Common questions

Is this actually personalized, or just a template?: Actually personalized. We start with the photo you upload and generate an original illustration in your chosen style — watercolor, painterly, modern, and more. No template, no name-swap.
What do you write in a 5th grade graduation card?: Mark the moment, but don't try to predict the future. Middle school will be hard for everyone. What helps most: the specific thing your kid did this year that showed they're ready. The friendship they fought for, the project they cared about, the day they handled something hard. Stuck?

Can I include cash inside the card?: Yes. The envelope is a standard greeting-card size and easily holds cash or a check. Graduation cards are one of the most common gift-cash deliveries; we don't process the gift handling — you tuck whatever you want inside before sealing.
Can I schedule it to arrive on graduation day?: Yes. At checkout, pick the arrival date. Most senders prefer the card arrives the day OF or the week AFTER graduation — too early and it gets buried in the pre-ceremony chaos, too late and the moment has passed.
Can I mail it to a college dorm or to the family's home?: Both. For high school grads, the family's home is almost always the right address — they'll still be living there. For college grads, the family's home is often safer than the dorm (which they're vacating). Grad school is a coin flip — ask first if you're not sure.
What's the QR code on the card?: Record a 15-second voice or video message. We print a QR code on the inside of the card. For graduation specifically, this is the part the grad re-watches every time they move apartments and find the card in a box — a voice from this moment, saved.
How much does a card cost?: $19.99/year subscription, then $1.78 per card sent — everything included (custom illustration, envelope, stamp, USPS mailing). A retail graduation card runs roughly $5-9 all-in. Your first card is free.
Can I send the card without subscribing?: Yes — your first card is free, no subscription required. After that, the $19.99/year membership unlocks unlimited sends at $1.78 each.
