What to add

What to put on a gift registry

A universal registry can hold anything — here's a simple frame guests appreciate at any occasion.

  • A spread of price points — small, medium, and one or two big-ticket items
  • Everyday essentials for the occasion (home, kitchen, baby, hobby)
  • A cash or experience fund for guests who'd rather give flexibly
  • One group gift with pitch-in turned on for the standout item
  • A few personal, meaningful picks that say something about you
Local know-how

Why a gift registry built for Canada matters

The big US registries were never built for Canadians. Zola only ships within the United States, Babylist's shop won't deliver here, and The Knot mostly just links you to Amazon.ca. That leaves Canadian hosts stitching together half-working tools and paying surprise USD conversions at checkout.

It got harder in 2025: Hudson's Bay — the department store that was the default Canadian registry for generations — closed for good, orphaning the customers who relied on it. GetJoyBox fills that gap with a registry that speaks CAD natively, links to Amazon.ca and Canadian retailers, and works the way Canadian families actually shop.

Cash and honeymoon funds settle by Interac e-Transfer, so 100% reaches you — no 2.5% cut like Zola or The Knot take on cash gifts. Add gifts from any store, ask for cash, and share one link.

FAQ

Questions

What occasions does GetJoyBox work for?

Any gift-giving occasion — baby showers, weddings, birthdays, housewarmings, anniversaries, or a general wishlist. One account can hold registries for all of them.

Can I have more than one registry?

Yes. Keep separate registries for different occasions or people under one account — the same family comes back for the shower, the first birthday, and the wedding.

Can I add gifts from any store?

Yes. Add items from Amazon or any retailer, anywhere in the world — you're never locked to a single store. Set your registry currency and prices display consistently for your guests.

Which currencies does GetJoyBox support?

Set your registry to CAD, USD, AUD, GBP, or EUR and prices display in that currency throughout. GetJoyBox is currency-agnostic — build your registry for wherever you and your guests are.

Is GetJoyBox really free?

Yes — creating and sharing your registry is free forever, with zero fees on cash gifts. We may earn a small affiliate commission when guests buy through some links, at no extra cost to you.

Do the big US registries work in Canada?

Not really. Zola ships only within the US, Babylist's store won't deliver to Canada, and The Knot largely just links out to Amazon.ca. GetJoyBox is built for Canada from the ground up — CAD pricing, Amazon.ca and Canadian retailer links, and cash funds by Interac e-Transfer.

How do cash gifts work in Canada — are there fees?

Guests send cash and honeymoon-fund contributions by Interac e-Transfer directly to you, so you keep 100%. There's no 2.5% platform fee like the US registries charge on cash gifts.
