Tax Benefits

Giving Gifts to Clients
A company can give a WRA gift certificate up to $25 to a customer and it is a 100% tax deductible business expense.  If the gift certificate is over $25, only the first $25 is deductible.

Business-to-Business Gifts
If the gift certificate is given to a company rather than an individual, then the gift is 100% tax deductible regardless of price.

Employee Incentives & Recognition
A business that gives WRA gift certificates to its employees can take a 100% tax deduction ONLY if the value of the certificate is added to the employee's W-2 form as income. Otherwise, the gift is non-tax-deductible.
