Getting Ready for the Christmas Rush

How to build a Christmas gift list in October and November without showing anyone a half-finished draft — and how the same list turns into your thank-you notes in January.

Where Should the Gifts Actually Ship?

Your delivery address belongs to a single gift list, not to your whole account. Show it on the baby shower list, hide it on the birthday list, and it never becomes a public listing of where your family lives.

Adding Family Members & Friends

Belovity has three separate ways to add someone to your family page — an emailed admin invite, a one-tap share link, and a follow request you approve. Picking the right door is the difference between everyone joining and nobody joining.

Thank-You Notes sans Investigation

Thank-you notes stall because nobody can remember who sent what. Here is how Belovity records the giver, their note, and the date at the moment of the gift — so your thank-you list writes itself.

Keeping Your Family Page Out of Google

Shareable and findable are two different things. Here is how Belovity keeps search visibility as its own setting, so opening your page to people with the link never quietly drops your family into Google.

What Actually Enforces Your Privacy

A privacy setting is only worth whatever is enforcing it. Here is the machinery behind Belovity: passwordless sign-in, image links that expire on their own, permission checks that run before a page loads, a browser add-on on a short leash, and deletion that actually deletes.

Add From Any Store in One Click

How the Belovity browser extension captures a product name, price, and link from any store you shop — and cleans up the messy retailer title before it lands on your gift list.

How to Change Gift List Visibility

Every Belovity family page starts private, and one setting decides who can open it. Here is exactly what each choice does, and how to approve, remove, and cut off access whenever you want.

One Family, Many Gift Lists

Your family page can hold more than one gift list, and each one is switched on or off separately — so the birthday list never leaks into the shower list. Plus the two ledgers that track what you gave and what you got.

How Purchase Tracking Works

How Belovity keeps two people from buying the same gift — items drop off the list as they are claimed, quantities count down one at a time, and a canceled claim puts the item straight back.

Set Up a Family Page in Three Screens

Belovity signup is three short screens, not a form marathon. Here is exactly what each one asks, what happens when you finish, and why your page is private from the moment it exists.

Draft It Now, Share It Later

Belovity gift list items start as drafts and stay invisible until you publish them, so you can build, price-check, and cut over weeks without anyone watching.

Telling Guests What You Want

A raw list of store links makes guests guess. Flag your most-wanted items, pin down the size and color, set a price, and leave a note — so people buy with confidence instead of texting you questions.
