Getting Started is Easy - Two Simple Steps

Getting your family started on Family Wish Lists is very easy. First, a designated family member registers your family group. Second, family members create their individual password that allows them to sign in to your family group and input their wish lists. The two-step process to get you started is outlined below.

Step 1 - Create Your Family Group ($20 for entire family)

Your family designates one family member to be the "list manager". The only thing the "list manager" has to do is create the family group. Later, the "list manager" can add and remove family members from the list and make changes to lists, if it is necessary.

To get started, the "list manager" clicks the "Create Group" button on our home page (or click here). A registration form will be displayed. After you complete and submit the registration form, you will be prompted to select the "Secure Online Payment" button to purchase a one-year subscription to "Family Wish Lists" ($20). Note that this single payment pays for all members of your family for one year. This includes grandparents, aunts and uncles, etc.

At the completion of the registration of your family group, you will have a "group password". Your "list manager" will provide the "group password" to all members of the family (typically the "list manager" sends the password to family members by email) .

Step 2 - Family Members Join The Family Group (free)

Now that your family group is registered and the "list manager" has provided the "group password" to all family members, individual family members can join the group and begin entering their wish lists.

To join, a family member enters the "group password" in the box on the "Join Family Group" panel on the home page (or click here). A registration form will be displayed. On the registration form the family member will enter his/her username and password and will be prompted to enter an email address. This must be a valid email address. When the registration form has been completed and submitted, confirmation email is automatically sent to the family member's email address. The family member must then click on the "Accept" button, in the body of the email, in order to activate their membership in the family group.



Since there is no cost to join a family group, the registration of the family member is now complete and the family member can sign in using the "Member Sign In" button on the home page.
