How do I change my notification and email preferences (and turn off emails)?

Manage your email toggles in Settings → Notifications, or use the Unsubscribe link in any email. That's where you turn optional emails on or off.

Written by Wishpicks

Your email toggles live in Settings → Notifications. Every optional email also carries an Unsubscribe link at the bottom, which does the same job without a trip to Settings.

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Notifications.

  2. Switch on or off whichever you care about:

    • Price drop alerts: an email when a tracked wish gets cheaper. Off until you turn it on, and switching it back off asks you to confirm.

    • Weekly price recap: a savings summary. Part of Wishpicks Plus, so you'll be asked to upgrade if you're on the free plan.

    • Gift reservations: a digest of reservation activity on your lists. On by default.

    • Event reminders: nudges tied to a wishlist's event date. On by default.

    • Product news: occasional updates about Wishpicks. Off by default in many countries.

  3. Most changes save as you make them.

About price-drop alerts

These come by email only. There's no bell notification for a price drop, and they're never instant: drops get batched, so on Plus you'll see a couple of emails a day at most, and on the free plan one every few days at most. Wishpicks only watches for prices going down, so there's no email when a sold-out item comes back either. The bell feed covers other things, like someone reserving a gift on your list, or a nudge to come back to a list you left behind.

Emails you can't switch off

Service emails go out regardless. Your magic sign-in link, payment-failure notices, and other messages tied to running your account all fall under this, and the toggles above don't touch them.

Good to know

Event reminders are the anniversary emails attached to a wishlist. They go out about two weeks before the list's event date, or before its creation anniversary if there's no event date set. Turn off Event reminders to stop them, or use the Unsubscribe link on one.

Your country sets the Product news default. Some countries start it off until you opt in, others start it on until you opt out, and moving between them can flip it. You can set it either way yourself.

There's no self-serve data export. If you need your settings or data pulled out, contact support. We answer on business days, so weekend and holiday messages get picked up the next working day.
