Frequently asked questions

How does the Secret Santa generator work?

You create an event and share an invite link. Friends join, pick wishes from their own wishlist, and you run the draw. Everyone secretly receives one person to gift.

Can participants add a secret santa wishlist?

Yes — that's the core of KeepMyWish. Each participant selects real wishes (with prices and store links) to offer in the event, or creates new ones on the spot.

Can I stop couples from drawing each other?

Yes. The organizer can add exclusion pairs before the draw, and the generator guarantees those two people never draw each other in either direction.

Is the draw really anonymous?

Yes. Each participant sees only their own assignment, and gift reservations are anonymous too — the wish owner never learns who reserved it.

How many people do I need?

At least 3 participants. There's no upper limit for a typical group.

Is the Secret Santa generator free?

Yes, completely free — events, wishlists, the draw and email notifications.
