giftee for Business Selected for National Support Program
In a significant achievement for the innovative company giftee Inc., they have been selected to implement their service, giftee for Business, in eight municipalities for the national support program for pregnant women, starting with the fiscal year 2027. The participating municipalities include Muroran and Ishikari in Hokkaido, Kunitachi and Inagi in Tokyo, Tajimi in Gifu, Nisshin in Aichi, Nishinomiya in Hyogo, and Gokase in Miyazaki. This initiative is part of a broader strategy by the Child and Family Agency aimed at providing ongoing support for pregnant women during their pregnancy journey.
Through this program, giftee will provide customized versions of their flagship product, the giftee Box®, to each participating municipality. These boxes will include various gift items tailored to the needs of pregnant women and new parents, thus facilitating a more supportive environment during this crucial period. The program aims not only to assist with physical and economic needs but also to enhance mental well-being, positioning giftee as a key player in the realm of maternal support services.
Understanding the Support Program for Pregnant Women
The support program in question, “Support Benefits for Pregnant Women,” is designed to provide financial aid to those recognized as pregnant by their respective municipalities. Upon certification, pregnant women receive a direct benefit of 50,000 yen. Additional amounts are provided for each unborn child reported in the same context. As these funds are distributed through local municipalities, the need for efficient and satisfactory service delivery systems becomes paramount, which is where giftee's extensive expertise in digital gifting solutions comes into play.
giftee for Business aims to cater to the diverse needs of local residents while ensuring a smooth and efficient operation for municipal staff. This includes launching various digital gifts that can be exchanged for numerous products, allowing flexibility for users who may need to manage finances amidst the trials of pregnancy and newborn care.
Customizable Gift Options
The giftee Box® is tailored uniquely for each municipality involved in the project. It will include gift tickets for baby clothes, childcare services, and digital codes redeemable through various e-commerce platforms—ensuring practicality for mothers who may face restrictions in mobility due to pregnancy or after childbirth. The concept behind giftee Box® not only improves the satisfaction of the recipients but also adds a layer of convenience and choice for new parents.
Recipients can exchange their gift points for the selected items within their box. In addition to regular gifts, municipalities have the option to offer the ability to withdraw cash directly from Seven Bank ATMs. This option allows recipients to choose between cash, gifts, or mobile payment service points, enhancing overall satisfaction and flexibility.
Moreover, municipalities can include local e-voucher systems to promote nearby businesses, allowing them to issue electronic gift certificates usable within their communities. This localized approach fosters stronger community ties while making sure that new families feel cared for and supported.
Enhanced Distribution Solutions
In addition to offering customizable gifts, giftee provides distribution solutions in seven of the eight municipalities, ensuring a robust system for gift distribution. This includes an online survey system to gather feedback from recipients, as well as email solutions for gift delivery. Physical cards with QR codes for in-person gifting can also be tailored for the unique offerings of each municipality.
Moreover, to ensure smooth operations, giftee can assist municipalities in managing backend operations related to direct bank transfers, thus alleviating some of the administrative burden typically faced by local governments. This ensures that not only are recipients well taken care of, but municipal staff can focus on other pressing matters.
Future Aspirations
Looking forward, giftee for Business plans to continue expanding its initiatives focused on maternity and childcare support. With a proven record of successful program implementations across various municipalities, giftee aims to enhance the variety of products and develop tools that cater to the promotional needs of both public and private sectors. Their commitment to addressing community needs and satisfying diverse client bases underscores giftee's potential to revolutionize the support mechanisms for vulnerable populations.
As the company continues to innovate within the digital gift space, they remain dedicated to nurturing connections across people, businesses, and communities, reinforcing their status as a leader in the burgeoning e-gift marketplace in Japan.
