Our Vision

Gild was born out of a simple question: why are we still writing paper checks in a world where everything else is done digitally, securely, and with the tap of a button?

After attending countless weddings in their early twenties, our founders realized how outdated and inconvenient the process of gifting had become — running to the store for a card, writing a check, and hoping it made its way safely into the gift box after being handed off to the bride’s grandma, uncle, or wedding planner. It was time-consuming, expensive, and far from seamless.

When they hosted their own events, the other side of the experience was no better. Managing a box full of cash and checks, tracking who gave what, and making endless post-event bank trips was a logistical headache.

It’s time to ditch the checks and cards and embrace a way to give that’s just as classy, personal, and thoughtful, without the hassle.

That’s why they built Gild — a modern, elegant solution for giving and receiving cash gifts. Whether it’s a wedding, or anyother meaningful celebration, Gild lets guests send money directly to the host’s bank account — securely, seamlessly, and with a personal touch.

What is Gild?
Gild was born out of a simple question: why are we still writing checks in 2025 to celebrate life’s biggest moments? Gild is a modern, elegant solution for giving cash gifts that mark life’s most meaningful milestones. Whether it’s a wedding, a bar or bat mitzvah, or any special celebration, Gild makes it effortless for guests to send money directly to the host’s bank account—securely, seamlessly, and with a personal touch. Each gift can be paired with a thoughtful message, ensuring your gesture feels warm and intentional. No more checks. No more lost envelopes. No more post-event deposit marathons. Just gifting, elevated.
Create your Gild event page in minutes. Share your personalized link or QR code with guests. Guests send cash gifts securely online. Funds are deposited directly into your bank account.
Absolutely. Gild partners with trusted, industry-leading payment processors to ensure every transaction is encrypted and secure. Your financial details—and your guests’ payment information—are always protected.
Guests can use any standard payment method, including credit card, debit card, or Apple Pay. Additionally, they can provide their bank account details and pay via direct deposit to avoid credit card processing fees.
No apps. No accounts. No friction. Guests simply scan your QR code or click your Gild link, choose a gift amount, add a personal message, and send. It’s that easy. If guests would like to create an account to keep track of all the gifts they’ve sent, they have the option to do so.
No problem. Every event on Gild is searchable by the event name and date, so guests can easily find and send their gift without worry.
Gild keeps things simple and transparent. Hosts pay a one-time subscription fee to create and manage their event. Guests pay a small service fee per transaction when sending their gift. But really—can you put a price on convenience? On not having to write a check, buy a card, or spend hours depositing envelopes after your celebration? Or the peace of mind knowing there isn’t a gift box filled with thousands of dollars sitting out in the open while you’re dancing the night away? Gild replaces outdated stress with seamless, secure joy. That’s what we call gifting, elevated.
You have the flexibility to cash out of Gild and deposit the funds into your bank account any time and as often as you would like. From there, it typically takes 1–2 business days for the deposits to arrive, depending on your bank.
