Buy a gift from a shared GiftList
Open the list link, choose an available gift and buy it from the retailer. Then return to GiftList and choose Mark as purchased so other shoppers know what you bought. You do not need a GiftList account.
Create a list and add or edit gifts
Create a free GiftList account, make a list, then add gifts using product links, product search or a manual entry. GiftList fills in details when available; you can correct them before or after saving.
Undo a reservation or purchased mark
You can release your own GiftList reservation using the unreserve link in your confirmation email or the gift's undo controls. This makes your recorded quantity available again. It does not cancel a retailer order or issue a refund.
Share your GiftList by link or QR code
Open your list and use Share to send its link. People can open the link and shop without creating a GiftList account. If you added a list password, they will need that too.
Join Secret Santa and find your match
Open your invitation and use a free GiftList account to join and view your assigned recipient. You can see whom you drew after the organizer draws names. A shared wishlist can be shopped without an account, but a Secret Santa match requires sign-in.
Sign in and find your existing lists
Use the same account and sign-in method you used when creating your lists. If My Lists is empty, check the account before making a replacement; signing in with another email or provider may open a different GiftList account.
