What information is visible to guests?

Guests see a wishlist's name, images, and wishes — notes and store links too — but not your contact details. Reservations stay hidden until you reveal them.

Written by Wishpicks

Guests see the wishlist's name, description and images, plus every wish on it. For each wish that means the name, price, images, notes, store link, tags, availability and priority. Their view is read-only.

What guests can see

  • The wishlist name, description and cover image.

  • Each wish, including its notes and the store link it came from.

  • Whether an item is reserved, but only if you've turned on Reveal reservations. That's off by default.

What guests can't see or do

Guests can't add, edit or delete wishes, and they can't change any settings.

They also never see contact or delivery details, because Wishpicks doesn't have those fields. There's no delivery address, phone number or recipient name anywhere on a wishlist. The only exception is anything you type into a note yourself.

Reservations are quiet in both directions. You don't see that items were reserved unless you reveal them, and a guest who tries to reserve something already taken is simply told it's reserved. Guests never learn who took it, and you only see the reserver's name if your reservation privacy is set to Registered User Reservations.

Good to know

Notes are visible to guests, so keep anything private out of them. If you need to sort out delivery, wording like "message me for delivery details" does the job. Gift-givers buy the item at the store and arrange delivery with you directly, so send any address privately.

On an Invite only list, none of this is visible to anyone but you and the people you invited. Everyone else gets a "No Access" page, and even the link preview is hidden.

Guests see exactly the same thing on a Public list as on an Anyone with the link one. The only difference is how people find the list.
