How do I organise a group welcome card for a new starter?

A Thankbox is a perfect choice if you want everyone in the team, wherever they are, to give a new starter a warm welcome.

Because a Thankbox is a digital, virtual group card it is easy and quick to get started.

Follow these simple steps to let the whole team join in.

Create. One click to Create - a Classic or Premium Thankbox.
Enter the new starter’s name and a card title. Say who it’s from.
Decide to pay up front or later.
Choose whether to include a collection for a welcome gift.
Share. Email the unique link to the team to add their messages. Each message can include videos, photos, and GIFs.
Customise. Change your background, icon, or edit the detail while messages are rolling in. Upgrading to Premium unlocks even more customisations.
Send. When everyone has added their welcome messages, have a quick review, check the recipient’s details and Send - immediately or schedule it to land on their first day.

That’s it. Quick, simple and welcoming.

Why send an online welcome card instead of a paper one?

Traditional cards have no place in the modern workplace. Teams work remotely, or in a hybrid manner, all around the world.

Welcoming a new starter calls for a virtual, online card. It has many advantages over a paper card. Including:

Inclusivity - everyone, anywhere in the world can add their welcome message. All it needs is an internet connection. Nobody is excluded, so the new starter feels welcomed by the whole team.
No limit on contributions - there is no limit to the number of contributors or the length of their messages. Whether the team is five people or five hundred, everyone can join in.
Efficiency - click, create, share, customise, send. It takes seconds to invite people to add messages and contribute to a welcome gift at the same time.
Creativity. A Thankbox features photos, GIFs and videos, different fonts and emojis. A great way to put faces to names before day one.
Customisations - designs, fonts, messages, titles and more can all be changed right up to the point of sending.
Lasts a lifetime. The unique Thankbox link will always be live. The new starter can revisit their welcome in seconds. An option to download as a PDF is available.
Great value. One payment opens up a world of possibilities and creativity for online group cards. And with a Thankbox a collection pot comes as standard so no extra organisation.
Being green. A Thankbox is good for the planet. No emissions. 100% renewable electricity. No paper means no wasted energy, water, or chemical disposal. We also plant a tree for every 10 Thankboxes sold 🌲

With a welcome card everyone, anywhere in the world, gets to say hello.

Can I include a welcome gift or collection?

Absolutely! A collection for a welcome gift is a standard option with a Thankbox.

It’s extremely easy. Just click Add a gift card collection when you create your Thankbox, choose your currency and whether the collection amount is public or not.

For a new starter it’s common for the company to contribute the welcome gift. This is easy too. A one-time contribution can be made.

If you’d prefer, everyone you invite to leave a message can add to the collection pot at the same time. Saving everyone a lot of time and hassle.

When should I send a welcome card to a new employee?

There’s no single right moment - it depends on the welcome you want to give. The most popular choices are:

Before their first day - so a warm welcome from the whole team is waiting for them when they arrive. Schedule the Thankbox to land on their start date.
On day one - a friendly hello to kick off their first morning and help them feel part of the team straight away.
At the end of week one - once they’ve met a few people, so messages can be a little more personal.
After probation or onboarding - to celebrate them settling in and becoming part of the team.

Because you can schedule a Thankbox for any date and time, you can set it up well in advance and let it send itself at the perfect moment.

What other ways can teams use Thankbox to welcome and onboard people?

Many Thankbox customers are organisations large and small. Whether businesses, public sector or not-for-profit.

Welcoming and onboarding new starters is just one of the ways teams use Thankbox. Other common workplace use-cases include:

Onboarding milestones - mark the end of a new starter’s first month or successful probation with a group card.
As a team ‘thank you’ to appreciate someone for a great job or going that extra mile on a project.
To congratulate a coworker on professional qualifications and continued professional development.
Celebrating personal milestones - birthdays, work anniversaries, engagements and weddings, becoming a parent.

Whatever the use - an online group card that allows the whole team to contribute (including all the senior execs) strengthens team bonds, boosts individual self-esteem and brings people closer.

Is Thankbox secure for collecting messages from my team?

Thankbox takes security very seriously. Our servers and software are secure and compliant with best practice security protocols. Payment processing is handled by Stripe, one of the most secure and widely used digital payment platforms.

Only people with the sharing link can access a Thankbox and only to leave a message or contribute.

We adhere to GDPR regulations and sensitive data is never shared to third parties without consent.
