Still got questions? We’ve got answers – and they’re much better than socks.
Is Wishes & Wants really free?
Yes! 100% free. No sneaky fees, no subscriptions, and no surprise invoices. We're here to make gifting easier for everyone – without charging you for the pleasure.
Do I need to create an account?
Nope! You can create and share a gift list without registering. But if you’d like to save your lists, edit them later, or use our AI gift assistant more fully, you might want to sign up – it’s quick and painless.
What kind of occasions can I use this for?
Any and all! Birthdays, weddings, baby showers, Christmas, housewarmings, graduations, divorces (yes, really) – even a “just because I deserve nice things” list. If someone might buy you a gift, you’re in the right place.
Can I use this to find gifts for someone else?
Yes! Our smart little AI gift finder is designed to help you discover thoughtful, personalised gift ideas for the people in your life. Just answer a few questions and let the magic happen.
How do I share my gift list?
Easy-peasy. Once you’ve created a list, you’ll get a special link you can copy and share via text, WhatsApp, email, carrier pigeon – whatever works for your crowd.
Can people buy directly through the site?
Not quite - we link out to trusted retailers where your gifts can be purchased. That way, you get the exact thing you wanted, and they can buy from a shop they know. Win-win!
Do you track what’s been bought?
At the moment, no - but we’re working on it. For now, people buying from your list will need to let you know (or not, if they’re going for the surprise angle).
Is my data safe with you?
Yes. We only collect what we need to make the site work, and we never sell your data. Have a peek at our Privacy Policy for the full lowdown.
Can I make multiple lists?
Absolutely! You can have a birthday list, a wedding registry, a Christmas wishlist - go wild. You deserve nice things all year round.
Who’s behind Wishes & Wants?
We’re a small UK-based team with big feelings about bad gifts. We built this site to help people actually get what they want - and avoid the awkward return queue.
