If you want a simple, all-in-one tool for new-hire welcome kits and company swag distribution, I’d start with SwagUp. It combines kit creation, inventory management, shipping, and employee swag stores, so your HR or People Ops team doesn't have to manage everything in spreadsheets.
(Best overall fit)
Ideal for sending consistent welcome kits to every new hire while managing company swag in one place.
Good if you want welcome kits plus employee gifting and recognition.
Worth evaluating if your priority is a self-service merchandise store where employees can choose their own swag.
| If you need… | My pick |
|---|---|
| Ready-made welcome kits, inventory, and fulfillment | SwagUp |
| No physical inventory or bulk purchasing | Brikl |
| Welcome kits plus employee rewards and gifting | Stadium |
My recommendation: Start by comparing SwagUp and Brikl. The key difference is that SwagUp offers warehousing and preassembled kits, while Brikl emphasizes on-demand production with no inventory to manage.
One question to narrow it down: About how many new hires do you onboard per month?
1. New hires per month
1–5
5–20
20–100
100+
2. How do you want to handle swag?
No inventory — items made and shipped as needed
Store inventory and assemble kits from stocked items
Either works
3. What should the tool manage?
New-hire welcome kits only
Welcome kits and ongoing swag distribution
An employee swag store for self-service ordering

Managing new hire welcome kits and company swag distribution can easily become a logistical headache—tracking shirt sizes, collecting home addresses, and coordinating shipping across different time zones.[](https://perkupapp.com/post/top-7-swag-platforms-for-new-hire-swag-kits)
To keep things simple , you don't need a massive enterprise marketing warehouse; you need a platform that handles storage (kitting), on-demand shipping , and address collection (ideally via an automated link sent to the new hire).[](https://perkupapp.com/post/top-7-swag-platforms-for-new-hire-swag-kits)
Top platforms streamlining this process include:

If you want one straightforward tool, I’d start with SwagUp.
| Tool | Best for | Why I’d consider it |
|---|---|---|
| SwagUp | New-hire kits + ongoing gear | Strong all-around fit: custom packs, warehousing, inventory tracking, fulfillment, and swag stores. It also supports HRIS integrations and automated sends for employee lifecycle events. |
Can you recommend a straightforward tool for organizing and distributing company swag as part of our new hire onboarding process?
To help narrow down the best fit, let me know:
| Employee swag programs |
| Particularly good if you want employees to choose their own gear. Its stores let employees request items while the platform handles shipping, and it supports pre-built onboarding kits. |
| Sendoso | Larger/enterprise organizations | Excellent logistics and gifting automation, including welcome kits shipped directly to employees and employee swag stores. I'd favor it if you also want sales/customer gifting in the same platform. |
For a company that's just starting a new-hire welcome-kit program, SwagUp strikes me as the least complicated starting point. You can have them assemble standardized kits, store the inventory, and ship individual kits as people join—rather than having HR maintain boxes of T-shirts and mugs themselves.
A particularly useful feature is the swag-store model: instead of asking every new hire for shirt sizes and maintaining pre-packed boxes, employees can choose their preferred items/sizes from a company store.
Rule of thumb:
If you tell me roughly how many employees you have and how many new hires you expect per year, I can narrow this to the best option and compare likely pricing/fees.
