Questions about sending a card
How do I send a card?
Pick a design, write your message, and choose an envelope. Then email it directly or create a private link to share by text, chat, or any app. Whoever opens it doesn't need an account.
Does the person receiving it need an account?
No. The card opens in any browser. Nobody has to sign up or install anything to read it.
What do the designs cost?
Nothing. Every design in this gallery is free to send.
Can I use my own photo or artwork?
Yes. Upload your own image and it becomes the front of the card. A photo is cropped to the same shape as the designs here. An animated GIF is fitted inside that shape rather than cropped, and it keeps moving on the card.
What does the card look like when it arrives?
It arrives as a sealed envelope in the color you picked. The envelope opens, and the design and your message are inside.
Can I tell whether my card was opened?
Partly. Your cards list marks a card as viewed once someone opens the card page and the envelope reveal runs. The only views we leave out are your own, so if the link gets forwarded, whoever opens it counts. We can't tell one reader from another, and we don't track email opens at all.
Can they write back?
Yes, on the card page. They can tap a reaction or write a note back without an account, and the reply reaches you in GiftList. Replying to the email doesn't get to you: card email is sent from GiftList's address, not yours.
Whose email address does the card come from?
Ours, never yours. A card we email comes from GiftList, shown as your first name followed by “via GiftList”, and your own address is not in the message. It works the same way in reverse: picking someone you follow never shows you their address.
Does the card link expire?
No. A card link keeps working, and anyone holding it can open the card. Treat the link like the card itself.
