Workplace moments,
made easy.
The easiest way to run a group gift collection at work. Share one link, everyone chips in from any amount, and your colleague picks a gift card from 300+ UK retailers. Birthdays, leaving do's, baby showers, retirements — workplace moments, made easy.
How a group gift collection works.
From “we should get them something” to a gift card in their inbox — about as long as it takes to make a cup of tea.
Start a collection
Pick an occasion, name the recipient, set a target. Share one link with your team — Slack, email, WhatsApp, notice-board.
Everyone chips in
Colleagues contribute any amount, leave a message, attach a sticker or GIF. No sign-up. No spreadsheet chaos.
Recipient picks a gift card
They redeem from 300+ UK retailers — John Lewis, Amazon, Selfridges, Uber Eats. Plus a collage of every message.
Built for UK workplaces.
Every detail sweated so the organiser looks good and the recipient feels seen. All the little things that turn an office whip-round into a proper workplace moment, made easy.
Any amount, any card
Apple Pay, Google Pay, card — colleagues chip in what they want. No minimums, no shame.
Messages that land
Contributors write a note, attach a sticker, pick a handwriting font. The recipient gets a scrollable wall of love.
300+ UK retailers
One gift card → any shop. John Lewis, Waitrose, Uber Eats, Deliveroo, Amazon, Selfridges — they pick.

Trusted by UK organisers.
Real words from the brave souls who used to wrangle envelopes and Monzo.me links.
“Our old process was a shared spreadsheet and three Monzo.me links. Hey Friday ate that whole mess in an afternoon.”
“The bit where contributors pick a handwriting font for their note — genuinely made someone cry on her last day. In a good way.”
“I've run 14 collections this year. Not once have I had to chase anyone, awkwardly corner someone at the fridge, or open a spreadsheet.”
Group gift collection FAQ.
Quick answers to the questions UK office organisers ask most often.
How do workplace gift collections work on Hey Friday?
Pick an occasion, set a target, and share one link with your team — Slack, email, WhatsApp, wherever. Colleagues chip in any amount with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card. When the collection closes, the recipient picks a gift card from 300+ UK retailers and sees every message you wrote them.
Is Hey Friday really free for organisers?
Yes. We don't charge organisers a set-up fee and we don't take a cut of what your team contributes. Hey Friday earns on the gift-card margin we get from UK retailers, never from your team's collection.
Which UK gift cards can the recipient choose from?
Over 300 UK retailers and brands — John Lewis, Amazon, Waitrose, Selfridges, Uber Eats, Deliveroo, Boots, Argos, Costa, and dozens more. The recipient picks what they actually want after the collection closes.
How do colleagues contribute to the collection?
Via Apple Pay, Google Pay, debit card, or credit card. No account or app required — your colleagues just tap the link, pick an amount, and leave a message. The whole thing takes under a minute.
Is the money safe?
Funds sit in a ring-fenced account with our FCA-regulated payment partner until the recipient redeems. Every contribution has a clear audit trail so your finance team has no awkward questions.
What occasions work best for a Hey Friday collection?
Leaving gifts, birthdays, work anniversaries, baby showers, retirement collections, teacher thank-yous, weddings, secret Santa alternatives, and in-memory collections. If a group is chipping in for someone, Hey Friday handles the rest.
