How it works

An exchange that runs itself — from invite to delivered gift

Giftlee handles the awkward parts: fair matching, private wishlists, masked addresses and timely reminders. You just enjoy the gifts.

For organizers

Four steps to a drama-free exchange

Everything an organizer needs lives on one page — participants, exclusions, reminders and the draw.

  1. Step 1

    Set up the exchange

    Name it, pick the occasion, set a budget range and the key dates. Rules and description support full formatting, so your group knows exactly what to expect.

  2. Step 2

    Invite your group

    Share one invite link or code. People can join from any device, and you can require approval if the group should stay closed.

  3. Step 3

    Draw names

    Matching runs on the server with your exclusion rules applied — nobody draws themselves, nobody draws an excluded partner, and no one (including you) sees the full list.

  4. Step 4

    Keep it moving

    Send reminders, watch gift progress roll in, and step in only when someone needs a nudge. Every important moment also goes out by email.

For participants

Join, wish, gift, done

No spreadsheets, no group-chat chaos, no accidentally spoiling the surprise.

  1. Step 1

    Join in seconds

    Open the invite link, create an account or log in, and you're in the exchange — no app to install.

  2. Step 2

    Build your wishlist

    Add ideas, links and sizes so your gifter isn't guessing. Update it any time before the draw closes.

  3. Step 3

    See your match

    Once names are drawn, your giftee appears on the exchange page with their wishlist and preferences.

  4. Step 4

    Track the gift

    Mark it purchased, shipped and delivered. Your giftee sees progress without ever learning who you are.

Privacy by default

The secret stays secret

Addresses stay masked

Shipping details are hidden by default and only revealed to the assigned gifter — with the reveal logged.

Anonymous questions

Ask your giftee about sizes or preferences through an anonymous thread that never exposes your name.

No surprises for organizers

Organizers manage the event and deadlines, not the secret. Match pairs are never listed anywhere.
