What do the parents say about it?
Giulia's Mum
At first I didn't even know what to add to my registry, but with the help of the community I found a lot of useful ideas!
Gabriele's Mum
A very simple service for the 2.0 mums. Plus the website will be a nice souvenir for the years to come
Matteo's Dad
With Given2 I managed to receive gifts that I really wanted and needed, great!
Ilaria's Mum
I chose Given2 because a friend of mine used it a couple of months ago. Everything was fine with it, even the older guests used it!
Baby Registry or Christening Gift Registry? Differences and etiquette
In case you decide to create a Christening Gift Registry, first of all check if you already have a Baby Registry and then two possible solutions are available:
- Have you created a Baby Registry yet? If yes, you can embed in the Christening Gift Registry all the Baby Registry’s gifts that you haven't bought yet or that you have found to be very useful for your baby and for you;
- Have you created a Baby Registry yet? If not, surely the Christening Gift Registry will be longer and more similar to a Baby Registry. The only difference is that the Baby Registry is generally drawn up when the couple is still “waiting” for the baby, whereas the Christening Gift Registry is created some moths after the baby’s birth.
Nevertheless, this determines a great difference as for the content of the Baby Registry itself, since by that time the parents will surely have already bought many things.

How do I receive my gifts?
With Given2, you will be able to add to your list everything you wish for (both real and invented gifts) and choose your “Gift Receiving Service” payment options among:
Bank transfer (optional): guests will receive an e-mail with your bank details in order to pay for the gift via bank transfer. If their bank provides fee-free transfers, no extra cost will be added.
>> Example: Gift costs € 100 > You will receive € 100 > Guest will pay € 100
Credit Card (optional): guests will pay right away on the website via their own credit card. Money will automatically be transferred to your bank account within 7 days with no extra fees. In this case, the credit card circuit (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) adds a transaction fee (EU 1.8% + 0,35¤ / Amex and Non-EU 3.4% + 0,35¤). Of course, said fee will be shown before payment checkout.
>> Example: Gift costs € 100 > You will receive € 100 > Guest will pay € 102.19 > Visa will receive € 2.19
On our website, online payments via credit card are secured by A+ HTTPS protocol.
NOTE: it is possible to take charge of guests' transaction fees.
PayPal (optional): guests will pay online via their own PayPal account; you will receive the money directly on your PayPal account. PayPal adds a transaction fee 3.8% (3,4% + 0,35¤). Of course, said fee will be shown before payment checkout.
>> Example: Gift costs € 100 > You will receive € 100 > Guest will pay € 103.88 > PayPal will receive € 3.88
Online payments are secured by PayPal.
NOTE: it is possible to take charge of guests' transaction fees.
Cash gift (optional): guests will prepare an envelope containing cash or a check, and then they will hand-deliver it on the day of your event (easier for the elderly). Of course, no extra fees are required, except the money needed for the guest to buy the envelope!
>> Example: Gift costs € 100 > You will receive € 100 > Guest will pay € 100
Purchase of the Gift (optional): guests will receive an e-mail containing the gift delivery instructions and the link to the e-commerce of the chosen gift (usually Amazon). In this case, you will not receive money, but a concrete gift.
Therefore, all these options are “money gifts” except for the Purchase of the Gift.
If you enable the Purchase of the Gift, this option will be displayed among the others available for your guests only if:
- The gift you chose is linked to an e-commerce;
- The gift is “whole” (not divided in parts), or, if divided in parts, the guest should select 100% of said parts.
