Overview
Bulk Send for Events or On-the-Ground distribution: Send large quantities of gifts to be distributed on the ground at events or offices. We recommend planning at least 5 business days for processing in our warehouse(s) for bulk orders, and 3-10 business days for shipping.
The Bulk Order option is visible only when physical enterprise gifts are added to the cart. This option does not appear if the cart contains digital gifts, cause gifts, or On Demand gifts. The feature is accessible exclusively to Admins.
