With WEO Gifting, you can select, purchase, and ship gifts directly through White Elephant Online, making it easier to organize a gift exchange without coordinating purchases and deliveries separately.
WEO Gifting uses simple, all-inclusive gift budgets, so you'll know exactly how much each gift will cost before your exchange begins.
Here's how pricing works.
How Much Does WEO Gifting Cost?
There is no additional fee to enable WEO Gifting for your game. The only cost is for the gift itself, which is determined by the “Budget per gift” set by the organizer when setting up the game.
Each WEO Gifting budget is all-inclusive and covers:
- The gift itself
- Shipping directly to the winner
- Applicable taxes
- Associated fulfillment fees
For example, if your organizer selects a $35 gift budget, every gift in the catalog is exactly $35 per gift, including shipping, taxes, and fees.
There are no additional shipping or handling charges beyond the selected gift budget.
What Gift Budgets Are Available?
When setting up WEO Gifting, the organizer selects a per-gift budget from the available options.
Available gift budgets include:
- $25 per gift
- $35 per gift (Recommended)
- $50 per gift
- $75 per gift
- $100 per gift
Your selected budget determines which gifts are available to browse in the WEO Gift Catalog when submitting a gift. Everyone in your exchange selects from the catalog associated with the same gift budget.
Who Pays for the Gifts?
The organizer determines who is responsible for gift purchases when configuring the game. There are three supported options:
1. Players select gifts and players pay
Each participant selects a gift from the WEO Gift Catalog before the game. After the exchange, each participant pays for the gift they originally submitted, not the gift they won.
2. Players select gifts and the Admin pays
Participants select and submit their own gifts, but the Admin purchases all gifts after the game. This is a great option for company-sponsored exchanges where you'd like employees to participate in gift selection without paying individually.
3. The Admin selects gifts and pays
The Admin selects and submits gifts for the group and purchases all gifts after the exchange.
Important: If the Admin submits gifts, the Admin must also pay for them. Admin-selected gifts cannot be purchased individually by participants.
When Are Gifts Purchased?
Gifts are selected before the game but purchased afterward. Once the exchange ends, the designated payer completes the purchase from the End-of-Game Summary.
After successful payment, gifts are automatically submitted for fulfillment and shipped directly to their winners.
For detailed purchasing instructions, see Purchase Your Gift(s).
How Do I Calculate the Total Gift Cost for My Group?
Multiply your selected per-gift budget by the number of gifts being purchased.
For example, if your group has 20 gifts and a $35 budget:
20 gifts × $35 = $700 total gift cost
This amount includes shipping, applicable taxes, and associated fees. The game fee is separate.
Please note: All WEO Gifting purchases are final and are not eligible for cancellations, returns, exchanges, or refunds, except in cases of damaged or missing items. For more information, see our Terms and Conditions.
