At Guusto, we’re committed to supporting charities that you feel passionate about!

Instead of redeeming your Guusto gift for a merchant gift card, you can donate the funds to any charity of your choice. Our team would make the donations on your behalf.

The Guusto Cares Initiative

If you have a charity in mind that you would like to support, we will give the charity:

  • FREE access to the Guusto platform

  • FREE access to all of Guusto's essential-tier features, including the Peer-to-Peer Nomination Box

  • Guusto would match 10% of your first funding and donate it to fund your charity’s Guusto Account. (Up to $500)

The price of plastic gift cards

Single-use plastic gift cards generate 5.8 million kilograms of PVC waste in landfills and consequently, a carbon footprint of 24 million kilograms every year in the United States! This is equivalent to greenhouse emissions from 5,220 passenger vehicles driven for 1 year or CO2 emissions from 318 tanker trucks of gasoline!

By using Guusto, you reduce plastic waste
