Why ordering early is the safe choice

What the waitlist does

Joining the waitlist means we email you when orders open in November 2026. That's it: you don't pay anything, you don't upload a photo, and you're not committing to buy. Please use a parent's or another adult's email.

Can I order right now?

Not yet. HoHo Cam! isn't on sale until November 2026. Until then you can watch the real example, read what the footage looks like, and get your room ready.

Running late?

Plenty of Christmas magic needs no ordering at all: nibbled cookies, boot prints and a note from Santa. See 12 ways to show kids Santa was here.

⚠️ All sales are final. No refunds, exchanges or changes. The only exception: if we make a mistake (Santa says or shows the wrong name/spelling vs. what you typed, the video uses a different photo than the one you uploaded, or a technical defect like a broken file), we fix it free. Mistakes in the details you submit, or changing your mind, are not covered. Sales & refund policy →

🔒 Download your video and keep it — it's yours forever. To protect your family's privacy, we delete your photo 30 days after delivery and remove your video from our servers after 60 days. Your download link expires then, so save your copy.

AI disclosure: Santa, his motion and his voice are created with AI video and voice tools. The security-camera look is a creative effect, not real CCTV footage, and we're not affiliated with any camera brand. Every video carries a small “AI” label and is checked before delivery.
