Family Profiles

Family Profiles let you manage wishlists for people who don’t have their own Giverr account:

  • Children too young for an account
  • Elderly relatives unfamiliar with technology
  • Anyone else you want to create lists for

As a manager, you can add gifts, share the profile’s wishlists, and coordinate on their behalf.

  1. Go to your account settings
  2. Click Family ProfilesCreate Profile
  3. Fill in the details:
    • Name — Who is this for?
    • Birthday (optional) — For birthday reminders
    • Relationship — How are they related to you?
  4. Click Create Profile
  1. Open the family profile
  2. Click Create Wishlist
  3. Fill in the occasion details (same as your own wishlists)
  4. Add gifts on their behalf

  4. Set the priority level
  5. Save the gift
  1. Open their wishlist
  2. Click Share

  4. Others can claim gifts just like any other wishlist
  1. Go to Family Profiles
  2. Click on the profile

When someone claims a gift from a family member’s wishlist:

  • You (the manager) do not see the claim — surprise is preserved
  • Other givers can see and coordinate
  • The gift appears in the claimer’s shopping list

The same privacy model applies as with regular wishlists.
