SharePoint & Teams
Smarter Secret Santa
Secret Santa for your team, organised automatically.
The gift exchange app for SharePoint and Microsoft Teams: participants sign up themselves, assignments are drawn automatically – and the app is available for free on the Microsoft Marketplace.
Create, assign, gift
Smarter Secret Santa keeps the organisation of your gift exchange in one place – from registration deadline to reveal.
- 1
Set up a game
Define budget, registration deadline and reveal date, and decide when the secret assignments are disclosed.
- 2
Automatic assignment
The algorithm distributes assignments fairly and at random: everyone gives to exactly one person and receives from exactly one person.
- 3
Central management
Keep track of participants and progress, and reveal all assignments at the end with a single click.
Easy participation for everyone
Employees sign up themselves and take part in the game without any additional administrative effort.
After the draw, each participant only sees their own assignment – the surprise is kept until the reveal.
Draw with one click
Once all participants have registered, the organiser starts the draw. Assignments are circular – no one is left out and no one receives two gifts.
Why Smarter Secret Santa?
Foster team building
A shared gift exchange strengthens cohesion – across departments and locations as well.
Fair assignment
The circular assignment ensures that no one is left out and no one is gifted twice.
