What Is TapWell’s Make Your Own Gift Hamper Service?

TapWell’s Make Your Own Diwali Gift Hamper is an exclusive gifting service and one of the first of its kind in India. It gives you the freedom to create a Diwali hamper exactly the way you want, instead of choosing from fixed hamper options.

Already used by 500+ brands, the service lets you choose the products, packaging, box, branding, and other details that go into your hamper. This means you can create a gifting experience that reflects your brand, rather than sending the same standard hamper that other companies may also be using.

You can personalise the hamper based on your budget, brand identity, and the people you are gifting it to. Whether you are creating Diwali gifts for employees, clients, or business partners, every element can be selected to make the final hamper feel unique and exclusive to your brand.

How to Create Your Own Diwali Gift Hamper with TapWell

The process is simple, and our team helps you at every step. Here is how you can create your own custom Diwali gift hamper with TapWell.

1. Decide Who You’re Gifting

Start by deciding who the hampers are for. Your approach will be different if you are gifting to all your employees in bulk or sending a smaller number of premium hampers to selected clients and business partners. 

Think about the recipient, the purpose of the gift, and the kind of experience you want to create. This will help guide your choices for the budget, products, packaging, and personalisation.

You can explore our gift categories:

• Eco-friendly Corporate Gifts
• Diwali Gift Hampers
• Affordable Diwali Gift Hampers
• Home & Kitchen Appliances For Diwali Gifting

2. Set a Budget for Your Hamper

Once you know who you are gifting, set a clear budget per hamper. This is especially important for procurement and HR teams working with a fixed Diwali gifting budget. 

Having a budget from the start makes it easier to shortlist products, decide how much to spend on packaging and branding, and maintain consistency across a large order. 

With TapWell, you can build your hamper around your budget rather than having to fit your requirements into a fixed hamper.

3. Choose a Diwali Gift Theme

A theme gives your hamper a clear direction and helps all the elements work well together. You could choose an eco-friendly theme, a modern and premium look, a festive and vibrant theme, or something more subtle and minimal.

 Your brand identity can also influence the theme, from the colours and packaging to the products you select. The right theme makes the hamper feel thoughtfully designed rather than like a collection of unrelated gifts.

4. Choose What to Put in Your Diwali Hamper

This is where you can really customise the gifting experience. At TapWell, you can choose from 4,000+ gift items, with options ranging from around ₹30 to ₹5,000+, allowing you to build a hamper around your budget and gifting objective.

You can select from 30+ categories, including electronics, wellness, apparel, technology, desk accessories, stationery, home and lifestyle products, and more. You can also combine different types of products to create a hamper that suits your recipients. Instead of settling for a pre-designed combination, you get to decide exactly what goes inside.

5. Add a Personal Touch

Personalisation can make a standard corporate gift feel much more thoughtful. Depending on your requirements, you can add personal notes, name tags, personalised products, branded elements, or other details that make the hamper more relevant to the recipient. You can also tailor the personalisation to your brand guidelines so that the final hamper feels consistent with your identity. TapWell can help bring these details together as part of the overall hamper experience.

6. Choose the Right Hamper Box or Basket

The packaging is an important part of the gifting experience because it is the first thing the recipient sees. 

Choose a format that fits the products, your theme, and your brand. TapWell offers 10+ packaging options, including rigid boxes, foldable boxes, custom paper bags, custom baskets, and more. The right packaging should not only look good but also protect the products and make the hamper easy to handle, store, and deliver.

7. Get It Delivered to Your Office or Employee’s Home

Once you have finalised the products, quantity, packaging, branding, and delivery requirements, TapWell takes care of the execution. From customisation and hamper assembly to warehousing and delivery, the process is managed for you. 

Depending on your requirements, the finished hampers can be delivered to your office for distribution or sent directly to your employees’ homes. This makes it easier to manage large-scale Diwali gifting without having to coordinate multiple vendors and delivery arrangements yourself.

We also offer free custom brand stores for businesses, where you can host your Diwali gift collection and let employees choose their own gifts and delivery addresses.

Each employee can be assigned a specific gifting budget, with options such as individual coupons and controlled product access. Secure features help prevent unauthorised selections or misuse, while employees get the flexibility to choose a gift they actually want and have it delivered directly to their preferred address.

This gives your HR and admin teams a simpler way to manage large-scale Diwali gifting without the hassle of collecting employee preferences, coordinating multiple deliveries, or managing vendors separately.

Final Checklist Before Gifting

Before sending out your Diwali hampers, take a final check to make sure everything is correct, complete, and ready for delivery.

• Finalise the recipient list by confirming all employee, client, or partner names and the total number of recipients.
• Confirm the hamper quantity based on the final recipient list and planned distribution.
• Approve the budget per hamper and the total order cost, including products, packaging, branding, personalisation, and delivery.
• Finalise the products you want to include based on your budget, theme, and recipients.
• Check product quantities to ensure you have enough stock for every hamper.
• Select the packaging format based on your products, gifting theme, brand, and delivery needs.
• Approve the branding and artwork, including logos, colours, packaging designs, gift notes, and other branded elements.
