With many companies opting to keep their employees remote, White Elephant Online offers an online twist to the time-tested and office favorite gift exchange that typically required participants to gather in person since the game involves opening and swapping gifts. White Elephant Online gathers everyone together virtually by bringing the gift submission, gameplay, and gift distribution online. Last season, thousands of companies used White Elephant Online to celebrate the holidays remotely.
White Elephant, also known as Yankee Swap and Dirty Santa, is played by an estimated 36 million Americans each year.1 Designed to be used with any video-conferencing tool, the White Elephant Online platform enables one participant to run the gift exchange, automatically assigning numbers and letting players unwrap and steal gifts virtually. Once the game is complete, the platform offers several gift distribution options for both personal use and companies concerned with employee privacy.
