What the software does
Wishlists:
- Create private wishlists and wishes with a title, product link, notes, price and up to three images.
- Order wishes, group them into wishlists and add an occasion and date.
- Publish a wishlist and share one link; people with the link can view it without an account.
- Let friends reserve a wish so that the same gift is not chosen twice. A reservation is only a note; nothing is bought or paid through Congrat.io.
Gift-exchange events (Secret Santa):
- Create an event room with an optional budget, currency and exchange date, and invite participants with a private link.
- Participants add gift preferences or pick ideas from their wishlists.
- The organiser assigns pairs; the software gives each participant one recipient and never assigns anyone to themselves.
- Organiser tools: manage the participant list, regenerate or revoke the invitation link, reset assignments, and complete or cancel the event.
- In-app notifications keep participants informed about the event.
How Congrat.io is paid for
Congrat.io sells software features. Plans are described on the Pricing page:
- Free: wishlists and smaller gift exchanges, at no cost.
- Pro Monthly: a monthly subscription for organisers that raises limits across their account, such as participants per event and the number of open events.
- Event Pass: a one-time purchase that raises the participant limit for one specific event.
Only organisers who need additional capacity buy a plan. People who view a wishlist, reserve a wish or join an event as a participant never pay. Paid plans are not yet available for purchase; until checkout launches, every account uses the free service with the service's current limits.
The payment provider named at checkout and on your receipt is our reseller and Merchant of Record and processes payments for paid plans. See the Terms of Service, Refund & Cancellation Policy and Privacy Policy.
What Congrat.io does not do
- We do not accept or process donations, fundraising, crowdfunding or tips.
- We do not collect, pool, hold or transfer money between users, and there are no gift funds or cash contributions.
- We do not sell gifts, physical goods, gift cards, vouchers or stored value, and Congrat.io is not a marketplace. Gifts are bought by users themselves, outside the service.
- We do not run lotteries, raffles, contests, sweepstakes or games of chance, and nobody pays for a chance to win anything.
Secret Santa matching is not a lottery
Matching only decides who prepares a gift for whom. Each participant receives a gift-giving responsibility, not a prize: there is no entry fee, no stake and no winnings, and every participant takes part for free. Participants buy their gifts themselves, outside Congrat.io, usually within a budget the group agrees on.
An organiser's paid plan only raises software limits, such as the number of participants. It does not affect who is matched with whom.
