Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Secret Santa
How does the Secret Santa generator work?
Create an event, invite participants via email, and our system automatically assigns each person a gift recipient. Everyone receives an email with their assignment and can view their recipient's wish list. The assignments are kept secret from everyone else.
Is the Secret Santa generator really free?
Yes! Our Secret Santa generator is completely free with no limitations. You can create unlimited events, invite unlimited participants, and use all features at no cost.
How are Secret Santa assignments made?
Our algorithm randomly assigns each participant to buy a gift for another person, ensuring no one gets themselves and everyone gives and receives one gift. You can also set exclusions (like spouses can't get each other).
Can participants see who they're buying for?
Yes! Each participant receives an email revealing who they're buying for. However, they cannot see who has them or any other assignments to maintain the surprise.
What happens if someone drops out?
As the organizer, you can remove participants and re-assign the gift exchange. The system will automatically adjust assignments and notify affected participants of any changes.
