How to send a card overseas when the post won't make it in time

Distance is what makes cards awkward. Airmail is slow and unpredictable, the local card shop doesn't help, and a text feels like the least you could do. Send Card handles both routes: a digital card that arrives anywhere in the world in seconds for $1.99, or a real printed card posted internationally for $9.99.

The timezone problem, solved

Sending from New Zealand to London means your evening is their morning, and hitting send at the wrong moment ruins the surprise. Schedule the card for the exact date, time and timezone you want — 9am on their birthday, their clock — and it delivers itself while you sleep. Scheduling adds $1.00.

Pay in your currency, not a converted one

Prices are shown and charged in USD, NZD, AUD, GBP, EUR or CAD. The site guesses from your browser and you can switch currency at any time in the header, so you're not paying a mystery conversion on top.

Posting a real card abroad

If you'd rather they hold it, we print the card and post it for you — currently to the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and most of Europe. You give us the address once; we handle printing, the envelope and the stamp, and you can follow the posted date and expected delivery in your card history.

Not sure it'll arrive on the day? Send the digital card for the date itself and post the printed one as the follow-up. It costs less than most bunches of flowers.

Keeping track of family in other countries

Save the people you send to, with their birthdays and key dates, and we'll remind you a few days before — with a link that pre-fills their name and the occasion. The remembering is the hard part; the card takes a minute.
