It’s no wonder the tagline for Amazon’s Baby Registry is “Everything you’re looking for. All in one place.” From convenience to selection to numerous perks, these words accurately sum up the baby registry experience with this powerhouse retailer. And as many of us are used to shopping on Amazon, setting up a registry on the site is easy and convenient. Not to mention it’s simple for your friends and family to shop from too!

For one mom in Montréal, the convenience of registering with Amazon was key. “We had a lot of family and friends in different regions/countries, so it was easier for them (and us) to know what we were getting and have it delivered to our place,” she said. “And if someone bought an item on another website, they could still mark it on Amazon so we would not get doubles.” 

Amazon’s baby registry also features perks such as a completion discount, the ability to enable group gifting as well as an enormous selection of baby products. So, if you’re ready to get started on your Amazon baby registry, keep reading for all the perks and details that make registering easier on Amazon.

8 Things That Make Registering Easier at Amazon

1. Amazon’s Baby Checklist

Amazon makes creating your registry a breeze with their baby checklist—a list of the most commonly needed items for baby. The checklist automatically marks items off when you add them to your registry. Don’t want a recommended item? You can simply remove it from the list.

2. Set Up a Diaper Fund

Make it easy for your family and friends to contribute to a gift you know you’ll need—a diaper fund! All contributions will be sent to you via an electronic Amazon gift card, ensuring you’ll always have diapers on hand when needed.

3. Massive Selection of Products

Amazon literally has millions of products to choose from—even products from small businesses—so you are bound to find everything you need and want for your baby. Plus, you can add physical gift cards for other companies like DoorDash to your registry. Feeding new parents is important, too!

4. Extended Return Window

No matter how much research you do, sometimes you just can’t predict if a product will really work for your baby and your family. Amazon’s extended return window allows you to return items from your registry for 365 days in case something doesn’t work out.

5. Registry Completion Discount

No matter what your plans are, babies are unpredictable! Be ready for the unexpected with Amazon’s registry completion discount. After your registry is active for 14 days, you qualify for a 15 percent discount on items purchased 60 days before your due date and for up to 90 days afterward. 

“The best feature for me was the completion discount. It lasts longer than most other registry sites,” said Tori from Chicago.

6. Allows for Easy Group Gifting

Hoping to receive some of the bigger ticket items from family and friends? Enable the group gifting option, which allows people to contribute what they like to a larger item

7. The Amazon Welcome Box

Get a sneak peek at common baby items such as onesies, bottles, and coupons with Amazon’s welcome box. Prime members get a box after adding 10 items to their registry and after receiving $10 in purchases.

8. Helpful Registry Management Tools

Amazon makes it a breeze to manage your registry. You are able to tag the items you want most to help your family and friends shop. You can also easily manage thank you’s since the registry keeps track of who purchased what items.
