When you buy a Gift in Action for a loved one, you can choose how they receive their gift. You can write a message and we'll print it and send it. However, you can also print it yourself or send as an e-card.
We have over 20 cards for you to choose from, from festive cards to birthday cards, thank you cards and many more.
Choose from our range of greetings card designs to suit the occasion, then personalise your choice with a special message, which will be printed on the inside of the card.
With this option, you can choose to send the card direct to the recipient, or fill in your own address and we will deliver it to you within five working days of your order (UK-based orders). Delivery is absolutely free.
E-card
When you choose an e-card, we’ll send the paper-free card of your choice direct to your recipient’s email address. You can choose from the range of designs and personalise your e-card with a special message. Then simply let us know the recipient’s email address and the day on which you’d like them to receive their e-card.
If you choose today’s date, the card will be sent within 15 minutes. If you choose another date, it will be sent just after midnight on that day.
Printable PDF
With a printable PDF, you can choose your design of choice and your message will be ready to deliver immediately.
Simply select your design, add a personal message, and after you’ve completed the checkout, your PDF will be available to download. You can then print your design straight away, and deliver it to your loved one.
No card
If you’d prefer to simply make a donation, and not to include a greetings card at all, select ‘no card’ at checkout. We won’t ask you to personalise your gift, and you can continue shopping. No card will be sent, but you will still receive an email confirmation of your purchase.
