How to share your wishlist with friends and family

Share your wishlist by copying its link from the share menu and sending it to anyone — they can open and view it without an account.

Written by Wishpicks

To share your wishlist, open the share menu, copy the link, and send it to anyone — by message, email, or any app you like. People you send it to can open and view your wishlist without creating an account.

Steps

  1. Open your wishlist and choose Share.

  2. Copy the link (or use one of the share options to send it directly).

  3. Send the link to friends and family however you like — chat, email, or social apps.

  4. They open the link and see your wishlist — its name, description, and all your wishes. They can Reserve a gift so others know it's taken.

Before you share

Anyone with the link can open a wishlist that's Public or Anyone with the link without signing in — no account needed to view. Reserving may need an account, depending on your settings. See "How do I make sure my friends can reserve a gift?".

  • Sharing a link is for viewing, not editing. To let someone help manage your list, invite them by email and give them an access level. See "How do I invite another person to edit my wishlist?".

  • Private wishlists work differently. A plain link won't open an Invite only wishlist — for those you invite specific people by email. See "How to share a private wishlist".

  • By default you don't see which gifts have been reserved, so sharing your list doesn't spoil what you'll get. See "Can I hide reserved gifts from myself?".

  • Keep personal details off a shared list. A wishlist has no address field, and anyone with the link can view it, so coordinate delivery privately rather than posting your address. See "How to safely share delivery details".
