FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a charity gift list or digital giving tree?

A charity gift list is a shareable list of the items a nonprofit, school, shelter, or community drive needs, so supporters know what to give. It works like a digital giving tree: instead of paper tags pinned to a board, each need lives on one online list. A food pantry, animal rescue, classroom, or holiday toy drive can combine items from different retailers in one focused list.

Because the list is not tied to a single store, you can mix everyday supplies, big-ticket equipment, gift cards, and cash needs on one page. Supporters claim what they want to cover, and claimed items are marked for other supporters, so the group can see what is still outstanding instead of doubling up on one need.

Why use GiftList to run your nonprofit wish list?

Create and share a GiftList nonprofit wishlist for free, with no credit card required to start. Add needed items from different stores, mark top priorities as Most Wanted, and let supporters view or claim an item without an account. Claim tracking shows what is already covered when supporters open the list, making duplicate purchases less likely.

Share your giving tree by link, email, text, or social media, or add it to a newsletter and donation page. The Gift Tracker shows claims and purchases to help with thank-you notes and follow-up. Cash funds use supported external payment methods; GiftList records contributions but does not process or hold the payment, and provider terms may apply.

How does a nonprofit set up a charity gift list?

Start by creating a free GiftList account and a list for your cause, drive, or event. Add items with product links or manual entry, browse Gift Ideas, or ask Genie for suggestions. Give the list a clear title and cover image, and flag urgent needs as Most Wanted so supporters know where to start.

When your list is ready, share it with a single link, send it by email or social media, or add it to your newsletter and donation page to start collecting donations. As supporters claim items, the list records what is covered and what is still open, so you can see where the gaps are. You can also invite teammates to collaborate on the same list, which is ideal for chapters, classrooms, and volunteer committees running a drive together.

GiftList makes it easy to exchange gifts with friends and family for any occasion, including birthdays, Christmas, holidays, weddings, baby registries, and more! To get started, sign up for a free GiftList account, create a gift list, add items from any site, and share your list with friends and family. GiftList is gifting made easy.

Yes! GiftList is free for everyone.

GiftList is a wishlist and registry service where members link to products they want. To buy a gift, click "Buy" to visit a third-party retailer and complete your purchase. Then, return to GiftList to mark the item as purchased to prevent others from buying the same gift. GiftList doesn’t handle payments, shipping, or gift wrapping—these are managed by the retailer. After marking an item as purchased, you’ll get a confirmation email from notifications@giftlist.com with a link to unreserve the gift if needed. Your personal information won’t be shared with the list owner unless they reveal their gifts and will never be used for marketing.

No account is needed to view a shared list or reserve a gift (mark it as purchased) — gift givers can do everything important as guests. You can also browse Gift Ideas and our gift guides without signing up. You'll need a free account to create your own lists, participate in a group gift exchange, follow friends, and get occasion reminders.

Yes! GiftList is a universal gift registry. Unlike an Amazon wish list, GiftList allows you to add items from any site or retailer.
