Virtual Secret Santa Generator.

Yes. Create a free exchange and share one group invitation in your own chat. Members submit their own names, wishlists, and personal PINs. No account, email address, or phone number is needed.

No. Organizer access shows settings, invitation information, and member progress, never matches. An organizer who joins must verify their own name and personal PIN like anyone else. A person who knows or guesses another member's name and PIN could view that member's result.

After people join, add a Couple or housemates exclusion on the organizer page. It blocks both directions. Last year's pair blocks only the selected giver-to-recipient direction; custom exclusions are one-way unless you explicitly choose both directions.

Yes. Every group of 3 to 50 can draw, whether odd or even. Each member gives one gift and receives one gift, and nobody draws themselves.

Each activity supports up to 50 members, with at least 3 needed to draw. All tool features, redraws, and PNG downloads are free. There are no paid upgrades. Larger groups can create separate activities, which do not draw across groups.

Yes. Open your details, verify your joined name and personal PIN, and confirm leaving. Your profile, wishes, PIN hash, and related exclusions are deleted. Rejoining creates a new membership and requires a complete new submission.

Contact the organizer in your group chat. They must confirm removing that member and redrawing everyone together. If fewer than 3 people remain or the rules have no solution, nothing changes. There are no partial replacements.

Yes. The organizer must explicitly confirm a full redraw. Matches may change, but some or all may stay the same. Success resets everyone's viewing progress. Failure leaves the old members, rules, matches, and progress unchanged. Previously saved images must be checked again.

The shared six-digit group PIN lets people enter an activity. Your own 4–6 digit personal PIN, together with your joined name, verifies your identity. A group PIN or organizer link alone cannot reveal your match.

There is no PIN recovery or reset by email, phone, or organizer. Before the draw, ask the organizer to remove your membership so you can join again and refill your details. After the draw, a forgotten PIN cannot recover the result.

The organizer does, in the same group chat used for invitations. Before drawing, the dashboard lists people who completed joining. After drawing, it lists who has not viewed this result. The site sends no email, text, or in-app reminders.

No. The gift exchange date is not a submission deadline. The organizer draws when the group is ready. Joining and edits pause during the first draw, reopen if it fails, and close when it succeeds. A redraw does not reopen them.

There is no recovery or replacement. Managing the group again requires creating a new activity and everyone joining again. An undrawn activity cannot be drawn without its organizer link. Already-drawn results remain available to members until expiry.

The full invitation ends in #pin= followed by six digits. The page removes this part after reading it. Re-shared address-bar links, bookmarks, previews, or some apps may lose it. Enter the separate group PIN from your organizer. Always share the original link from the organizer page, not the opened address bar.

Yes. A draw commits all matches together or none. The enabled view button means a complete draw exists. During a redraw, you can still verify and view the previous committed result until the new draw succeeds.

The exchange date uses America/New_York. Retention lasts 30 calendar days from midnight after that date. Access stops at expiry, and the next successful daily cleanup removes associated data. The organizer can delete earlier. Empty, undrawn, and drawn activities follow the same rule.

Yes. Verify your name and personal PIN again to download your current personal result as a PNG. It includes the recipient, budget, date, wishlist, and preferences, but no PINs or access links. You cannot export the whole group's matches.

Yes. Copy the full group link and the separate group PIN into your usual text message or group chat. You send it yourself; this site does not collect phone numbers or send messages.
