Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about cost, accounts, sharing, and how Bestboy handles donation money.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much is Bestboy?

Bestboy is currently free to use, while it's in beta. There's no paid tier right now.

### Do I need an account?

To create and manage your own lists, yes. To view a shared list, reserve a wish, or donate to one, no — anyone with the share link can do that without signing up. See [reserving a gift for someone](/help/reserving-a-gift).

### Can the same wish be on more than one list?

Yes — a wish isn't tied to a single list. Attach it to as many as you like from the wish's edit screen. See [adding and editing wishes](/help/adding-and-editing-wishes).

### Can the list owner see who reserved a wish?

No. The owner only sees that a wish is reserved, never who reserved it — that's what keeps the surprise safe. See [reserving a gift for someone](/help/reserving-a-gift).

### Does Bestboy handle the money for donations?

No. Bestboy only tracks that a wish is set up to collect donations and shows your donation details to visitors — the actual transfer happens directly between the donor and whatever payout details you provided. See [setting up donations](/help/setting-up-donations).

### Can I use Bestboy through an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes — connect one from [Settings → AI Agent](/settings/ai-agent) and it can add wishes, check reservations, or follow lists on your behalf. See [connecting an AI assistant](/help/connecting-an-ai-assistant).

### I'm stuck on something not covered here

Head back to the [Help Center](/help) and search, or start from [Getting started](/help/getting-started) if you're setting up your first list.
