Graduation registry
A graduation registry for grad money, dorm essentials and the next adventure
Relatives want to celebrate the graduate — and most of them were going to give money anyway. Give them a page with the plan: the laptop, the dorm, the first apartment or the trip before the first job.
A grad money fund
An open fund where each relative chooses the amount, with a note about what it will pay for.
Big items in shares
Split the laptop, the car fund or the study-abroad trip so the whole family can join in.
Party and RSVP
Share the open house details and collect RSVPs on the same link.
Messages to keep
Every gift comes with a message from family and friends for the graduate to keep.
Graduation registry for high school and college
High school graduates are usually heading to college or a first job, so the registry tends to be dorm gear, textbooks and a laptop. College graduates are moving into a first apartment or starting a career — think furniture, work clothes, a moving fund or a trip before the job starts.
Who manages a graduation registry?
The graduate or a parent. Whoever creates the registry chooses where the money goes — the graduate's own Venmo or bank account, or a parent's account if the graduate is under 18.

Questions
How much money do people give for graduation?
It varies with the relationship and the milestone. Many guests give between $25 and $100, and close family often more. A registry with gifts at several prices lets everyone give comfortably.
Does Presentou take a cut of the gifts?
No. Guests send money straight to your own Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, Cash App or bank account. Presentou never holds the money and charges no fee on gifts — you pay a one-time $19 to publish your registry for 12 months.
Do my guests need an account?
No. Guests open your link, pick a gift, leave a message and pay with the app they already use. No sign-up, no password.
How do I know who sent what?
When a guest says they paid, you get an email and a notification with their name, the gift and the amount. You check your account and confirm with one tap — and you have everything you need for thank-you notes.
Can I build the registry before paying?
Yes. Creating your registry, adding gifts and designing your site is free. You only pay when you're ready to share it with guests.
