About this app

Organize a gift exchange with family, friends, or coworkers using Pikkado. Draw names remotely, share wish lists, and find your group’s information on Android or the web.

DRAW NAMES WITHOUT GETTING EVERYONE TOGETHER

There’s no need to gather everyone around a hat full of names. Pikkado handles the draw and lets you set rules for your exchange, such as preventing partners from drawing each other or someone from drawing the same person as last year.

INVITE YOUR GROUP

Add participants’ names and email addresses, set up your exchange, and send the invitations. Each person receives an email inviting them to join the group and prepare their wish list.

Not everyone needs an Android phone: participants can also use Pikkado in their browser at pikkado.com.

WISH LISTS THAT HELP YOU FIND THE RIGHT GIFT

Participants can add gift ideas with descriptions and links to explain what they would like. Lists are available according to the group’s settings and can be checked while shopping.

You can also set the exchange date and a suggested gift budget.

KEEP THE RESULT A SURPRISE

Run the draw when your group is ready. Participants are not sent their assigned person’s name by email: each person signs in to Pikkado to discover who they will be giving a gift to.

KEEP YOUR GROUPS YEAR AFTER YEAR

Keep your groups and participants’ accounts for future exchanges. The draw history lets you avoid assigning someone the same person two years in a row.

Taking part in several exchanges? Switch easily between groups with your Pikkado account.

Available in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese.
