Secret Santa Survey Form Template

Organize your Secret Santa exchange with a survey that captures gift preferences and keeps assignments tidy.

Start with this template

Coordinating a Secret Santa without knowing what people actually want leads to a lot of awkward gift exchanges and forgotten budget ranges. When gift givers have no information to work with, they default to safe and forgettable choices — or panic-buy something generic at the last minute.

A Typeform Secret Santa survey collects gift preferences, wish list ideas, and budget acknowledgments from every participant before assignments are made. People share what they like, what they don't, and any preferences that help their secret gifter pick something genuinely good. Conditional logic can ask follow-up questions based on hobbies or interests to get more specific suggestions. Once everyone's submitted, you have the information you need to make the exchange actually enjoyable.

Customize it with your group's budget range, exchange date, and any themed categories. Share the link with participants and collect responses before drawing names.

Secret Santa Survey Form Template FAQs:

A Secret Santa survey form collects gift preferences, wish list ideas, and any relevant information from participants in a Secret Santa gift exchange. It helps the gift giver choose something the recipient will actually enjoy.

Without a preference survey, gifters have almost no information to work with, which leads to generic choices. A short survey with specific preferences turns the exchange from a guessing game into a thoughtful gift-giving experience for everyone.

Ask enough to be genuinely useful without making it feel like homework:

  • Name and contact email
  • Budget range acknowledgment
  • Hobbies or interests
  • Things they love receiving (books, experiences, food, etc.)
  • Things to avoid (dietary restrictions, allergies, things they have too many of)
  • A specific wish list item or two if they have ideas

Don't share the full survey results with the group — only send each gifter the preferences of the person they've been assigned. You can manage assignments manually or use a dedicated Secret Santa tool in combination with the preference data collected through Typeform.

This depends on your team's culture and comfort level, but $20-$30 is common for workplace exchanges. Include the agreed budget range in the survey instructions so participants are aligned from the start, and add a confirmation question asking them to acknowledge the budget.

Delivery Details Form

Delivery Details Form

A gate code mentioned once over the phone doesn't make it into the driver's hands three deliveries later. Collect what your delivery team actually needs, address, access instructions, and delivery preferences, before the truck leaves for the day.

Nationality Verification Form

Nationality Verification Form

A self-certification buried in a stack of new account paperwork isn't the kind of record a compliance team can rely on for a regulatory filing. Collect nationality, tax residency, and a signed declaration before an account opens, so compliance isn't chasing down a customer's citizenship status after the fact.

Policy Cancellation Form

Policy Cancellation Form

A cancellation requested over the phone doesn't leave a clear record of exactly what date the policyholder actually asked for, and that date matters more than it sounds like it should. Collect what your agency actually needs, policy details, identity verification, and the requested effective date, before coverage actually ends.

Inheritance Beneficiary Form

Inheritance Beneficiary Form

Asking a grieving family member for the same banking details across three different phone calls doesn't make settling an estate go any faster. Collect what your firm actually needs, beneficiary information, identification, and distribution details, in one submission instead of three calls.

Personal Training Informed Consent Form

A consent form signed in the ten seconds before a first session isn't the kind of informed agreement that holds up if something goes wrong. Walk clients through the specific risks of training and get a signed, dated acknowledgment before the first rep, so consent actually means what the word implies.

Unconditional Release Form

Unconditional Release Form

A lien waiver signed at the job site with a pen borrowed from someone's truck isn't the kind of document a lender wants to see before releasing a draw. Collect the project, payment details, and a signed unconditional release before funds go out, so a draw isn't held up by a waiver nobody can find.
