Pick the gift

FAQ

Common questions.

How does a group gift work?

Pick one gift and share your Budling link. Guests chip in any amount. When it's funded, the money is paid out to you and you claim the gift on your terms.

What if we raise more or less than the gift costs?

Every dollar gets used. Top up the difference, swap to a different gift, or take the total as a retailer gift card. If a gift can't be fulfilled, contributions are refunded.

Do I need to connect a bank account?

No - Budling doesn't pay out to you. Funded gifts arrive at your door; leftovers come as a gift card by email. Just a shipping address.

How does Budling make money?

Retailer commissions - the same way cashback sites work. No platform fees, no subscriptions, no cut of the gifts.
