What will happen if someone goes to the store to purchase a gift off my registry?
They will be able to print out your registry at the store and buy you a gift. The store will mark it purchased on your registry with them and Amazing Registry will follow suit automatically.
How often does Amazing Registry synchronize my registries from each store?
We sync up with your registries at different times depending on activity:
- With no activity, it will sync once per 3 hours
- If someone visited your registry, it will sync once per hour for the next 24 hours
- If someone clicked on a gift, it will sync every 5 minutes for the first hour
- If someone purchases something off of your registry, it will sync once per hour for the
next 24 hours including purchases not through Amazing Registry
You can also log in and click the 'Refresh registry' button to force your registries to refresh.
Will Amazing Registry recognize all of my existing registries?
Yes, it will. You actually need to be registered at the individual stores. You can also add additional stores once your account has been created.
Will I still be able to participate in the store's gift registry completion programs?
Yes. You are still registered at the store and you get all the benefits of being registered there.
Is there a fee to use the site? If I create a registry do I get charged? Do my guests have a service charge if they purchase something off the registry or any other hidden costs?
Amazing Registry is completely free.
I purchased a gift off of a registry, and now it’s still showing as available. What gives?
Some stores take longer than others to mark gifts as purchased. As soon as they do, we show it as purchased. If it’s been more than 24 hours, please contact the store and ask them to mark the gift as purchased.
