How it works

Three steps to holiday joy

From setup to reveal in minutes. No learning curve, no frustration.

01

Create Your Exchange

Set up your event in under two minutes. Name it, pick the holiday, add your family.

02

Invite Families

Share one 8-letter code. Each family joins, adds its kids, and drops in wish-list links and gift ideas.

03

Pick or Auto-Assign

Families pick kids themselves, or the organizer taps once and everyone is assigned fairly.

Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Thoughtful tools that make organizing effortless and the exchange delightful.

Fair Smart Assignments

Our algorithm distributes gifts evenly across families—no one picks their own kids, and every child gets a buyer.

Wish Lists & Gift Ideas

Capture wish-list links, sizes and gift notes for every child, plus an AI gift advisor for when you are stuck.

Budget Guidance

Set a per-child budget so every gift is about the same value, and see what that means per family.

Gentle Reminders

Set the party date and everyone in the exchange gets one reminder email a week before. No awkward follow-up texts.

Santa Cards from Happy Santa

Link a child's Santa Card from our Happy Santa app and whoever is buying sees Santa's mood and the wishlist right on the kid's card.

Any Holiday, Any Family

Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Thanksgiving, birthdays or a white elephant. Run more than one exchange if your family does.
