Good simple site It was easy to set up, easy to retrieve the payments. The browser link was also simple to work with I dont know how hard was it for our guests to set up the payments so can't comment on that. I guess one addition that you can incorporate is to actually buy the stuff linked with money allocated, though I guess that would require additional prod dev on your side. Its just a thought.

Perfect for our wedding registry We liked how SimpleRegistry dealt only with money and we could go out and buy the items ourselves, especially because we weren't sure where we were living and now we're living in a small space that may not be able to fit everything at once. Just be aware of the small fees they charge for each contribution.

Such a great idea This allowed us to have a honeymoon fund and building on it from the engagement to the wedding. If I didn't want something that I originally thought I did, I could cash out on it. So perfect for two houses combining and not having gone through storage prior to registering. Recommend this!

Great way to get the things you need Simple registry made it easy for our guests to get us useful and beautiful gifts. We had a lot of guests traveling a great distance to make it to our wedding and they really appreciated not having to lug around a present.

Service Charges Ruined My Experience Maybe there's an ad-supported option you can offer customers? Just so people don't *have* to forfeit their gift money. It feels very un-gratifying to get some percentage instead of a nice whole number, psychologically. Or maybe just have a flat membership fee that the registrant pays upfront? Also, I opted for my money to be paid via PayPal. I believe PayPal also charged a fee. You should warn customers of this. I would've certainly opted for a check if I knew PayPal would skim off the top as well. Won't use your service again—or recommend it—as a result of these fees. Perhaps if you made some changes, I would. It's too bad, because the concept is good, and the service is helpful. It won't be long before a competitor solves the fee problem and steals the market. Just a thought.
