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, cartoon, painterly, vintage, modern, and more. No template, no name-swap.
What do you write in a thank you card to a friend?: Not 'thanks for being a great friend.' Specific. The call they took when you needed it. The thing they didn't tell anyone. The way they showed up when no one else did. Friends don't need cards that sound like cards. They need cards that sound like you. Stuck? Tap AI Message.
Can I mail it to a school or office address?: Yes. Teachers, doctors, nurses, coaches — they don't share home addresses. At checkout, enter the school, office, or facility address as the delivery address. The card arrives at their workplace mail.
How much does a card cost?: $19.99/year subscription, then $1.78 per card sent — everything included (custom art render, envelope, stamp, USPS mailing). A premium retail thank you card runs roughly $5–9 all-in (card $4–8 + stamp), so Pigeon Post is about 65–70% cheaper per card. Your first card is free.
How long does delivery take?: USPS first-class typically 3–5 business days in the US. For end-of-school-year teacher thank-yous, send the week before the last day so it lands while school's still in session.
What's the QR code on the card?: Optional — record a 15-second video and we print a QR code on the inside of the card. When the recipient scans it with their phone, your video plays. For a teacher card from a kid, or a nurse card from a patient who can't say it in person, this is the part that breaks people.
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.
