When sending a birthday card online, there is no need to run to the post office or buy stamps to send your post through traditional mail. Whether you are on the go or have some time to spare, save yourself the hassle and send an online birthday card, delivered instantly. The best part? This selection of birthday ecards is completely free. That’s right, free ecards birthday-style.
Design and send your message on desktop, mobile, or with our free iOS app. All of our online cards come with free digital tracking tools so you can ensure your virtual birthday card arrives on time and on schedule. You’ll even be able to track once the card is opened, unlike snail mail!
If you are an active planner, get a head start and create free birthday cards days, weeks, or months in advance. Then, use our schedule sending feature to guarantee they’ll arrive on time. To schedule your card to send on a future date, add your intended recipients to your mailing and then click the "Schedule Sending" button below your recipient list. Enter the date and time you'd like it to send, and click "Schedule".
If you missed your friend or loved one's birthday, don’t sweat it. Make up for lost time by sending a digital birthday card instead. Choose from one of our humorous free ecards that may just put a little laugh in your recipient’s inbox too. In our opinion, it’s never too late to let someone know you care. We recommend sending a free birthday ecard at any time, even if you may have missed the exact day.
Wish your favorite people a happy birthday with festive and free birthday ecards. Choose from dozens of birthday card designs that are sure to match your recipient’s personal style. From colorful illustrations to bold typography, browse a variety of different birthday cards that don’t compromise on style (or your budget).
Our pre-formatted templates set you up for success, but all of our sample text is fully customizable. Include your recipient’s nickname, a fond memory, or their favorite saying to personalize the card. Upload your own photo or let the design shine on its own.
While we aim to have a wide selection of customizable templates available, there is nothing we love more than an original or out-of-the-box theme. If you want to edit one of our static greetings, change the color of a card, or start a design from scratch, reach out to our Personal Design Services team for complimentary support.
If all of the balloon, cake, and confetti illustrations have you feeling inspired to throw a party, browse our birthday invitations.
After deciding on the perfect birthday ecard, let our digital tools do the rest of the work. Add your recipient’s name and email address with the help of an online address book. When you send a card through Paperless Post, all of your recipients are automatically saved into your Address Book and are organized into "Past Mailing Lists" with names that correspond with the event they were sent with. Once you are ready to send using our iOS app, our smart technology will suggest recipients that match one of your Apple contacts or Paperless Post address book contacts.
Because you have chosen a free design, there is no need to make a purchase before sending. If you are being prompted to buy Coins, make sure that you have not included any premium options such as envelopes, liners, specialty stamps, premium inserts and response cards, custom backdrops, and logos. You can visit our FAQs for more information around pricing.
