The Alternative to Giftster

Comparing features with Giftster

Giftster launched in 2009 and was one of the first gift-list platforms around.

As the name suggests, the emphasis is on "gifts".

Users need to register for an account before you can see what the service is like.

Giftster provides a few header images to personalise each list, but don't allow uploading any of your own content.

Items on a Giftster gift-list consist of a name, an optional price and quantity, with a description.

Giftster revolves around the idea of groups, to share your gift list with group members, and buying gifts for members of the group.
