How does it work?
Fill in the names
To organise your Secret Santa, enter the names of the people you would like to include. Once you confirm a group, you can still add or delete participants.

Add exclusions and group details
If there are enough group members, you can make exclusions: who shouldn’t draw whom. You can also add details like a group name and the date of the celebration.

Send the invitations
Once the group is created, invitations need to be sent. You can do this via email, text message, WhatsApp or other social media.

Make your wish list
Be sure to let your Secret Santa know what you want! Create a wish list of gifts you would like. Did you know you can also set up a group that lets you share wish lists?

Draw the names
It's time to draw names! Now it’s also possible to watch the draw live, so that everyone sees whose name they’ve drawn at the same time.
