Frequently Asked Questions
Want to know more about creating a Universal Gift Registry? Start here.
What is a Universal Baby Registry?
A Universal Baby Registry is a gift list where you can add items from any store in the world—online or brick-and-mortar (really!). Gifts can be products, experiences, even a
Cash Gift Fund for big-ticket items. We believe gifting should be unlimited!
How do I create a Universal Baby Registry?
It’s easy! Just click on CREATE A REGISTRY above and follow the steps from there. Once you’ve created your baby registry, you can manage it from either the MyRegistry website or our
app.
Do I have to pay for a baby registry?
You do not! There’s no charge to have a registry on MyRegistry.com. There is, however, a small transaction fee associated with a
Cash Gift Fund.
When should I start my baby registry?
Our advice? Start early. Friends and family will start thinking about the perfect gift as soon as they hear you’re expecting, so add lots of options, at lots of price points, as soon as you can.
What are must-have baby items to put on a baby registry?
We've put together a list of some of our users'
must-have baby products—it's the perfect combination of big and small necessities that will make a difference once your little one arrives.
I already have store registries—can I still have a universal registry?
Not to worry. You can sync your baby registries with major retailers to your MyRegistry account and still keep the completion discounts, free gifts, and other benefits. Even better, as you keep adding to your store registries we’ll re-sync them automatically.
How do I share my baby registry?
We have several easy ways to share your gift list with family and friends, including a customized URL, social media, eCards, printable announcements, and embedding on your personal website.
Can I keep my baby registry private?
You’re in control, so after you create a registry, just go into your Settings and choose whether it will be viewable by family and friends and/or findable on search engines.
