A child's birthday: one list for the parents' group
For a child's party you usually invite parents from kindergarten or school who write in one group chat and don't always know each other. You paste the list link there. Every parent sees what is still free, reserves with one tap and doesn't have to ask anyone. In the note for guests, add clothing sizes, favorite colors or what your child already has too much of.
An item can have several pieces, e.g. books from the same series - guests reserve them one by one.
Adult birthdays: a milestone without guesswork
For a 30th, 40th or 50th, a wishlist saves guests the searching and saves you from gifts you don't need. Add links to specific products and prices - guests match the gift to their budget themselves. If you prefer a surprise, ask someone close to create the list for you.
Chipping in for a bigger gift
A bike, a scooter or a dream camera is a group gift. You tick "Chip in together" on the item, guests join, and once the group is closed everyone sees how much to send and to which bank account or BLIK number of the buyer. yay.gift never touches the money.
A surprise when unwrapping
As the organizer you only see how many pieces are free - not who bought what. Guests can also make a riddle about their gift, and you get three guesses at what's in the box.
How to make a good birthday list
- Add gifts at different prices so every guest finds something within their budget.
- Give every item a price and a link - it's easier for guests to buy exactly the right thing.
- Add things needed in several pieces (books, building sets from a series) as one item with a quantity.
- Mark a pricier gift as a group gift instead of taking it off the list.
