Group gift for a coworker's retirement

Office coworkers pooling one real retirement gift instead of a card-and-cake send-off.

When a long-time coworker retires, the office collection usually devolves into a manila envelope and an awkward Friday afternoon. Giftaro is the cleaner way to coordinate: one link in the team channel, each coworker contributes an amount that fits, the gift goes to one real thing — a trip, a watch, a meaningful experience.

Typical contribution per person: $20–$75.

Gift ideas
