Instead of redeeming your Guusto gift for a merchant gift card, you can donate the funds to a charity of your choice that accepts donations.
If you’re in the U.S., you can also choose to use the Charity on Top (U.S.) donation path, which gives you access to over 1.8 million charities!
Option 1: Donate to a Charity of Your Choice (for Canadian users)
1. Claim your gift from your email or text notification as you normally do.
2. Go to Redeem Gifts in your Guusto account.
3. On the Redeem Gifts page, select the gift you want to use.
4. Enter the amount you’d like to redeem, then click Select Merchant.
6. In the pop-up, enter the URL of the charity you want to support (ensure the charity accepts credit-card donations) and then click Confirm.
7. Back on the Redeem Gifts page, select that gift again.
8. Once the transaction is processed, you’ll be able to view your digital donation receipt here.
Note: The charity you choose must accept credit‐card donations for this to work.
Option 2: U.S. Only — Use Charity on Top
If you are eligible in the U.S., you can redeem your gift via the “Charity on Top” merchant for access to a wide range of charities.
1. Claim your gift from your email or text notification.
2. Navigate to Redeem Gifts.
3. Select the desired gift from the Redeem Gifts page.
4. Enter the redemption amount and click Select Merchant.
5. Choose “Charity on Top” as the merchant.
6. View your gift card number.
7. Visit charityontop.org and click Redeem Cards.
8. Enter your card number from Guusto.
9. Choose one of over 1.8 million charities and complete the donation!
