How is this different from basic Secret Santa generators?

Most generators solve a one-time holiday draw. SecretSantaSwap is a year-round swap platform with reusable groups, richer wishlists, participant tracking, reminders, and admin controls.

Can people ask anonymous questions before buying?

Yes. Participants can send anonymous messages to clarify sizing, interests, and preferences without revealing identities.

Can I prevent certain pairings?

Yes. Add exclusions, household rules, and last-year avoidance for fairer matching.

Do you support non-gift swaps?

Yes. You can run activity swaps, recipe swaps, and wishlist-only group formats.
