Benefits of accepting credit cards in your Hitchd registry

Hitchd takes the guesswork out of gift-giving for guests by letting you create any kind of gift, experience, or fund. Guests can then contribute instantly with their credit cards, allowing you to receive the funds directly to your bank account.

There is still an illusion that having a giant, overflowing, gift table at your wedding is appropriate and practical. It's not.

Guests simply prefer the ease of contributing their hard-earned money towards a gift that they know you will truly love. A gift that you've picked out yourself that has meaning or purpose.

Frequently
asked questions

    • Once you enable Stripe as your payment provider, guests will choose an amount to give, enter a personalized wish and their credit card details.

    • All funds are automatically transferred to your bank account directly from Stripe. Your first payout is made 7-10 days after your first contribution is received. Subsequent payouts are within 2-5 working days. We'll always notify you by email when a guest contributes to a gift.

    • We support most major international currencies, with more added regularly. You set the currency once your registry is created and can change it up until the first contribution is received.

    • We do things differently. With Hitchd, you can sign up, edit your registry and add gifts, all without paying a cent. You'll only ever be charged a once-off fee when you launch your registry live. Stripe, our payment provider, charges a small transaction fee per contribution we simply can't avoid (1.4% + $0.30 - 2.9% + $0.30 depending on location), which can be paid by guests or absorbed by the couple.

    • No. Guests actually feel empowered to contribute towards something that they know the couple will actually love.
