EOFY is approaching, and you've got a list of staff to thank plus a list of clients. EOFY gifting is meant to say "thanks for the year", not become one more job in the last fortnight before your financial year closes.
With employee gifts, the trouble isn't wanting to say thanks. It's that one person would love a weekend away, another would rather jump out of a plane, and you can't be sure which is which.
Below are experience ideas for your team, then a section on client gifts and one on bulk orders before the deadline.
Six EOFY Corporate Gifts for Your Whole Team
1. Let Them Choose with a Gift Voucher
When you don't know what will suit each gift recipient, a value-based gift voucher does the guessing for you. Choose any amount and currency, add a personal message and pick a design. Then email it straight away or schedule it for a date and time, such as the last morning of your financial year. It's a stress free way to cover a whole team in one go.
Your employees book live on Gifting Owl, with 19,000+ experiences in 100+ countries, from brewery tours to hotel stays. The voucher is valid for three years, so nobody is racing the end of the financial year to use it. Exchanges are free, and any leftover balance stays on their account.

2. A Short Stay to Look Forward To
Having a getaway on the horizon does a lot for morale in the final stretch of the financial year. You set the budget with a hotel getaway voucher and they choose where and when, so the city break you pictured can become a beach stay if that suits them better. Swapping is free, and they only pay extra if the new choice costs more.
It's a good way to reward employees who never quite get round to booking time off for themselves.
3. A Bucket List Experience
If you know your team well enough to know their dream day out, this is where a thoughtful gift pays off.
A hot air balloon ride is the quiet one: the burner roars, then everything goes still and the landscape drifts by. Flights usually go early in the morning and weather can move them, so check the cancellation policy on the experience page. It suits a work anniversary or a recent wedding.
Skydiving is the loud one, with indoor and outdoor options if someone wants the thrill with their feet closer to the ground. It's for the colleague who volunteers first, and if you've guessed wrong, the voucher can be exchanged for something calmer.
If your team is in Brisbane, a Story Bridge climb at sunset is a local favourite, with the city lights coming on below you. Choose a voucher value that covers two climbs if you'd like them to bring a friend.

4. Rest and Recovery
If someone has been juggling deadlines all quarter, a spa experience says thanks without a word and quietly reinforces appreciation for the person who carried the load. Think a massage or a full pamper package, with an hour or two of quiet. Let them pick their own time, because a spa slot on the wrong day is more stress than relief.
5. Learn Something New
A cooking class comes with the smell of garlic and a plate you've made yourself at the end. Check dietary needs when booking. It's a good match for the office foodie who's been talking about mastering Italian or Vietnamese.
A surfing lesson is for the keen. If your year ends in winter, the water may be cold, but with three years of validity they can wait for summer. They might fall in love with the sport and, with luck, remember who started it.

6. A Team Adventure
If you'd rather celebrate together, white water rafting has the whole team paddling in sync (or very much not). It's a good way to reconnect people who've mostly seen each other through screens and spreadsheets, and a shared day out is a friendly nudge for workplace culture. Ask about group sizes when you book, or get in touch if you need something in a particular city.
Client Gifts at EOFY: Thoughtful Without Being Awkward
Client gifts work best when the client has a say. A voucher with a personal message lets each person choose something that suits them, whether that's a spa visit, a dinner experience or a weekend away. Nobody has to guess, your note does the talking, and an experience they pick themselves can leave a lasting impression that supports your client relationships well into the new financial year.
Some businesses limit what their people can accept, so it's worth keeping the value modest and checking policies if you're unsure. For more ideas, see our guide to thank you gifts for clients.
Bulk Orders Before Your Year Ends, Sorted
For corporate gifting across a larger staff or client list, head to the corporate page. Discounts start from 10% off at 10 vouchers and increase with quantity, and vouchers can carry your company logo. For very large bulk orders, you can enquire directly.
Delivery is by email only. You can send each voucher immediately, schedule it for a set date and time, or send it to yourself to print and hand over at the end-of-year team meeting. There's no GST or VAT at purchase, and tax applies when the experience is booked. For how gifts are treated in your business, check with your accountant.
