How do I send a Father's Day card online?

Pick a design or upload your own, then write your message and add photos or a song if you want them. Enter the email address or phone number for your dad and for anyone else signing, and send yourself a test so you can see how the envelope opens. Then send it straight away, or schedule it for the morning of Father's Day. You get a notification when it is delivered and when it is opened.

Is it free to send a Father's Day card?

For most people sending one, yes. Trial mode covers a card sent to up to 10 people at no cost, which is enough for a card to your dad, or to your dad plus a few family members signing together. There are no ads in the card, on the page, or in the email, which is the usual trade you make on free e-card sites. Sending to more than 10 people moves the mailing to a paid package.

What happens if I send to more than 10 people?

The mailing moves to a paid package before it goes out, and nothing you have already designed is lost. A single mailing is a flat one-time price starting at $19, set by the number of people you are sending to, with no subscription required and no per-guest charges. If you send cards and invitations through the year, an annual membership covers unlimited mailings for one year, each for a separate purpose.

When is Father's Day, and when should I send the card?

In the US, the UK, and Canada, Father's Day falls on the third Sunday in June. Several countries mark it on a different date, so check the one that applies if your dad lives abroad. A digital card needs no printing or mail time, so you can send it the same day you make it, but scheduling is the better habit: set the card up on any free evening and it still lands on the morning of the day.

Can I send a Father's Day card to a dad in another state or country?

Yes, and it arrives the moment you send it rather than a week later. Send by email, or by text message (in supported countries), WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, or a sharable link if you do not have an email address for him. He needs no account, no app, and no download to open it, and the card opens the same way on a phone as it does on a laptop.

What should I write in a Father's Day card?

Name one specific thing instead of reaching for a general sentiment. A habit of his you picked up, something he taught you that you only understood years later, a running joke, a memory from one particular summer. Two or three sentences of that beat a paragraph of praise. If the two of you trade jokes, a funny card with one straight line at the end usually lands better than either on its own.

How does Greenvelope calculate people?

Each person (with or without email) added to the mailing list counts as (1) person. For example, "The Smith Family" of John, Jill, Tim, and Lauren would count as (4) people.

What if I am unsure how many people I need?

In this case, we recommend purchasing a smaller package initially. You can then easily purchase additional people from within your mailing on an as needed basis.

Can I send in multiple batches?

Greenvelope allows you to resend invitations or send invitations to new contacts at any time.

What if I need multiple versions of my card?

The best way to set this up would be to have two different mailings. You will need to purchase a separate "single mailing" package for each version.

Do you offer RSVP tracking?

Yes! Greenvelope's robust RSVP tracking makes planning effortless. You can collect RSVPs, track plus ones, gather meal selections, send RSVP reminders, set up seating charts, and more.

Can I also send my invitations via text message?

In addition to email, you can send your Greenvelope invitations and cards via SMS text message, WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, or a sharable link.

Do you offer digital thank you notes or save the dates?

Yes, in addition to our digital invitations and RSVP tracking, Greenvelope offers both save the dates and thank you notes. Each mailing type provides easy-to-use features, such as address collection on save the dates and individual customization for thank you notes.

What if I need to update my invitation after I've sent it?

You can do that! One of the many benefits of digital invitations is that you can add additional information, update your card, or quickly follow-up with guests with ease.

Can I send a sample to myself?

Yes! When you arrive at the 'Send' step after designing your mailing, your account information will automatically be added so you can easily send yourself a test and make sure everything looks exactly how you want it.
