The first day at a new job is full of new faces, names and passwords. A welcome card from the team says: we are happy you are here, and we will help you find the coffee machine.
Warm welcome messages
- “Welcome to the team! We are so happy you are here.”
- “Great to have you with us. Ask anything, anytime.”
- “Welcome! We are looking forward to working with you.”
Funny
- “Welcome! The coffee is bad, but the people are good.”
- “Do not worry about the passwords. We will reset them at least five times.”
Practical and kind
- “Lunch is at 12. Come and sit with us.”
- “Here are three people to ask about everything: Eva, Tom and Sara.”
Have the card ready on day one

Frequently asked questions about the welcome card
What does it cost to send a welcome card digitally?
Starting is free: up to 7 people, one photo each, the free designs and a small watermark. For € 4.95 per card you get 20 people, two photos each, all designs, the slideshow and a PDF; for € 7.50 unlimited people and three photos. You pay once per card, never a subscription.
How long does it take to make the card?
About two minutes for the organiser. Everybody else opens the link, types a message and adds a photo.
Do the people who write need an account?
No. They open the link and write. Only the person who makes the card can choose to have an account.
When does the card arrive?
On the day and time you choose, by e-mail. The day before, the organiser gets a preview.
