Why an online advent calendar works so well for teams

A chocolate calendar on every desk only reaches the people who sit at a desk. A digital calendar works on every phone, so drivers, carers, shop staff and remote colleagues open the same door on the same morning. One link in the intranet, the team chat or the payslip email is enough, nobody needs an account.

Behind the doors you mix what matters to your company: a personal thank-you from management, a team quiz, the menu vote for the Christmas party, a voucher for the staff shop, wellbeing tips for the dark season and a raffle on the last day. Statistics from Premium show you which doors were opened most, so next year's calendar gets even better.

Reaches everyone

Office, warehouse, field service or night shift: the calendar opens in any browser, without app or login.

Ready in an afternoon

Pick a template, fill 24 doors with text, photos, videos, quizzes and surveys, share one link. You can plan all doors in advance.

Budget friendly

Instead of 24 physical gifts per person you offer digital moments, vouchers and a few bigger prizes in a raffle.

Ideas for your 24 doors

Twelve ideas to mix and match. The number shows a door where the idea fits well, the label shows the door type.

The calendar is only visible to people who have the link. With Enterprise you can also protect it with a password.

Which door types can I use?

Text and video doors are free. From Premium you add images, links, vouchers, quizzes, surveys, events, raffles, downloads and music.

Can several colleagues work on it?

Plan the content together, then one person enters it. All doors can be prepared in advance and are unlocked day by day automatically.
