What's inside

The day-one kit, opened.

Six elements we ship in every onboarding kit. Swap, scale, or rebrand each one — the format stays.

01

Branded Welcome Card

Personalized message from the hiring manager + leadership, printed on premium card stock with your brand finish.

02

Premium Apparel

T-shirt, hoodie, or soft-goods layer in your brand colors. Size collected at intake, no guessing.

03

Day-One Gear

Drinkware, notebook, premium pen — the essentials a new hire reaches for in the first week.

04

Tech Accessories

Desk mat, mousepad, branded power bank, USB hub. Optional headphones or webcam for fully-remote roles.

05

Address & Sizing Intake

A branded intake form goes to your new hire. Address, t-shirt size, and any allergies confirmed in 60 seconds. Optional HRIS sync available on the platform upgrade.

06

Manager Tracking Link

Hiring manager gets a live tracking link the day the kit ships — so day-one ritual is planned, not winged.

Built for

Three onboarding scenarios we run every week.

Branded onboarding kit example with backpack, drinkware, and tech accessories

Remote-first companies

Distribute identical kits to home addresses worldwide. Production and shipping originate from the facility closest to each hire — US for North America, EU for European hires, APAC for everywhere east. Same kit experience, four to seven days to door.

Hybrid & office-flex teams

Some kits to home, some to office, some held for the first-day desk drop. Address management handles all three workflows from a single intake form, and the manager dashboard shows where each kit landed.

Cohort-style branded onboarding kit with apparel, tote, power bank, and welcome card

Cohort & bootcamp hiring

Batch-ship a hundred kits for a class cohort — engineering bootcamps, sales academies, summer interns. One pack run, one shipping date, identical unboxing for every cohort member.

The flow

How an onboarding kit ships with Givenly.

1

Hire info flows in

Send us your new hire list — CSV upload, shared sheet, or HRIS sync if you've upgraded the platform. We pick up start dates the moment they're confirmed.

2

Address auto-collected

The new hire gets a branded intake form: address, t-shirt size, allergy notes. 60 seconds to complete, fully mobile-friendly.

3

Kit packed + shipped

Kits ship 2–4 business days after the intake form is submitted.

4

Day-one arrival

Tracking link sent to the hiring manager. They know exactly when the kit lands so day-one ritual is planned, not improvised.

FAQ

Onboarding kit questions, answered.

Do I need to hold inventory?

No — we do. Kits are produced in bulk and warehoused at our facilities, then dispatched 1:1 as your new hires onboard. You commit to a program design and per-kit budget; we handle production, storage, and shipping.

How fast can we launch a program?

Standard onboarding programs go live in 5–10 business days. Custom-branded kits with bespoke packaging typically launch in 3–4 weeks.

Can I customize every item?

Yes. Apparel, drinkware, accessories, packaging — all customizable to your brand guidelines, including non-logo personalized elements like the welcome card.

Can we ship internationally?

Yes. International shipping is built in — we handle duties, customs paperwork, and transit time on every cross-border kit.

Do you integrate with our HR tools?

Optional — for customers who want zero-touch automation. We offer integrations with Workday, BambooHR, ADP, Rippling, and Gusto as a platform upgrade. Most customers start with our simple intake form and add HRIS sync later. SAML SSO and SCIM provisioning included on the enterprise tier.

What's the per-kit budget range?

Onboarding kits typically run $75–$250 per kit depending on contents. We'll size the program to your headcount and per-hire budget on the demo call.
