Completely. No premium tier, no fees for guests, no catch. Some shop links earn us a small commission from the shop's side.

Do guests need an account?

No. Guests open your link, tap to call dibs, and the gift is reserved. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.

Can I add gifts from different shops?

That's the whole point. Amazon, Etsy, a bookshop, a vintage store: if it has a product page, paste the link and it joins the list.

Can I change the list after sharing it?

Any time. Reserved gifts stay reserved, new ideas appear instantly, and your guests always see the live version.

Is Call Dibs a UK site?

Yes, made in the UK with prices in pounds. Build your wish list from UK shops like Argos, John Lewis or Waterstones, or from anywhere else on the internet: the list doesn't mind.

hints, retired

A birthday wish list your friends will actually use.

Stop dropping hints. Put the things you'd genuinely love on one list, from any shop on the internet, and share a single link. Friends reserve in one tap and nobody turns up with the same gift.

Built to keep the secret

Call Dibs strips reservation details from your view of your own list. Friends coordinate freely; you stay happily in the dark until you unwrap.

Gifts you actually want
No more polite smiles at guesswork. Your list, your taste, pulled from any shop, big or small.
One tap for your friends
Guests open the link and reserve without an account. The gift instantly shows as taken for everyone else.
Still a surprise on the day
You see your list, never who claimed what. The reveal happens at the party, not in an app.
