What is a Collection?
Collections are curated, dynamic groups of gifts that are updated frequently based on redemption data, new trends, and product availability.
Collections are curated, dynamic groups of gifts that are updated frequently based on redemption data, new trends, and product availability.
To add Collections to your platform, contact your Client Success Manager.
When the Super Admin creates a team, they choose which Collections a team has access to.
We offer collections ranging from $75 up to $2,500 per gift given. Please contact your Client Success contact for additional detail.
Hover over the Send a Gift button and select whether to Gift to One or Gift to Many. Then follow the steps to add Contact(s), choose a Collection, create a personal message, and customize your gift settings.
By default, when you send a gift from the platform it will look as though the Cultivate sent the gift to the recipient. However, the custom message will appear to be from the user who sent the gift. However, the email can look as though it is from your personal email if you provide Cultivate DNS access. For more information, please contact your Client Success Manager.
We use SendGrid as our email service provider and our email delivery success rate is 98%.
You can copy the gift link (ex. giftcultivate.com/giftevent/00000000000) and send it via your personal email. Or, you can update the Contact's email address and try sending it again.
Below is an explanation of each gift status you will see throughout the gift and fulfillment process.
Email Delivered: The email was successfully delivered to the gift recipient's inbox.
Email Bounced: The email was not successfully delivered to the gift recipient's inbox. When this happens, we recommend you copy the gift link on the gift tile and send it from your personal email. Or, update the Contact's email address and try sending another gift.
Email Opened: The gift recipient has opened the email.
Email Clicked: The gift recipient has clicked the 'Select your gift' button and visited your Gifting Website.
Gift Confirmed: The recipient selected a gift and completed the checkout process
Gift Shipped: The gift has been shipped to the recipient
Gift Canceled: The recipient contacted Customer Support and was given a replacement gift

What is a Ticket Program?
A Ticket Program allows you to send people gifts with varying Ticket Values. Recipients can then select one or multiple items based on the number of tickets assigned to their gift. For example, one recipient may select one item with a higher ticket value while another may select 3 items with lower ticket values.
How do I send gifts with a Ticket Value?
If you choose to send a gift from a Ticket Program Collection you will be prompted to assign a Ticket Value to the gift.
Note: Only one ticket value can be assigned when you are sending gifts to multiple people. If you send multiple gifts with varying ticket values, we recommend doing so in batches based on the ticket value. For example, you can send all your gifts worth 3 Tickets and then send all your gifts worth 5 Tickets.
How is the price of a gift with a ticket value calculated?
Each gift has a set price and freight amount. Both are automatically multiplied by the number of tickets you assign to the gift. For example, a gift is worth $125 plus $10 freight and you assign it a ticket value of 2. The cost of the gift will be $250 plus $20 in freight for a total of $270.

When the Super Admin creates a team, they allocate a certain amount of the total budget to the team. The Super Admin or Admin then add users to a team and assign them a budget.
Only the Super Admin or Admin can increase a Team Member's budget.
The Available Balance depends on your user permission.

You receive an Account Credit when a gift link expires and is Recycled. If you send a gift and the person doesn't select a gift within 30 days, you receive a credit for the dollar amount of the gift plus freight. The credit appears in your Gifting Budget when the gift expires.
If you send a gift and the recipient doesn’t choose a gift within 30 days the gift is recycled and the dollar amount of the gift is credited to your Gifting Budget.
