No duplicate gifts. One baby registry.

A baby registry is the list of gifts expecting parents want to receive, shared with the people who want to give one. On BabyWish it takes minutes: add items by pasting a product link from any online store, get a unique link, and send it to family and friends. Whoever opens the link reserves what they want to give without signing up, the item is immediately marked unavailable to everyone else — so nobody buys the same thing twice — and you get an email every time something is reserved.

Yes, BabyWish is free: creating a baby registry, adding items, sharing it and receiving reservations costs nothing, and Premium, the optional personalization, is free to turn on for now. We also take no commission on gifts, because payments never touch BabyWish: guests buy wherever they like and give the gift to you directly. Nothing to cancel, no card on file.

No, guests never need an account to reserve a gift, and this is the part relatives notice first. Anyone with the link opens the registry, picks a gift and reserves it by leaving a name and email, and a message if they want. No account, no password, no app to install. The email is only used to send a reservation reminder and stays hidden from you, so the surprise is safe. The item is immediately marked as taken for everyone else, and you get an email.

Yes, on BabyWish you can add products from any online store: paste the product page address and the name, image and price fill in automatically, from Amazon links and many other sites too. If a site can't be read, or the gift doesn't exist online, you can add the item by hand with a name, price and a note. Guests buy wherever they like — BabyWish doesn't push any store.

Group gifting on BabyWish collects pledges, not payments. You add the item and its price; each guest says how much they want to contribute and sees in real time what is still missing. The money is settled directly between the guests and you — no payment processor, no service fee, no percentage skimmed off the car seat.

Yes, your BabyWish registry is private: every registry lives at a secret, randomly generated address, so only the people you send that link to can see it. Registries are never indexed by search engines and are not listed on any public page of the site. Data is hosted on servers in the European Union.

One registry that holds gifts from every store instead of a single retailer's catalog. You paste links from wherever you shop, guests see one page, and each of them buys from the store the gift came from. It is the difference between building a registry around what you want and building it around where the registry happens to live.

Because a store registry holds only that store's catalog, and your list rarely does. Keep the store registry for its perks if you qualify — those are the retailer's terms, not ours — and use BabyWish for everything: the Etsy mobile, the boutique crib, the Amazon stroller, on one link. The two do not sync, so check gifts off in both.

Most parents build the registry before the baby shower and share it with the invitation, which in the US usually means somewhere in the late second trimester or early third. Earlier is fine: a registry you start at 20 weeks gives you months to add and remove things, and BabyWish lets you keep editing after you have shared the link — guests always see the current version, not the one you sent them.

You get one private link. Text it, put it in the family group chat, email it, add it to the baby shower invitation, or share it on WhatsApp with relatives overseas. The link previews with your first name and a picture card, so people know what they are opening. You can also post it in a private group — just remember that anyone holding the link can see the registry.

Yes. BabyWish does not sell or ship products. Guests buy from the linked store, whose shipping options, payment methods and restrictions apply. The interface is available in English, Italian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish and Romanian.

Your registry stays yours after the baby is born. Reserved items keep showing who claimed them, which is what you want when you sit down to write thank-you notes. For a christening or the first birthday, switch the registry’s occasion and keep the same link; if you want those guests to see only what the new occasion needs, archive the earlier gifts first — they stay in your history. Nothing expires and nothing is deleted on a timer.

Yes. Besides the baby registry (which also covers the baby shower), you can switch your list to a baptism or christening registry, or to a kids' birthday registry. You don't open a second one: when the next celebration comes, you change the occasion of the same list and the link you share stays the same. To start fresh, archive the earlier gifts first: they stay in your history, and guests only see the new wishes. Categories follow the occasion — keepsakes and books for a baptism, toys and experiences for a birthday — and for a naming day or any celebration with its own name, you can give the occasion the name you use.

Yes, with BabyWish Pro, built for independent baby shops. You create one registry per family, for a new baby, a baptism or a birthday, with your shop's logo and only the products you add, with no links out to Amazon. Reservation notifications go to the parents, who don't need to sign up. To get it, register and tick "I'm a shop": the account is active straight away.
