Everyone adds what they want. Everyone sees what's already taken. No more duplicate gifts, no more guessing.
Without coordination, two people buy the same thing. Someone ends up returning a gift.
Nobody wants to ask "what do you want?" but nobody wants to guess wrong either.
Important dates slip by. You end up panic-buying last minute — or missing them entirely.
Three simple steps to make every occasion effortless.
Create a list in under a minute. Add a name, pick your occasion, and share it with the people who need it.
Paste any link and Giftwhale fills in the details. Add from Amazon, Etsy, John Lewis, local shops — anywhere.

Our whole family uses Gift Whale for birthdays, special occasions like Mother’s and Father’s Day, Christmas, etc. to know what we all really want. It’s such a perfect, simple way to be able to get the perfect gifts for your loved ones and to keep track of which items have already been purchased. It’s like an in-store gift registry but way less complicated! We love it and have used it for a few years now!.

Giftwhale is a very easy way for me to create wishlists for certain events while not having to spend hours doing so. I've had giftwhale for about a year now and I've used giftwhale for every event of mine that I could have a wishlist for or alits of stuff that needs to be gotten for parties or etc. Overall giftwhale is a very useful app but I wish somethings were a little bit easier to access through giftwhale..
