You started with a spreadsheet. Now nobody knows who gave what, thank-yous go unsent, and staff spend hours chasing information that should be automatic.
Amazon wish lists push products you didn't ask for, show ads alongside your items, and give you no way to communicate with donors or coordinate across teams.
Giftwhale was built to fix this. Your lists, your donors, your team, one dashboard. No ads, no clutter, no hidden costs.
Add items from any website or store, grouped by department or campaign.
Send a single link. Donors browse and choose what to give, no account needed.
Items are marked as reserved so other donors can see what's still needed.
See who gave what, send thank-you messages, and build donor history.
Giftwhale has really helped the Zoo work with the wish lists more collaboratively through departments and made the process easier as well. It's lightened the workload and made it so it's easier for the keepers and other employees to update their own items as needed.
Collect food, enrichment items, and veterinary supplies from your community.
Manage classroom supplies and equipment wish lists across departments.
Share exactly what's needed with your donor community, updated in real time.
Coordinate gift drives, toy collections, and seasonal appeals with ease.
Accept comfort items and patient supplies from generous supporters.
Manage donations across congregations and outreach programmes.
Whether you have 10 supporters or 10,000, the platform works the same way.
Know who gave what. Thank them properly.
You don't know who gave what. Thank-you messages go unsent. Loyal supporters feel invisible. Giftwhale tracks every donation against the person who gave it, so you can build real relationships with the people who support your cause.

Stop being the bottleneck
One person manages everything. They're overwhelmed. Other staff can't help without sharing login details. Giftwhale lets you invite team members with the right level of access, so departments can manage their own wish lists while you keep oversight of everything.
Amazon wish lists were designed for consumers, not organisations. Here's what changes when you switch.
No premium tier. No "contact us for pricing." No hidden costs after you grow. Every feature on this page is available to every organisation, from day one.
Most organisations are up and running within minutes. Create an account, add your first wish list, and share the link. If you have a large catalogue of items, get in touch and we can help with bulk import.
Drop us a line at hello@giftwhale.com. We're a small team and we reply to every message. Or if you'd prefer, tell us a bit about your organisation and we'll get back to you.
Create a free Giftwhale account and set up your first wish list in minutes. Your supporters will thank you. (And you'll be able to thank them back.)
