01How it works
How do you plan a birthday gift?
Step 1: Add the birthday
Create a list for each person and see a countdown to their day, so it never sneaks up on you.
Step 2: Save ideas all year
Caught a hint in March for a birthday in September? Save it the moment it strikes - paste a link, add a note, keep the photo.
Step 3: Buy early, give proud
Set a budget, track the gift from idea to bought to wrapped, and split the cost if you are going in with someone.

Paste a link, get the gift
Drop in a product link and Wishpile grabs the name, price, and photo for you.
Chip in together
Going in on a bigger present? Track who is splitting the cost and coordinate it.
Keep it a surprise
On a shared family list, claim a birthday gift and the recipient never sees it.
03Why Wishpile
Why isn't a calendar reminder enough?
A reminder tells you a birthday is coming - it doesn't hold the idea you had months ago, the budget, or whether you already bought something. Wishpile keeps the whole plan in one place, so every birthday you arrive early, on budget, and with a gift they actually wanted.
I like the wishpile because any time I want something I add it. In the past I forget things I want.
What is a birthday gift planner?
A birthday gift planner is one place to keep every person's birthday, save gift ideas ahead of time, set a budget, and track each gift to wrapped, with a countdown so no date sneaks up on you. Wishpile is a free birthday gift planner built to remember all of it for you.
Can I save gift ideas months before a birthday?
Yes. Add ideas to a list any time - paste a link, jot a note, attach a photo - and they wait right there until the birthday comes around.
Will Wishpile remind me before a birthday?
Yes. Every list shows a live countdown, and you can turn on optional email nudges so an upcoming birthday never catches you off guard.
How do I keep everyone's birthdays and gifts in one place?
Create a list for each person with their date. Each one shows a live countdown and holds the ideas, budget, and gift progress for that birthday, so every celebration lives in a single view.
Can I set a budget for each birthday?
Yes. Set a budget per person and Wishpile shows spent and remaining as you add and buy gifts.
Can I plan birthday gifts for my whole family?
Yes. Keep a list for everyone you buy for, and on a shared family list you can claim a gift so the birthday person never sees it while others know it is handled.
Is there a free birthday gift planner?
Yes. Wishpile is free - lists, countdowns, budgets, reminders, and sharing are all included at no cost, always.
