How it works
Poolsy is a private group gifting platform for showers, weddings, birthdays, and group chats — with a friendly prediction layered on top so everyone enjoys taking part.
Three steps, start to finish
- 1
Create your pool
Pick a celebration, add a prediction, and invite your people.
- 2
Guests contribute
Everyone chips in securely to the shared gift fund.
- 3
Everyone celebrates
The recipient gets the gift, and guests enjoy the fun predictions.
- 01
Choose the recipient
The couple, the new parents, the birthday person, you as organizer, or a charity. This is who the gift fund goes to.
- 02
Write the question
Any question with a clear answer. Baby gender, speech length, who cries first, final score. It's purely for fun.
- 03
Invite your guests privately
Share the private link. Each guest contributes to the gift fund and picks an outcome for entertainment.
- 04
Settle and send
When the result is in, the host confirms it and the gift fund is distributed to the designated recipient.
A note on money
Poolsy uses Stripe to collect contributions and distribute the gift fund to the designated recipient. At checkout each participant sees their contribution, Stripe's card processing (2.9% + 30¢) and Poolsy's 2.5% fee listed separately — for example a $20 contribution is charged $20.00 + $0.88 + $0.50 = $21.38. Because both fees are added on top, the full gift fund reaches the recipient you chose.
Contributions are gifts to the designated recipient; predictions are for entertainment among invited participants.
