How do Jaapi and Goody approach gifting?
Goody made one thing famously easy: send a gift with just an email address, and let the recipient swap it for something they’d rather have. The catalog leans on curated retail brands, with branded swag available alongside. It’s a gifting product — each send is an occasion.
Jaapi comes at it from the other side. The core product is a branded store your employees use year-round with credit budgets, and gifting inherits the store: pick items, generate a gift link, and the recipient chooses their variant and enters their own address. You pay only when a gift is claimed.
What happens when the team is global?
This is where the models separate. A gift shipped cross-border arrives late, or with a customs bill, or not at all — whoever the sender is. Jaapi sidesteps the border: each item is produced at the nearest of 18+ facilities across 19 countries, so over 90% of orders travel as domestic parcels at $4–12, arriving in 4–8 business days. Goody reaches 140+ countries, but the cross-border mechanics depend on the item and destination.
Which should your company pick?
If you mostly send occasional retail gifts to US recipients — client thank-yous, birthday treats — Goody is a polished tool for exactly that. If you want an employee swag program: onboarding kits, recognition budgets, HRIS-driven automation, and your own branded gear delivered locally worldwide, that’s the job Jaapi was built for. Some teams use Goody for retail treats and Jaapi for everything with a logo on it.
