Snappy

Overview

Snappy is an enterprise corporate gifting and employee recognition platform designed to automate gifts, rewards, and branded swag distribution. The software allows managers to send digital gift options where recipients choose their preferred physical item, digital card, or charity donation before shipping. By integrating with HR systems, Snappy automates milestone celebrations like work anniversaries and birthdays while tracking ROI and thank-you notes across global teams.

What it does

• Allows employers to send digital gift collections via SMS or email, enabling recipients to select or swap gifts prior to shipping
• Automates recurring employee recognition campaigns for work anniversaries, birthdays, and performance milestones
• Integrates custom branded swag creation and physical fulfillment logistics across international locations
• Provides a centralized dashboard for tracking gifting budgets, employee claim rates, and reciprocal thank-you notes.

Who it's for

• Enterprise HR & People Operations Teams
• Sales & Business Development Leaders

• Corporate Event Planners

Why it works

• Recipient choice model eliminates wasted budget by letting employees pick items they actually want or swap them out
• No address collection required upfront as recipients enter their own shipping details during gift redemption
• Deep HRIS integrations automate timely milestone gift triggers without manual HR intervention
• Built-in digital thank-you notes create immediate feedback loops between managers and team members.

Founder story

Snappy was founded in 2015 by Dvir Cohen and Hani Goldstein in San Francisco before relocating its headquarters to New York City. Recognizing that traditional corporate gifting was impersonal, wasteful, and operationally tedious, they built a recipient-choice software system where employees could virtually unwrap and swap gifts. Snappy expanded globally into an enterprise recognition suite trusted by Fortune 500 organizations.
