15 minutes ยท Macy's Registry thank-yous

Send thank-you cards from your Macy's Registry in 15 minutes.

Macy's keeps a Gift Tracker on every registry: sign in and it lists the gifts you have received and lets you mark off thank-you notes as you send them. What it does not do is send anything. ShipNote turns that same record into printed, stamped, USPS-mailed postcards in about fifteen minutes.

How to send thank-you cards from your Macy's registry

  1. 1

    Open your Gift Tracker

    On macys.com, sign in and select Gift Registry in the top-right menu; in the Macy's app, sign in, tap your name in the bottom-right corner, then select Manage Your Registry. Macy's own help puts it plainly: "Sign in and visit the Gift Tracker tab to view gifts received and manage thank-you notes."

  2. 2

    Reconcile what is actually in your hands

    An item can read as purchased before it reaches you. Macy's lists four reasons: the gift is still in transit, the guest hasn't delivered it yet, the item is on backorder, or the item was returned. Work from what you have actually opened, not only from the tracker, or you will thank someone for a gift that got sent back.

  3. 3

    Copy the giver list

    Select the Gift Tracker list and copy it. You want the giver's name next to the gift they gave โ€” that pairing is the whole point, and it is what the parser reads.

  4. 4

    Paste it into ShipNote

    Drop the list into the Recipients screen and the parser pulls out each giver and their gift. Macy's help documents the Gift Tracker as showing gifts received and managing thank-you notes; it does not document handing you mailing addresses, so add each address inline as you build the batch. They are saved for anniversaries and future occasions.

  5. 5

    Customize and mail

    Pick a wedding postcard, write one template message with [name] and [gift] placeholders, and we print, stamp, and mail every card the next business day โ€” $1.99 each on 10+.

Skip the spreadsheet entirely โ€” paste your Macy's registry into ShipNote and we'll handle the rest.

How it works

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our US postcard service with next business day shipping

Macy's documents the Gift Tracker as the place to "view gifts received and manage thank-you notes" โ€” it does not document sharing gift-givers' mailing addresses with the registrant, which is the norm across registries. Plan on supplying addresses yourself. ShipNote lets you add each one inline as you build the batch and keeps them for next time, so it is a one-time job rather than a per-occasion one.

Because the Gift Tracker tracks them, it doesn't send them. Its thank-you feature is a checkbox you tick once you have written and mailed a card yourself. ShipNote is the part that checkbox assumes you have already done: real postcards, printed, addressed, stamped, and handed to USPS.

Macy's names four causes: the gift is still in transit, the guest hasn't delivered it yet, the item is on backorder, or the item was returned. Check the Gift Tracker tab for updates before you write. Thanking someone for a returned gift is the one mistake here that is genuinely awkward, and it is avoidable by working from what you have opened.

Per Macy's: your registry remains available in stores and online for 18 months after your event date, or 18 months after the last registry activity, whichever is later. That is a generous window, but it is also the clock on your gift record โ€” export or paste the giver list well before it closes rather than relying on it being there.

Yes, and Macy's states one condition: your registry must be set to Public to sync with a universal registry. If you are consolidating several registries into one list, that setting is the thing that usually blocks it.
