Frequently Asked Questions

We provide more answers on our support page, so check that too if you can't find what you are looking for here.

What is Thankbox and how does it work for birthday cards?

Thankbox is a digital greeting card platform that helps you create personalized birthday cards online. Invite friends, family, or colleagues to contribute messages, photos, and even videos to celebrate someone's special day.

Can multiple people contribute to the birthday card?

Yes, Thankbox is perfect for group contributions. Invite as many people as you want to add their personal messages, photos, and videos, making the birthday card a truly collaborative celebration.

How do I manage access and privacy for the birthday card?

As the card creator, you control who can view and contribute to the card. Send invitations via email or share a link to ensure only those you choose can add their messages.

Is there a limit to how many messages or media can be added?

There’s no limit to the number of contributors or the amount of content they can add. Whether it’s a small note or an elaborate birthday wish, participants can contribute freely until the card is finalized.

Can I schedule when the birthday card is delivered?

Absolutely! You can choose a delivery date to ensure the card arrives at just the right moment, whether it's at a birthday party or exactly on their birthday morning.

Left it to the last minute? No sweat! Create your Thankbox now, schedule it to send, and we can guarantee next day card delivery, wherever they are in the world.

Is Thankbox trustworthy? Where can I read Thankbox reviews?

Our mission is to spread joy. We take pride in our hundreds of 5-star reviews on Trustpilot, where users describe Thankbox as fast and easy to use. Many find it especially helpful for staying connected with loved ones and expressing appreciation in group events.

How secure is Thankbox for birthday cards?

Thankbox takes security seriously. Our servers and software are secure and follow best security practices. Payment processing is handled by Stripe, known for its secure digital payment methods. Only individuals with the share link or specific invitations can view, leave messages, or contribute money. We comply with GDPR regulations, ensuring no sensitive data is shared with third parties without consent.

Who uses Thankbox birthday cards?

Thankbox is perfect for anyone wanting to send birthday wishes!

Common scenarios include:

Work colleagues celebrating a team member's birthday.
Groups of friends sending collective birthday messages and organising a gift.
Families celebrating birthdays together, even when they live far apart.
Anyone wanting a simple way to gather messages and gift contributions for a birthday.

Can people share their birthday messages privately?

Yes. When adding a message, contributors have the option to mark it as private. Your message will only be vieweable to the recipient, the organiser, and yourself.

Can Thankbox be used by individuals rather than groups for birthdays?

Definitely!

While great for groups, Thankbox also offers an ecard layout that looks great even with just one or a few messages, making it suitable for smaller birthday greetings or even one-to-one sending.

The card layout is very similar to a traditional birthday greetings card.

Can I send free birthday cards with Thankbox?

No, you cannot send birthday cards for free. Thankbox is a paid service.

You can set up your card and start collecting messages for free, but there's a fee to send it to the recipient.

Premium options with added customization and higher money collection limits are available.

You may pay this fee from the gift collection pot, allowing the cost to be shared among all contributors.

What if someone forgets to add their message before the card is sent?

No worries! You can keep the card open for late submissions even after sending the initial version to the recipient. This way, everyone gets a chance to share their wishes.

What if I encounter technical issues while creating the birthday card?

Contact Thankbox customer support for any technical assistance.

What should I write in a birthday card?

Finding the right words to convey your birthday wishes can be challenging. Whether you’re aiming for heartfelt, humorous, or casual, the inclusion of group contributions allows for a rich variety of sentiments. Use our AI card message generator to find the perfect message or read below for some ideas to get started:
