Everything you need to give brilliantly

Wishpile replaces the notes app, the spreadsheet, and the mental load - one place for every gift list, wishlist, and budget you juggle.

Lists with countdowns

Christmas, birthdays, weddings - make a gift list for every occasion and watch the countdown, so nothing sneaks up on you.

Idea → bought → wrapped

Track every gift from idea to bought to wrapped to done, with progress you can read at a glance.

Budgets that behave

Set a budget per person, see spent and remaining instantly - and hide the totals from curious eyes.

Family wishlists

Create a family group where everyone shares what they actually want. No more guessing. No more panic gift cards.

Plan together, in secret

Invite your partner to co-plan. Share one gift list and budget - and still never spoil each other's surprises.

Chip in on a gift

Going in on a present together? Track who's splitting the cost and add a coordinator who can help manage the gift.

Secret Santa, done right

Draw names fairly, add exclusions (no, you can't draw your spouse), and reveal assignments privately.

Made for families (and their secrets)

One organized person is good. A whole family organized is a holiday miracle. Wishpile groups keep everyone's wishlists in one place - grandparents included - while keeping every surprise safe. Claim a gift secretly and nobody double-buys; the wishlist owner never sees a thing.

Questions, answered

Everything about planning, sharing, and keeping the surprises safe.

Getting started

Is Wishpile free?

Yes - Wishpile is free during early access. If we introduce paid plans later, we'll give you clear advance notice, you'll never be charged unless you actively opt in, and we intend to keep core everyday features free.

Do I need to download an app?

No app store required. Wishpile runs in your phone's browser - add it to your home screen and it behaves just like a native app. It works great on desktop too.

Do the people I’m shopping for need an account?

No. You can track gifts for anyone just by adding their name. For shared family wishlists, people can join with a free account or a simple invite link - even grandparents who’d rather not sign up for anything.

Privacy & surprises

Can the people I’m planning for see their gifts?

Never. Your gift lists, budgets, and plans are private to you. People only ever see the wishlists they’re meant to - Wishpile automatically hides anything that would spoil their own surprise.

How do you keep surprises safe?

It’s built into the core of the app. When someone is connected to a wishlist, Wishpile hides the gifts, claims, and spending meant for them - even from a partner you co-plan with. They see what they’ve asked for; they never see what’s coming.

Is my data private? Do you sell it?

Your data belongs to your account, protected by per-user security rules, and we don’t sell it - ever. You stay in control of your lists and can remove them any time.

Family, groups & households

How do family wishlists work?

Create a family group and everyone adds what they’d actually love. You see the whole family’s wishes in one place, quietly claim what you’ll buy, and nobody double-buys - because claims stay hidden from the person receiving.

Can I plan gifts with my partner?

Yes - that’s a household. You and your partner co-plan from one shared gift list and budget, seeing each other’s ideas and spending, while Wishpile still hides the gifts meant for each of you.

Can grandparents and kids join without being techy?

Absolutely. Invite anyone by link and they can add a wishlist without installing a thing - perfect for grandparents and kids.

Do my lists carry over year to year?

Yes. Your family group stays put; each year you simply point it at a new occasion. Last year’s wishlists and gifts are preserved as history, so you can always look back at what you gave.

Gifts & shopping

Can I split a gift with someone?

Yes. Track who chipped in and how much, and you can promote a connected person to a coordinator so they can see and help manage the gift too - great for group presents.

Does pasting a link really fill in the gift?

Drop in a product link and Wishpile grabs the name, price, and photo automatically, so building a list takes seconds.

Can I save receipts and photos?

Every gift can hold photos and receipts, so returns and reimbursements are painless.

What do the gift stages mean?

Each gift moves from idea to bought to wrapped to done, so a single glance tells you exactly what’s left to do.

Secret Santa

How does Secret Santa work?

Add participants, set exclusions (couples don’t draw each other), and draw. Everyone sees only their own assignment - even the organizer can keep theirs a surprise. Add a date and location so everyone’s on the same page.

Budgets & reminders

How do budgets work?

Set a budget per person - or a shared household budget - and watch spent and remaining update as you go. Curious eyes nearby? Hide the totals with a tap.

Will Wishpile email me?

Only if you want. Optional updates let you know when your group gets new wishes, plus a gentle weekly reminder as an occasion approaches. Turn them off any time in your profile.

Still have a question?

How do I get in touch?

Email support@wishpile.com and a real person will get back to you - questions, bugs, feature ideas, all welcome.
