It's free to use, but in order to provide you with the full benefits of Honeyseed, there are a few fees for each transaction on the contributions made to you. The fee breakdown looks like this:

• 2.9% + $0.30 — Credit card fee—goes to your credit card company
• $0.25 — Third party platform fee—goes to Stripe Connect
• 5% — Honeyseed fee that allows us to operate our website for you

The registrant may choose to absorb the fees and have them deducted from the amount they receive. To change this setting, go to “Account Settings,” navigate to the “Details” tab, click “Edit Registry,” and under “Fee Coverage,” select “Processing fees are taken from each contribution.” You can always change this setting again later.

You can search for a friend or family member's registry here. Or, use the link that was sent to you by the Honeyseed registrant. Your registrant may have even included a link to their Honeyseed registry on their baby shower invitation.

Once you have found your friend or family's registry, you can either gift specific items or contribute an amount of your choice to specific funds (minimum $10). The checkout process is safe, and secure, and as easy as any other online purchase.

Yes, you can rest assured your transactions are protected on Honeyseed. We have partnered with Stripe Connect and Plaid to ensure an easy and efficient experience that is also safe for your funds.

Thanks to these seamless integrations, we don't even store your banking information on our platform.

Honeyseed does not provide any physical services. We help you collect funds so that you can use the cash to pay your choice service providers directly.

We also connect with providers to share their wisdom with you through our journal and podcast. If you are a maternal wellness or infant care provider, we'd love to connect with you and share your wisdom with our community! Please reach out to us at hello@honeyseed.com.

Check out our journal for editorial to help you understand the many services available to new families during planning, pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.

Also, ask your friends and family for recommendations on what made their journey extra special. They're typically the best ones to offer a trusted, firsthand referral.

You will receive an email from us every time someone makes a contribution to your baby registry. As long as you have linked your bank account, you will receive your funds automatically when someone makes a contribution.

There's nothing more for you to do but wait for it to hit your bank! Depending on your bank, it typically takes 2-3 days to reflect in your bank account. But, you can always look in "My Registry" to view your total contributions in real time.

As long as you want it to! There are a lot of milestones in the first years of your baby's life and we hope to grow with you and be there for your family along the way.

There are a number of easy ways for your friends and family to find your registry. When you're logged into your account, go to "My Registry" and in the top right corner you'll find an option to "Share registry link". You can copy and paste that link into a text message, email, or social media of your choice.

We also encourage you to include a link on your digital baby shower registry, to make it easier for your friends and family to find you. Most online invitations (Paperless Post, Evite, and others) have a special section where you can add a link to your registry.

Your friends and family can always search for you on our search page.
