Overview

Within one quarter, the my squad launched a brand new version of the Etsy registry product, globally.

We believed that there was an opportunity to create more awareness for Etsy and its unique inventory by allowing buyers to create gift registries for weddings (and other life events).

Building on the existing registry product, we wanted to invest one quarter in bringing the product back to life to see what value can be derived from allowing buyers to register for gifts on Etsy.
