31 December is the last day to use this year's €1,500 allowance. Business customers regularly send tax-free gifts right up to New Year's Eve.
Paying by invoice over the holidays? Payments clear on business days only, so 25 and 26 December and 1 January don't count. For delivery on those days, pay by card.
Our support team is here 9:30am to 6pm on business days, including over Christmas.

Why staff prefer it
Their choice
70+ Irish brands across fashion, food, home, travel and experiences, or a donation to a good cause.
No fees
Nothing to buy, nothing to use, and the full balance stays valid for five years.
No app, no account
It opens straight from their email or text, and brand cards can be added to Apple or Google Wallet where supported.
Spend it their way
They can split it across brands, save some for later or regift part of it.
Prefer a Mastercard? Recipients can choose the Hollr Mastercard option, which works anywhere Mastercard is accepted. A €0.25 transaction fee applies only if they choose it. It can't be used at an ATM or for cash back, so it stays within the Small Benefit rules.
