# Wishpicks > Wishpicks is a cross-store wishlist and price monitoring platform. Users save products from any online shop, share lists for birthdays, weddings and other occasions, and let friends reserve gifts so nobody buys the same thing twice. Price tracking is free for partner stores and extends to any store with the optional Wishpicks Plus subscription. Prices are shown in local currency in 42 countries. Wishpicks helps users manage purchase intent over time. Instead of buying impulsively or losing product links, users can save products, watch prices, share lists for events, and coordinate gifts without duplicates. Wishlists, sharing and reservations are free; Wishpicks Plus is an optional paid subscription for price tracking on any store. ## URL Structure Every page lives under a market segment: `https://wishpicks.com/{market}/{path}`. URLs in this document use the `us` market (English, USD), which is the canonical version of English content. Swapping the segment gives the same page in another market's language and currency — `/de/gift-ideas`, `/fr/occasions/birthday`, `/pl/blog`. There is no URL without a market segment; an unprefixed path redirects to a market chosen from the visitor's location and browser language. The `uk` segment is the Ukrainian-language market, not the United Kingdom. The UK market is `gb`. See Markets for every segment. ## How It Works ### Step 1: Start Your Wishlist Click "Create Wishlist," give it a name and short description, and choose who can see it — just you, friends by link, or everyone. ### Step 2: Add What You Love Drop a link from any online store — Wishpicks automatically pulls in the photo, name, and price. You can also add your own items with custom photos or notes. ### Step 3: Share the Joy Send the link to friends and family so they can reserve gifts, or invite people to build the list with you. ## Core Features ### Universal Wishlist Create structured wishlists with products from any online store. Paste a product link and Wishpicks automatically extracts the product name, image, current price, and store link. You can create unlimited wishlists, for any occasion. ### Price Tracking Details: https://wishpicks.com/us/features/price-alerts Free: prices of wishes from partner stores are tracked automatically, with recent price history. Price-drop emails are opt-in — turn them on in settings to hear when something gets noticeably cheaper. Wishpicks Plus (https://wishpicks.com/us/plus): track up to 50 wishes of your choice from any store, checked more often, with your own drop threshold or target price and full price history. The Plus page shows the monthly price for each market. ### Gift Reservations Details: https://wishpicks.com/us/features/reservations Friends mark which gift they're getting to avoid duplicates and keep the surprise. By default the wishlist owner doesn't see what is reserved or by whom; the owner can choose to reveal it. Gift-givers need no account to reserve, unless the owner asks friends to sign in first. ### Shared Wishlists Details: https://wishpicks.com/us/features/collaboration Invite a partner, family members or friends to build one list together. Roles: owner; full access (add, edit and delete wishes and manage settings); contributor (add wishes and edit or delete their own); viewer (view and reserve). People who edit the list don't see reservations and can't reserve from it, so the surprise holds for them too. ### Anonymous Wishlists Create and share wishlists without registering. Anonymous users have almost the same capabilities as registered ones, but cannot access their wishlists from another device. Access is provided through cookie files. Users can later register to sync across devices and recover their data. ### Collections Curated thematic product lists for inspiration and discovery. Collections are not reservable and are used for browsing gift recommendations across categories. ### Gift Ideas & Guides Occasion-based gift guides at https://wishpicks.com/us/gift-ideas — editorial pages that pair buying advice with a real, shoppable collection. Each guide is organized into themed product sections (e.g. "for new parents", "under $50"), is kept up to date, and lets a reader add any item straight to their own wishlist. Available per market in the local language and currency. ### Mobile Friendly Details: https://wishpicks.com/us/features/mobile Wishpicks works on mobile devices. Add it to your home screen and use it like an app — no download from the App Store or Google Play needed. Notifications are sent by email; there are no push notifications. ### Privacy Controls Users decide who can see each wishlist: private (only you), anyone with the link, or public. New lists are link-only. Public lists appear on the owner's public profile; link-only and private lists do not. Settings can be changed at any time. ## Occasions ### Birthday Wishlist Your birthday is the time to get exactly what you've been wishing for.

Q: Do people prefer getting what they asked for or surprise gifts? A: A wishlist with reservations gives both: the giver still chooses which item to buy and keeps it secret, and the recipient gets something they actually wanted. Q: How much should you spend on a birthday gift? A: Gift spending varies by relationship: close friends typically spend $25-75, family members $50-150, and coworkers $15-30. Occasion formality and local norms also play a role — milestone birthdays like turning 30 usually receive more generous gifts. Q: How much should you spend on a wedding gift? A: Wedding gift spending depends on your relationship to the couple and local customs. Close friends and family typically give $100-250, acquaintances $50-100. Many guests aim to cover their plate cost as a baseline. Q: What are the traditional anniversary gifts by year? A: Year 1 is paper, year 5 is wood, year 10 is tin or aluminum, year 15 is crystal, year 20 is china, year 25 is silver, and year 50 is gold. Modern alternatives offer more flexibility while honoring the tradition. Q: When should I create a baby registry? A: Create your baby registry around weeks 12-20 of pregnancy. This gives you time to research products while friends and family still have months to purchase items before the baby arrives. ## What Wishpicks Is Not - Not an online store or marketplace - Not limited to one retailer - Not a coupon aggregator or flash-sale site - Not only for weddings — supports any occasion Wishpicks works with products from any e-commerce website. ## Markets Prices are shown in local currency for 42 countries.
