Most cards come with a date: a birthday, a leaving, a new baby. A card on an ordinary Tuesday says something else: I thought of you.
Who to send it to
- A friend you have not seen for a while
- A colleague who always helps
- Someone who had a busy or difficult month
- A neighbour, a teacher, a volunteer
What to write
- “No reason. I just wanted you to know I am thinking of you.”
- “Thank you for being you.”
- “Saw this and thought of you.”
- “Hope your week is a good one.”
Keep it light
No obligations, no plans, no pressure to answer. A just because card is a small gift that asks for nothing.
Make it a group surprise
The most memorable surprises are the unexpected ones: a team that sends a card to a colleague for no reason at all. It costs a few minutes and gives them a day they will remember.
Surprise someone

Frequently asked questions about the just because card
What does it cost to send a just because 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.
