How much does it cost to use PiggyFund?

There is no cost to set-up your registry. Also, unlike other registries that charge guests a transaction fee, we do not apply any additional charges to your guest's contributions when they make a donation to your registry. We simply deduct a one-time fee of 6% from your total cash collection before we send you a check. It's that easy!

Why not just ask friends and family to mail a check instead of using the registry?

Good question! We also thought about this when we began our business. We realized that there would be no "appropriate" way to tell loved ones that a donation to the baby's college fund (instead of more clothes or another toy) was preferred for the baby's next birthday! With PiggyFund, your friends and family will realize the true importance of donating to your child's educational fund.

How long will my registry stay open?

Your account is active for six months, or until you request it to be closed.

How can I close my event registry and/or my account?

You will always have the option to close any of your event registries or your account, at anytime. Just send us an e-mail or letter with your request, and we will close your account or event registry and send you the actual cash collected, minus the small fee.

Where does the gift money go once it is given?

The gift money is held in a Pay Pal account until you are ready to collect your cash. We never use gift money to pay for our own business expenses. You can be certain that the money will not be touched by PiggyFund until you are ready to cash out, at which point we will deduct a small percentage from the total and mail you a check.

How do I receive the monetary gifts from my registry?

Once you request that we close your event's registry, we will send you a check for the total amount of cash actually received, minus the small transaction fee.

How do I let friends and family know where my child is registered?
