Sharing and reservations

How guests reserve a gift

Open a shared wishlist, choose an available item, and reserve it without spoiling the surprise.

Reserve an available gift

  1. Open the shared link

    The link identifies the wishlist and the access you were given.

  2. Choose an available product

    Review the product details and retailer link before deciding.

  3. Reserve or claim the gift

    Follow the reservation prompt. If you are not signed in, enter the identity details requested for this shared list.

  4. Check the confirmation

    The product updates so other gift-givers can avoid buying the same item.

Who sees the reservation

The recipient does not see reservation details intended to preserve the surprise. Other eligible gift-givers can see that the item is no longer freely available.

If you cannot reserve an item

  • Confirm that you opened the complete link.
  • Refresh the list in case another guest reserved it first.
  • Ask the owner or organiser for a fresh link if access has expired or been revoked.
