DMC Referral Partnership
We deeply value the creativity and care that goes into destination planning, and we’re honored to be part of the experience when it comes to thoughtful, branded gifting.
With that, we'd like to take a moment to clarify how we support our partners, especially when requests are part of a competitive bid:
Sourcing vs. Curating
- Sourcing: If you already have a clear vision—specific items, quantities, or budget—we’re happy to provide pricing and fulfillment details at no cost or commitment.
-
Curating: When you're seeking creative direction, themed concepts, or custom gift set development based on limited criteria, this involves a deeper investment of time and resources.
We treat curation as a dedicated service, and as such, we reserve it for confirmed projects or those with a formal deposit or commitment.
We understand that many DMCs are bidding on behalf of clients, and while we want to support your efforts, we also need to protect the integrity of our creative process.
A New Way to Partner
To make collaboration more seamless and rewarding, we now offer a referral-based gifting model:
- You refer your client directly to boxthecity for gifting.
- We handle all creative development, client communication, and fulfillment.
- You receive 20% commission* on all orders placed by your client.
This approach ensures your client receives the highest level of service and customization, while you benefit from a successful gifting experience—without the burden of speculative creative work.
We’re excited to continue building meaningful partnerships and would love to explore this model with you on your next opportunity.
