GoGift utilizes the convenience of the traditional gift registry and provides a tasteful alternative when cash is the preferred gift. “Since our inception, the concept of an online cash gift registry has been welcomed with open arms.” Trent Long – President & Co-Founder

According to Emily Post (in response to a survey conducted by the weddingchannel.com), “42% of brides and grooms-to-be said that ‘how to request money as a wedding gift’ is the most challenging etiquette issue they face as they plan their weddings.” GoGift was created as an answer to today’s financial burdens such as weddings and higher education.
