We've recently updated our pricing based on customer feedback.

  • Just need a Group Card? It's $5.50 AUD. See what's included here.
  • Prefer to withdraw the cash you collected? There's a flat 2% fee (available in Australia only).
  • Contributors pay a minimal payment processing fee.
    • 1.5% + $0.10 for MasterCard/Visa?Amex
    • 2.3% + $0.30 for PayPal

 

For collections setup before October 11th/12th in Australia, the old fees still apply. Fees are calculated per contribution and vary by payment type as follows:

  • 2.0% + $0.35 cents per transaction for domestic credit cards
  • 2.3% + $0.35 cents per transaction for American Express cards
  • 3.0% + $0.40 cents per transaction for PayPal

If you spend your collection at our gift store, you can spend the total amount collected. However, If you withdraw the your collection to your personal bank account (third party transfers are not allowed), the sum of these fees will be automatically deducted from the total amount available to withdraw. 
 

Sure! We’re about helping you do good things. If that’s a beautiful card with messages, then great. During the setup process, you'll be asked what we can help you with, please select a card only.

An AnyCard is GroupTogether's way of making wonderful gift-giving even easier. Why sweat what the perfect gift might be when you can let the recipient choose the perfect gift for themselves? Genius!

The AnyCard is a credit with GroupTogether that can be swapped by the recipient for any retailer eGift card that they would like best (over 70+ to choose from). That way you leave the decision to them without having to ask. They have 3 years to swap it and then the retailer eGift card is good for 3 more years and they don’t have to spend it all in one go.

If you choose the AnyCard we will add back the fees so you can use the total amount collected, and once purchased, we will immediately send you a gift email that you can print & give or forward onto the recipient.

Please login in to the website, https://www.grouptogether.com and find your collection. If you don't see it, please check the PAST tab. You’ll be taken to your Track page. Find the SPEND button and click that. Now it’s like an e-commerce site and you use the menu at the top to choose what you'd like to do or scroll down the gift shop to see what's available. Select the item you want, fill in the details and ADD to your shopping bag.

Once you've spent all the money, choose CHECKOUT in your shopping bag. Review your items and proceed either to review your group card or to finish checkout.

If you buy an AnyCard, we immediately email it out, please check spam if you don't see it.

If you buy a gift card, we email it out as soon as it's been processed, please check spam if you don't see it. Most gift cards are emailed immediately, a few can take longer - please check the retailer information before you select the gift card.

If you transfer funds (AU only), please allow 2 business days for it to clear. Since it's a transfer, we don't send you a gift email, please use the Share or Download button to share the group card with the recipient.

Yes, we do! 97% of teachers say they’d prefer a gift from the class rather than individually, and we’ve put together a great selection of gifts for teachers. They’ve left an important mark on your children throughout their careers, so we’ve made it easy to show your appreciation with a perfect gift from the whole class.

There are no rules when it comes to buying a group retirement gift, with GroupTogether you can let everyone chip in as little or as much as they'd like! We find some people choose to simply sign the card, while other might contribute anywhere between $10 - $50 depending on how well they knew their coworker.

Many retirees will start ticking items off their bucket lists, so gifting a list-worthy experience is a great place to start. Otherwise, personalised accessories and relaxing spa treatments are very popular and a little bit special. Check out our ideas for farewell gifts for coworkers for more inspo.

It’s one of the trickiest parts to navigate – asking for money for a group gift. With GroupTogether, we’ve taken the stress away, letting you set up a collection online and allowing coworkers to opt out of a financial contribution if they want. You can even let them sign the card without contributing if you’d prefer.
