less stuff, more fun.

Tikado is an online gifting platform for children, making birthday giving less about stuff and more about fun - whether it’s saving up for a new project, an experience or a big ticket item.

At Tikado, we love birthdays - they are a time for getting together, celebrating and making memories. But they can also result in toys that don’t get played with and more ‘things’ to find a home for. Not to mention the task of buying gifts for the many class party invitations that come home from school…!

Tikado is an online ‘pot’ that receives contributions to one big gift, making children’s birthday gifting easier and more fun for everyone.

how does it work?

  1. Get in touch with details of the birthday girl or boy and what they’d like to save for

  2. We’ll set up a personalised Tikado webpage (password protected) with a payment link to contribute (via secure payment platforms)*

  3. You share the link with friends and family

  4. Once the birthday is over, Tikado transfers contributions to you in one lump sum

  5. Go have fun and make some memories!

* Payments are securely processed by Stripe. Standard card fees apply to each donation.
