Gift Registry & Wishlist plugin for Shopware 6 The wish list
people actually buy from.

With the plugin your customers create gift registries in your shop and share them by link. Family and friends give straight from them: they can reserve a wish, nothing gets bought twice, and the address stays private. Every purchase stays in your shop.

Why a gift registry in your own shop? Because a celebration brings the whole guest list with it.

A gift registry is not a comfort feature, it is a sales channel: one customer creates it, and 20, 50 or 100 guests buy from it - people who have never seen your shop before.

Full price instead of sale.

Nobody buys gifts in the clearance sale. Whoever gives from the list buys exactly the product wished for, at the regular price - no coupon hunting, no price comparison.

Fewer returns.

The list says what Anna really wants - in the right size, colour and quantity. That is the most effective brake on returns there is.

Guests turn into customers.

Every giver goes through your checkout, can follow the list and finds it in their account afterwards.

Extra revenue per gift.

Wrapping, a greeting card, a ribbon - bookable as a gift option right on the wish.

The alternative

Without a gift registry of your own, your customer creates her wish list on an external platform - and that platform sends the purchases to some shop or other, usually the biggest one.

Every gift registry is a shared wish list. The difference starts with the giving.

For your customers

The wizard in the customer account asks four steps: occasion, recipient, visibility, details. Only the name is required.

For the guests

Open the link, pick a wish, give. A guest order is enough; reserving happens live so that nobody buys twice.

For you as the merchant

Every purchase from the list stays in your shop. The dashboard shows lists, upcoming occasions and gift revenue.

How a customer creates and shares their list →

Your customers' wish list: created in minutes, shared by link

  • Four steps, one required field. Occasion, recipient, visibility, details - only the name is required. A date, a place and a few words turn the list into an invitation.
  • Wishes from your catalogue. Through the product search inside the list, or through the button "Add to gift list" on the product page and in the cart. Variants match size and colour exactly; per wish there is a quantity, a priority and a note.
  • Wishes of their own beside them. A trip, a donation, a product from somewhere else - as a wish with an external link, not buyable through the shop.
  • Visibility as you like it. Reachable by link or private, optionally with a password - stored hashed.
  • Surprise as you like it. The owner sees the state of every wish at any time - open, reserved, given. Whoever likes the suspense switches "keep the surprise" on and learns only numbers from then on - until they switch the guard off again themselves after the celebration.
  • A short link under your domain. your-shop.com/wishlist/anna-and-ben - the last part is the customer's own choice. Token links are unguessable, and lists never land in the Google index.

All 33 settings with purpose and default value →

Giving without a customer account - and no wish is bought twice

  • A guest order is enough. The list page shows live what is open, reserved and given - with progress, countdown and filter tabs.
  • A quantity ledger per wish. Six glasses wished for, four given, one reserved: exactly one stays free. The cart checks this on every recalculation - fulfilled lines are removed with a message, partly fulfilled ones are capped to what is left.
  • A cancellation frees it up. If an order is cancelled (default: status "cancelled"), the quantity goes back onto the list automatically. A wish only counts as given in the status "completed" - you set both.
  • Reserving without buying. Logged-in guests hold a wish for a configurable period (default: 3 days); 48 hours before it expires the shop sends a reminder.
  • Anonymous or by name. How anonymous givers appear to the owner is your decision: "a giver" or a first name with an initial. A personal message to the owner is written by the giver right in the checkout.
  • Their own shopping alongside. Flowers and a card may go into the same cart, if the shop and the owner allow it - the cart marks every line.

What a guest sees, from the invitation to the cart →

Delivery straight to the owner

Giving without knowing the address.

Without this, every guest gives to themselves and brings the parcel along. Here the owner decides per list: the gift goes straight to Anna & Ben at home - and the giver never sees the address, not in the order confirmation, not in the account, not in mails, not on the invoice. Shipping, ERP and the parcel service get it unchanged.

Before · what the giver sees

Payment providersExternal payment providers get only the postcode and town of the recipient out of the box, never the street - or just the placeholder if you prefer. Whether the delivery note shows the real address is your setting.

A wish list shows wishes. A gift registry fulfils them.

The gift registry does everything the built-in wishlist and a wishlist plugin do - plus the purchase by others.

Every occasion theme brings its own colour to the list page - three of them ship with the plugin, moving in shows a theme created by hand.

Wedding Baby shower Birthday Christmas & Secret Santa Moving in Christening First day at school Stag & hen + occasions of your own

You maintain occasion themes freely: name, colour, icon. Three are included - wedding, baby shower and birthday; further ones such as moving in or Christmas you create yourself with a name, colour and icon. The appearance of the list page is picked to suit your theme. Gift options can be tied to occasions: the baby shower gets different wrapping from the wedding.

Gift options: extra revenue on every gift

  • A surcharge line of its own per gift - cleanly separated in the cart, on the invoice and in the reporting.
  • Price absolute or as a percentage, charged once or per unit, with its own tax rate.
  • Tied to occasions, and rules - which option appears when is steered by the occasion and the Rule Builder.
  • Three examples are included, switched off: premium gift wrapping, greeting card, gift bow.

Reminders that lead up to the date - and a thank-you note afterwards

All mails run through your shop's Flow Builder - each one adjustable on its own, none hard-wired.

Every reminder can be switched off on its own, the time windows are configurable, a double-send guard prevents repetitions, and every recipient can unsubscribe from all plugin mails for good through a link - without signing in.

You keep control - without touching the lists

Overview.

A dashboard with active lists, upcoming occasions (30 days), open reservations, gift revenue and masked deliveries. Statistics in four tabs: revenue & success, owners & givers, products, occasions & themes - for 7, 30, 90 days or all time.

Moderation.

Every list has a review state: unreviewed, reviewed, reported, changed, blocked. A word filter with a starter list sends conspicuous lists to review instead of blocking them; visitors can report lists; blocked lists answer with a public 404. Every decision is logged. Reviewed lists only come back when something really changes.

Access.

Lists belong to the customers: you can look at every one of them, but not edit them. The customer and the order each carry a gift tab - the order tab holds the real recipient address for support.

The administration, menu entry by menu entry →

Flow Builder and Rule Builder: your processes, your rules.

Flow Builder

The gift registry hands eight events to the Flow Builder: wish reserved, wish given, thank-you note sent and the five reminders. Every mail is a flow - the text, the condition and the timing are yours, and any further process is one click away.

Rule Builder

The Rule Builder learns three extra conditions: gift registry in the cart, occasion theme and own gift. With them you steer shipping methods, payment methods, promotions and the visibility of gift options - without a line of code.

Set up with guidance

Installed from the Shopware store, the setup assistant walks through everything that wants deciding before the start, in ten steps - from purchase detection to the word filter. On the way it checks against the real shop whether the chosen order statuses even occur, and it brings sensible defaults with it.

Before uninstalling, the masking can be baked in permanently: the real recipient address is replaced by the placeholder, so that the protection stays without the plugin – how that works.

Common questions about the gift registry for Shopware.

What is a gift registry in an online shop?

A gift registry - also called a wish list, a wedding registry or a Christmas list - is a list of wishes that the customer shares with family and friends by link. Unlike Shopware's built-in wishlist, the guests buy straight from it: a wish is reserved or given and is then no longer available. In Shopware this can be added with a plugin.

What is the difference between Shopware's wishlist, a wishlist plugin and a gift registry?

The wishlist Shopware ships (its German storefront calls it Merkzettel) is a list for yourself, not even switched on in many shops. A wishlist plugin allows several lists and sharing them to be looked at. A gift registry is shared so that others buy - with reservation, guest purchase without an account, a quantity ledger against double purchases and masked delivery. This plugin is a gift registry.

Does the giver see the recipient's address?

Not if the list delivers to the owner. Then only the display name with a placeholder appears instead of the address - in the order confirmation, in the account, in mails and on the invoice. Shipping, ERP and the parcel service get the real address. If the list delivers to the giver instead, the gift goes to their own address and they hand it over themselves. External payment providers receive only the postcode and town of the recipient out of the box, never the street.

What happens if two guests want to give the same thing?

Every wish keeps a quantity ledger: wished for, reserved, given. The cart checks against the live state on every recalculation - if a wish has meanwhile been fulfilled, the line is removed with a message, partly fulfilled ones are capped. Double purchases are ruled out.

What happens with a cancellation?

A cancelled order returns the quantity to the list automatically - by default in the status "cancelled". A wish only counts as given once the order reaches the status "completed". You set both statuses in the setup assistant; an order in limbo holds the wish for 14 days (default), after which it becomes free again.

Does the owner learn what they are getting?

Yes. They see at any time which wishes are open, reserved or given. Whoever wants to keep the surprise switches this per list: the list, the notifications and the thank-you view then name only numbers and, as far as released, the names of the givers. Which wish it was, they see as soon as they switch the guard off again after the celebration.

Which occasions is the gift registry suitable for?

Wedding, baby shower, birthday, Christmas and Secret Santa, moving in, christening, first day at school, stag and hen parties - and any occasion of your own. You create occasion themes yourself with a name, colour and icon; three are included. Depending on the range the focus follows by itself: homeware for the wedding registry, baby retail for the baby registry, toys for a children's birthday.

Can customers also add wishes the shop does not sell?

Yes: as a wish of their own with an external link, a trip or a donation for instance. Such wishes sit in a section of their own on the list and cannot be bought through the shop.

How do customers share their list?

Through an unguessable link, optionally also through a readable short link under your domain such as your-shop.com/wishlist/anna-and-ben, whose last part the customer picks herself. Lists can be set to private or protected with a password; search engines never index them.

Can I keep unsuitable lists in check?

Yes. Every list has a review state, a word filter with a starter list sends conspicuous lists to review, visitors can report lists, and blocked lists are no longer reachable publicly. Every decision is logged. You cannot edit customer lists - they belong to the customers.

Which mails does the plugin send?

Notifications to the owner as soon as a wish has been ordered or given, five reminders (date approaching - 14 days before, reservation expiring - 48 hours before, reserved wish still open, thank-you reminder 3 days after the date, empty list after 3 days) and the thank-you note. All of them run through the Flow Builder and can be adjusted freely; an unsubscribe link takes recipients out of all plugin mails for good.

Does this work with my theme, my checkout and external payment providers?

The list pages and the cart use the storefront standards of your theme. For the plugin's own accent it brings three storefront themes of its own: Standard in a calm brand blue, Ambient with a discreet violet accent and Spotlight with a strong teal accent - and every list can carry its own occasion theme on top of that. The checkout stays the Shopware checkout. External payment providers receive only the postcode and town of the recipient out of the box, never the street. All texts exist in German and English and can be adjusted through snippets.

Do vouchers and promotions apply to gifts as well?

Yes. Gifts run through the normal cart, vouchers and promotions work as with any other purchase. If you want to exclude gifts from a promotion, add the condition "gift registry in the cart" to the promotion's rule in the Rule Builder.

Is any data transferred to an external service?

No. Lists, reservations and mails stay entirely in your shop. There is no cloud, no account with a third party and no passing on of data. Before uninstalling, the masking can be baked in permanently, so that the recipient addresses stay protected without the plugin as well.

There are plenty of wishes.
Give them your shop.
