joyful group gifting.

Super easy set up - lots of choice
It was super easy to set up and there was so much choice for the recipient to truly be able to feel as though she had been treated

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this lovely review! I’m really glad to hear the setup felt super easy and that the wide choice made your recipient feel truly treated, that’s exactly what we hope for with every GiftRound.
We’re big believers in FlexCards over bank transfers for that very reason. A transfer can feel a little 'flat' but a FlexCard gives people permission to intentionally indulge, choose something just for themselves and enjoy a little moment of joy they might not have prioritised otherwise.
Your feedback means a lot, thank you again for choosing GiftRound to show someone you care.

this is a great way to put a retirement or leaving collection together as not everyone works in the same area. Even better they can add their own message too!

Thanks again for your review!

Such an easy website to use, and a really effective way to gather money together for someone. Easy to extend the date if needed. Very handy website, whilst remaining completely free. I will be using again and recommending to others.

We built GiftRound to take the stress out of group gifting, so hearing it worked exactly that way for you is just wonderful. Thanks for recommending us to others, it really does make a huge difference!

Three little words the GiftRound team loves to hear...'easy to use'! Thank you for your lovely review and for using GiftRound to make someone smile.
preferred classic giftround
there is no longer an option to buy a card for the comments that have been sent, it is not the same to just download them and send a pdf copy, it looks like all you can do now is send 1 giftcard for the person, you could split the total last time and buy flowers, card, and a gift card, i much prefer the classic giftround, not sure why it's been changed!
November 15, 2025
Reply from GiftRound
Thanks so much for your feedback, I completely understand why you so enjoyed the classic GiftRound. We’ve removed physical gifts and printed cards as the costs and logistics just weren’t sustainable and we couldn’t guarantee the reliable delivery experience you deserve.
You can still split your collection across multiple FlexCards, using part of it for flowers, hampers or food gifts from brands like M&S, Waitrose & Partners and Not on the High Street and sending the remainder as a FlexCard to the recipient all while keeping GiftRound 100% fee-free.
I really appreciate you sharing how this change feels for you. Your feedback genuinely helps us keep improving.
Great service
Great service, easy to use and easy to withdraw. Perfect for work collections :)

Can’t withdraw cash
It wasn’t clear enough that the gifts will not be redeemable in cash
November 4, 2025
Reply from GiftRound
We are quite clear:
"With GiftRound, every collection is redeemed as a FlexCard: the ultimate gift of choice. Recipients can choose from ... any of the 95+ supported brands, spend it all in one go or carve it up their way: smart, simple, sorted."
However "Everything is feedback" and we'll look at this again for future customers.
Would have liked to be able to withdraw…
Would have liked to be able to withdraw money directly rather than as a voucher. We use it when collecting from multiple people and don't want to give own bank details. Ended up buying gift with own money and taking voucher myself to pay back, not ideal
November 4, 2025
Reply from GiftRound
Thank you for your review. We understand that being able to withdraw funds can feel convenient, but with new banking regulations and high processing costs, it’s becoming increasingly intrusive and complex for customers. That’s why we chose to focus on digital gift vouchers so every penny contributed goes directly toward the gift, with no fees or deductions.
User friendly process and fast, responsive support team
Really easy process to use and the Giftround team respond to requests for support very quickly. The range of gift cards to choose from is excellent.

Thank you for your review. Great to hear that you enjoyed using GiftRound and that we were on hand when you needed us.
Super easy to set up gift giving.
This gifting has been very easy to use by all who took part. The recipient was very happy with the card and gift.
Virtual card giving through Giftround is now my go to. Alerts received from Giftround when donations are added and how many days are left are very useful.

So easy and free! Thank you!
So many other services out there charge a fee which is crazy! I found it super easy to set up, send to colleagues, and the recipient had no issues claiming the funds via the extensive gift card selection. Great stuff!

Thank you so much for your review. We love the fact that we have no fees and we totally agree that charging a fee for people group gifting is crazy.
Super easy, highly recommended
Easy to set up and great you can add messages too. Had an issue buying the gift voucher, but emailed and someone called back within 10 minutes and resolved straight away. I also like they send email reminders. Would highly recommend.
