Gift Crowd

About Gift Crowd

Too many toys, not enough time, and a gift nobody was sure about. Sound familiar?

Gift Crowd makes it easy for parents to give together - simple, low-pressure, and done in minutes.

How it works

Create your party page. Add your child's name, the date, and their birthday wish.

Send the invite. A short WhatsApp message with a link. Guests RSVP on the page and see the gift option once they've confirmed.

Guests choose freely. They can participate in the group gift or simply come and celebrate. Both options are always equally visible.

Contributions are anonymous. Nobody knows who gave what.

Ask a friend to take the lead (optional). Pass the gift share message to someone you trust - they send it to the group, like a proper gift champion!

A group gift can also be...

🌱 A friendship garden
Each guest brings a small plant or seed packet. Together, everyone plants a friendship garden - a living reminder of the people who came to celebrate.

📚 A book swap
Guests bring a favourite book and take one home from the birthday child's collection. Stories shared, stories discovered.

🔧 Toy repair workshop
Guests bring a broken toy. A repair expert helps children fix and upcycle them - creativity, sustainability, and a lot of fun.

FAQ

How do I set a contribution limit?

When setting up the gift, you choose a maximum amount per person. Guests can contribute anything up to that amount - or nothing at all.

Will guests know what others contributed?

No. Contributions are anonymised by default. Neither the host nor other guests can see individual amounts - only the total collected.

What if more money is raised than needed?

Any surplus can go to a charity of your child's choice.

What if a guest prefers to just come and celebrate?

Guests are free to join the group gift or simply show up and enjoy the party.
