How do I sign in — which login methods are supported?

Sign in with Google, Facebook, or an emailed magic link. There's no email-and-password login. You can also browse as a guest without an account.

You sign in with Google, Facebook, or an emailed magic link — there's no email-and-password login. You can also browse and reserve gifts as a guest without signing in at all.

Steps

  1. Go to the sign-in page on Wishpicks.

  2. Choose a method:

    • Continue with Google — uses your Google account.

    • Continue with Facebook — uses your Facebook account.

    • Email me a link — enter your email and we'll send a magic sign-in link. Open the email and click the link to finish.

  3. The first time you sign in, your account is created automatically. After that, the same method signs you back in.

Worth knowing

  • No password. Wishpicks doesn't use email-and-password login, so there's nothing to remember or reset. You sign in with Google, Facebook, or a fresh magic link each time.

  • The magic link is your verification. Clicking it both signs you in and confirms your email — there's no separate verification step. The link expires after about an hour, so open it soon.

  • Browsing as a guest. You can view a shared wishlist, and reserve a gift when the owner allows it, without an account. If you create an account later in the same browser, the wishlists and reservations you made as a guest carry over. On a different device or after clearing cookies, they won't be linked unless you saved a recovery link first.

If your Google and Facebook logins use the same email, they lead to a single Wishpicks account; different emails lead to different accounts. Signing in with Apple isn't available yet, so for now use Google, Facebook, or a magic link.

Most sign-in trouble comes from switching method or email, so use the same one next time. If you're stuck, see "I can't log in — what should I check?" If your magic-link email didn't arrive, see "I didn't receive an email — what now?"
