Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built A Better Gift after watching too many friends and family members struggle to ask for help — and watching the people who wanted to help feel weird sending money over Venmo or PayPal with no context.
GoFundMe works for big public campaigns and viral stories. But most people just need a little help with a medical bill, a car repair, or a rough month — and they want to ask the people who already love them, not strangers on the internet.
A Better Gift is for that. Create a request, share it privately with trusted friends and family, and receive funds directly to your bank account. No public feed, no platform fees from supporters, no strangers.
Would love your feedback — especially on what you think is missing, or what would make you actually use this for someone in your life.
