Unwrapit offers a way to align gifts with your business values by ensuring they are meaningful, easy, and low or no waste. The Unwrapit gifting platform offers companies and event planners a way to digitally deliver sustainably minded branded gifts — digital, charitable, or experiential — that recipients can select based on what resonates most with them.
