How to Customize Your Be Her Village Baby Registry
The Be Her Village registry is loaded with options to choose from to make your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience as smooth as it can be. But we’re not pretending to know everything that YOU might want and need for support and comfort. Luckily, the options are endless as you can add any custom service you might want or need. 


Maybe the gal that does your nails has promised to come to your house to keep your fingers and toes fresh after you’ve had your baby, maybe you want to fly in your best friend from out of town for support after birth, or maybe you and your partner want to put money aside to commemorate the pregnancy but are undecided on exactly what that’ll be. With the cash option, The Be Her Village Registry is totally customizable and completely yours. On your registry home page, just click the top right tab that says “Custom Service” and add whatever name and description that fits best, as well as add the monetary amount you’re requesting.









Get your cash fast with Stripe:

The Be Her Village Registry is happy to offer a super easy and secure way for people to contribute to your registry. Because let’s face it, parenthood is not cheap or easy-- so we have created a way for you to get your cash quickly and simply. You’re totally welcome to select the option to receive cash or checks via snail mail, but if you’d rather have money deposited instantly into your bank account and not have to deal with tons of envelopes, we suggest choosing the option to add Stripe to your registry. It’s fast and simple and definitely worth the couple of extra clicks it’s going to take to add it. Stripe will ask you for some info: first the basics-- name, email, and phone number. Next, Stripe asks for your occupation and business website, don’t stress-- choose whatever occupation you want from the list, and leave the pre-filled-in Be Her Village website written in the website box as is. Then Stripe will ask for your bank information-- routing and account number, as well as the last four digits of your social security number. (Be Her Village is not collecting this information, it’s all going to Stripe). Stripe collects this information so the funds that people contribute towards your gifts will move directly into your bank account without any extra steps-- we like easy, don’t you? It’ll be simple and quick to keep track of who has paid how much to whichever services you’ve selected. There is a small processing fee for each transaction, but you don’t have to worry about that, only the person contributing money to your registry will see this as they purchase your gifts, it’ll be clearly marked.(A small percentage of this goes to our close friends at Maternal Spotlight--a non-profit dedicated to improving Maternal wellbeing) 
Once all of your information is set up with Stripe, your Be Her Village Registry will be ready for you to request and receive all of the support you’ll need for a better pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience. Welcome to your new registry at BeHerVillage.com!
