Run a Secret Santa in three steps

No spreadsheets, no drawing names from a hat, no accidental spoilers. Here's the whole thing.

1

Create your group

Name your exchange, set a gift budget, and pick your draw date. It takes about 90 seconds.

2

Invite everyone

Share one link or send email invites. Add exclusions so couples don't draw each other.

3

Draw & gift

Hit draw and everyone privately sees who they've got, plus their wish list. That's it.

Everything included

More than a name generator

All the little things that make a gift exchange actually run smoothly, built right in.

Instant, fair draw

Our matching guarantees no one draws themselves and every exclusion rule is respected.

Wish lists

Everyone adds gift ideas and links, so their Santa always knows exactly what to buy.

Set a budget

Pick a spending limit up front so every gift feels fair and no one over- or under-spends.

Exclusion rules

Stop partners, roommates, or last year's pairs from matching, with one tap each.

Anonymous chat

Santas can ask "what's your size?" without blowing their cover. Fully anonymous Q&A.

Reminders

Automatic nudges before the draw and the gift date, so nobody forgets to shop.

For every group

Family, friends, or the whole office

Whether you're across the dinner table or across the country, everyone plays from their phone.

🏡

Family

Keep the whole extended family in one exchange, even the cousins who never reply.

🎉

Friends

Run the annual friends-group swap without one person stuck doing all the admin.

💼

Coworkers

Office Secret Santa with budgets and exclusions that keep HR happy.

🌍

Remote teams

Distributed team? Everyone draws online and ships gifts straight to each other.

Groups that stopped dreading the admin

"We have 22 people spread across three states. This is the first year nobody emailed me asking who they got. The wish lists alone were worth it."

"Set up our office exchange of 40 during a coffee break. The exclusion rules meant teammates didn't get their own manager. Slick."

"The anonymous chat is genius. My Santa asked my ring size without me ever knowing who it was. Gift was perfect on the 25th."

Secret Santa questions, answered

Is Let's Play Secret Santa really free?+
Yes. Creating a group, drawing names, wish lists, reminders, and the anonymous chat are all free, with no member limit and no credit card. We'll never lock your exchange behind a paywall mid-season.
Do my friends and family need to download an app?+
No app required. You share one link, and everyone joins and sees their match right in the browser on any phone or computer.
Can I stop certain people from drawing each other?+
Absolutely. Add exclusion rules so couples, roommates, or last year's pairs never match. Our draw always finds a valid combination that respects every rule.
Can I run a Secret Santa if everyone lives far apart?+
Yes, that's exactly what it's built for. Remote groups draw names online and either ship gifts directly or share wish lists with links to send digitally.
Does the organizer get to join the gift exchange too?+
Of course. As the organizer you're drawn in with everyone else and see your own secret match. You can also reset or re-draw the group if plans change.
