You might be wondering

Our group card is completely free for all features - unlimited people can sign, they can add a message and photo and you can even download the card as a PDF to print.


It's also free to collect money for a gift or add a gift purchased by your company. You can choose from 150+ fee-free eGift Cards (including AirBnb, GrubHub, TJMaxx, Gap, Southwest Airlines, Ulta & many more), flowers and gift baskets. Most people give the AnyCard which lets the recipient choose.


If you choose to give a gift card from one of our Premium retailer partners, there is a one-time charge of 5%. You can decide whether to deduct that from the total collected or pay for it with additional funds. Our premium retailer partners are: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Delta Air Lines, Elements Massage, Instacart, Lowe's, Norstrom, Petsmart, Starbucks, Target, Uber & Walmart.

In the US? So sorry, you're unable to withdraw the funds. At this time the money collected can only be used to purchase a gift or eGift Card from one of our retail partners or buy an AnyCard from us.

You can use GroupTogether to set up a gift collection or a group card. Click Start on the homepage, answer a few questions and we’ll give you a link to share with your group. Your group will use the link to chip in and/or sign the card.

Once the gift collection closes you can download the card as a PDF or use a link to share it. Then, if you collected funds, you can choose eGift Cards from 150+ retail partners or buy an AnyCard from us that allows the recipient to choose the eGift Card/s they’d love to receive. Transfer of funds is not an option in the US at this time.

If you spend your gift funds on the AnyCard, a delivered gift (gift baskets or flowers) or eGift Cards from one of our fee-free retail partners, there is no fee to use GroupTogether (it's completely free!).

If you choose a gift or eGift Card from one of our Premium partners, there is a one-time GroupTogether fee of 5%. You can decide whether to deduct that from the gift funds balance or pay for it personally via credit card. The Premium retailer partners are: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Delta Air Lines, Elements Massage, Lowe's, Norstrom, Petsmart, Starbucks, Target, Uber & Walmart.

When you set up a gift collection we provide you with 2 ways to share it. One, you can share your gift collection link by copying and pasting it into social media, an email, newsletter etc.. Two, you can add your group’s email addresses and we will email it to them on your behalf. If you add emails, we can also send polite reminders.

To share your gift collection link, please login to the homepage and choose your gift collection/card. You will be taken to your Track page. Choose the “Share or invite Friends” button and choose the Copy URL button. Now you can paste the URL link in social media, an email, newsletter etc..

A gift card is the perfect way to show your appreciation to your child's teacher. GroupTogether offers heaps of gift card options that include hampers to fashion and beauty, making the purchasing process simple. Pool resources as well to ensure your child’s teacher receives a gift card that doesn’t break the bank.

Yes you can. Once your collection closes, you can split the money into as many eGift Cards as you'd like.

Keep in mind - the money must be spent all at once and for each collection we only create one group card with messages and photos (though you can download it and share it or print it as many times as you'd like).

If you use the funds to purchase AnyCards (GroupTogether's swap card), the recipient can swap it across multiple retailers. They have 3 years to use the AnyCard.

Peace of mind

The inclusive way to group gift - you choose whether to ask for a set amount, any amount or let people sign the card without contributing. Nice!

No apps or downloads

Just click the link to pay and write a message on the card.
