How GlobeIn Works

Each month, GlobeIn introduces a new curated box filled with handmade products from around the world. As a subscriber, you get to tailor your experience with a preview of the box theme, whereupon you can decide to keep it, swap it, or skip it. When you’re box arrives, you can enjoy your unique items, and the feeling that comes with playing a part in the reduction of global poverty.

Examples of Past GlobeIn Boxes

• Sanctuary Box: All you need to build your sanctuary for soothing tea-time, anytime. Includes 4 Green Tea Glasses, Set of 4 Oceana Raffia Coasters and a container of Peppermint Detox Tea with Spoon

Pricing Options

Pricing is based on the length of your subscription: a 3-month subscription is $40/month, a 6-month subscription is $37/month, and a 12 month subscription is $35/month.

GlobeIn Pros and Cons

Pros

• The box features unique artisan home goods that can’t be found in stores
• You’ll be supporting small artisans from all over the world, and fighting global poverty in the process

Cons

• Not every item will be coordinated to the same aesthetic, which means you might need to be open to a more eclectic assortment around your home
• The minimum subscription length is 3 months, and subscribers are made to meet that cost up-front, which may be steep for some, however there are opportunities to skip a month should the theme not appeal to you or if you’d like to space out the expenditure

How GlobeIn Compares to Other Top Subscriptions

GlobeIn VS Alltrue: There aren’t many subscription boxes out there like GlobeIn, but Alltrue comes close. With Alltrue, you’ll receive socially-conscious curated personal products in your boxes – so instead of getting a stunning handmade fan, you might get a stunning handbag, a doormat, and skincare products. Similar to GlobeIn, with Alltrue you will also be helping small artisans and artists around the world when you purchase a subscription box. Price-wise, the key difference between these two subscriptions is that with GlobeIn, you’re committing to a minimum of 3 months, and you’re made to meet that cost upfront. With Alltrue’s quarterly box, the non-annual subscriber will pay $54.95 per box, compared to GlobeIn’s $40 per box price (based on a 3 month subscription).
