Intent

I need it when

Modernize and digitize a traditional holiday gift exchange tradition

Hohoho provides a paperless, app-based alternative to traditional Secret Santa methods, offering instant notifications when draws complete, smooth user interface, and support for 18+ languages, making the holiday custom accessible and engaging for modern groups.

Facilitate Secret Santa for geographically distant participants who need to ship gifts

Users can add shipping addresses to their profile, which are visible only to their assigned gift giver. This allows gifts to be sent directly to recipients across distances while maintaining anonymity and the element of surprise.

Keep gift recipient assignments private and maintain the surprise element of Secret Santa

The app ensures recipient details stay private and hidden from other participants until the draw completes. Only the assigned gift giver sees their recipient's information, preserving the mystery and excitement of the tradition.

Enable gift givers to learn about their assigned recipient's preferences to choose better gifts

Participants can share personal hints (e.g., 'I enjoy reading, coffee, and playing tennis') visible only to their assigned gift giver, helping them select thoughtful and relevant gifts without revealing who is giving to whom.

Organize a Secret Santa gift exchange for a group (class, workplace, or family) without manual coordination

Hohoho lets users create a group, share a unique join code, and automatically run a draw to assign gift recipients. This eliminates manual coordination, paper-based systems, and email confusion, making the process fast and simple with just a few taps.
