Questions at the gate
The things people ask at the village gate.
Is it free?
Yes. No ads, no sponsored gift ideas, nothing to buy. Wishlists link to wherever you like to shop.
Does everyone need an account?
Just an email address. There's no password: Snowglobe Village emails a six-digit code and a magic link, and either one signs you in.
We drew names in person. Can we still use it?
Yes. Turn on "Names were drawn in person" when you set up the village and each person quietly tells the village who they drew. Wishlists, hints and letters through Pip all work the same.
Will my giftee know it's me?
Pip helps keep your secret. Pip is our AI mail elf. Organizers can't see who drew whom either. We can't promise nobody will guess, though: the details you share can still be clues, so leave out anything that points straight to you.
Who is it for?
Grown-ups planning a Secret Santa with family, friends or coworkers. Snowglobe Village is for people 18 and over.
