Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Everyone must have a userid to make a wish or grant a wish.

YESINDEED WISHES is a free community website. There are no costs to make WISHES, or grant WISHES.

Please email us a Link to the WISH or a screenshot of the WISH to yesindeedinc@gmail.com

It is the responsibility of the granter to research the wisher before granting a WISH. Most scammers will not give you much information. They withhold information such as: last name, address, a phone to contact them, and personal details. Where as most “real” wishers are happy that someone is helping them and will provide you with almost any information. Try to send gift cards or items instead of cash. If you feel that someone is trying to scam you on the YESINDEED WISHES website, please notify us at: yesindeedinc@gmail.com.

Always use common sense. Under no circumstance should you give out personal information such as: social security number, credit card numbers or bank information. If you would like assistance to complete a WISH, you may contact one of our staff at yesindeedinc@gmail.com.

1. As we grow, we will have names listed on a scammer alert page. If you receive an email from one of them, DO NOT reply to them at all. Instead, let us know immediately at yesindeedinc@gmail.com

2. Never give out personal information such as credit card and bank account numbers… not even to people that you feel that you “know” from the site.

3. Never cash a check from someone who writes it out for more than the amount that you expected and asks you to send him the change. This is ALWAYS a scam!

4. If you receive an email that makes you feel uncomfortable in any way, forward it to us immediately. Do not reply to the message! Engaging in conversation will just encourage them.

YESINDEED WISHES is doing everything we can to block scammers from our site, and we appreciate you letting us know about any suspicious activity.

Once registered, you may post up to two WISHES at a time. Please DO NOT edit your WISH after it has been granted. You can always add more in the comments.

The power of YESINDEED WISHES is its ability to connect people. For some, that means connecting with a person they’ve never met, a loved one they’ve lost touch with, even a friend who you WISH could be more than just a friend. It’s your WISH.

Yes you may. In fact, parents or guardians are required to post WISHES on behalf of children under the age of 18. Please DO NOT Post a WISH for someone who is already actively making or granting WISHES on our site without getting permission from yesindeedinc@gmail.com.

YESINDEED WISHES is designed for you to receive and accept multiple offers on your WISH. Once a WISH has been granted, YOU or an ADMIN will mark WISH granted. If a WISH is only partially fulfilled–in the case of accepting donations for a family, an organization, or an entire community–a new WISH may be posted using the same information.

Yes, the choice to be a recognized or anonymous Hero is entirely up to you. To grant someone’s WISH anonymously, send an email and the link to the WISH to yesindeedinc@gmail.com and we will grant on your behalf.

Yes you may. However, you may not publicize the names of individuals to whom you grant WISHES without their express written permission.

YESINDEED’s WISHES core differentiator, when compared to charities and other “giving” websites, is enabling people to have complete control over the destiny of their gift by giving it directly to the recipient. Since gifts and donations are given directly to individuals, not filtered through a charitable organization, they are not tax deductible. However, if you donate to us via the donate button anywhere on the website it is tax deductible.
