secret.gift Now Works Inside Telegram

What the bot does

• Gift exchanges in three modes — Secret Santa, an open draw where everyone sees the pairs, and White Elephant with a random turn order.
• One invite link for your group chat. People tap it and they are in; the organizer draws names when everyone has joined.
• The draw result lands in each person's DM — who they are giving to, that person's wishes and delivery address, all in one message.
• Wishlists you fill by pasting links. Send the bot a link from any shop and it becomes a wish with a title, photo and price.
• Guests reserve gifts right in Telegram, and the list owner never sees who took what.

Made something on the site already?

Open your group or wishlist on secret.gift and press Run it in Telegram. One tap in Telegram and it shows up in the bot, under “My groups” or “My lists”. The site keeps working exactly as before — the two are the same data, not a copy.

Prefer not to use Telegram at all? Nothing changes: every feature still works in the browser, without signing up.

Privacy, briefly

• The bot only talks in a private chat. Adding it to a group chat does nothing — it never reads your group conversations.
• In Secret Santa mode nobody sees the pairs, the organizer included.
• Send /stop at any time and the bot stops writing to you.

How to start

Open @YourSecretGiftBot, press Start and pick “Gift exchange” or “Wishlist”. The full walkthrough, mode by mode, is in our guide to running Secret Santa in Telegram.
