STELLAR GIFTS LTD

What STELLAR GIFTS LTD does

Stellar Gifts Ltd is a UK-incorporated private limited company (registered in England and Wales, company number 12784613) operating under the trading name Stellar Star Registry. Founded around 2019 with its registered office in Mildenhall, Bury St. Edmunds, the company runs an independent star registry service that allows individual consumers to name celestial objects as commemorative gifts for occasions such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and memorials. The company explicitly positions itself as filling a gap left by official bodies such as NASA and the International Astronomical Union, which do not accept public star registrations.

The product is delivered through two linked websites: stellar-registry.org functions as the public lookup database where customers retrieve their registered star using a certificate star number, and buyastar.uk serves as the direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront where packages are purchased. Each registration assigns a unique celestial coordinate set (right ascension, declination, and magnitude) to a named star, and names are locked after a 72-hour error correction window, providing a permanent record. The technology stack is a self-contained web-based registry with no disclosed API, SDK, or mobile application, and there is no evidence of AI or machine learning components.

The business model is straightforward one-time unit pricing sold via a self-serve e-commerce flow with no sales intervention. Customers pay per star package on a pay-as-you-go basis; specific pricing tiers are not publicly disclosed. Distribution is entirely direct via owned websites, with no third-party resellers, channel partners, or institutional customers identified. Marketing is limited to organic SEO on the company websites themselves, with the public lookup feature functioning as both a product capability and a discovery channel. The company operates as an independent, unfunded private entity with no disclosed management team, employees, external investors, or public financial reporting.

Direct peers

• Star Register: European-based star naming service selling packages with certificates, coordinate data, and add-on gifts. Closely matches Stellar Gifts Ltd in offering, target market, and self-serve e-commerce GTM.

Broad incumbents

• Things Remembered: Established personalized gift retailer offering engraved and customized products for similar gifting occasions (birthdays, weddings, anniversaries). Broader product portfolio but competes for the same emotional/commemorative gift purchase moment.
