How it works

Set up your whole family's Secret Santa in about a minute.

1

Add the names

Type them in, paste a list, or drop one join link in the family WhatsApp and let everyone add themselves.

2

Set the rules

Budget, date, and who won't draw who. Next year, we'll even avoid last year's pairs.

3

Draw in secret

Everyone opens their own envelope. Or seal them all and open together at Christmas Eve dinner.

4

Wish lists do the rest

See their list, tick off what you bought, and ask anonymous questions like "what size are you?"

Everything the organiser needs

๐Ÿ“ฒ Join link

One link in the group chat. Everyone adds themselves and starts their wish list.

๐Ÿ”’ Truly secret

You see who's opened their page and who's made a list, never who got who, until the gift day.

๐Ÿ”” One-tap reminders

Nudge the ones who haven't looked yet, by email or a ready-made WhatsApp message.

๐Ÿคซ Anonymous questions

"What size?" "Any allergies?" Ask your person without giving yourself away.

โœ‰๏ธ Open together

Seal every envelope until a set time, then open them together on a call or at dinner.

๐Ÿ” Next year, sorted

Copy the group in one tap. Same people and rules, and nobody draws the same person again.

๐Ÿ“ท Photos on wish lists

Seen it in a shop window? Snap it and add it. No link needed.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Postal addresses

For long-distance groups: shown only to the person buying for you.

๐Ÿ”— Lost your link?

Type your email and we'll send every page linked to it. No passwords to forget.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes, for any group of up to 60. We're an Amazon Associate: if someone buys a gift through one of our Amazon links, Amazon pays us a small commission. You pay exactly the same price.

Can the organiser see who got who?

Not before the gift day. The organiser sees who has opened their page and how many wishes they've added. The full list unlocks on the gift day. If the organiser sends links by WhatsApp themselves, they're handling everyone's links, so we ask them not to open them!

What's the difference between Kris Kindle, Kris Kringle and Secret Santa?

They're the same thing. In Ireland it's usually Kris Kindle (or Kris Kringle); in the US, UK and Canada it's Secret Santa. Everyone draws one name and buys that person a gift in secret.

Do people need to sign up or download an app?

No. Each person gets a private link: that's their page. You can add Secret Kringle to your phone's home screen and it works like an app.

Can people add themselves?

Yes. Tick "Let people add themselves" and share one join link in your group chat. Sign-ups close when you draw.

Can I add someone after the draw?

Reset the draw, add them, and draw again. Wish lists are kept.

Can I make a wish list without a draw?

Yes. Make a wish list for birthdays, Christmas or anything, and share the link. Friends can reserve gifts so nobody doubles up, and you won't see who's getting what.

I lost my link

Type your email here and we'll send you every page linked to it. If you didn't give an email, ask your organiser to resend your link.

What about my data?

We only store what's needed to run your draw. We never sell data or send marketing, and groups are deleted after the season. Privacy policy.

Ready to draw names?

Takes a minute. Nobody needs to sign up.
