Follow Personalized note cards (a customized gift message in your order)

Personalized note cards are a great way to add a nice touch to your orders within Drop Ship, Giveaway, and Collections campaigns.  

Printfection now lets you print high-quality, personalized note cards with customized gift messages. 

Personalized note cards cost $0.50 per each individual order, so if you place 50 orders with gift messaging, your total cost for the gift cards will be $25.

What does a personalized note card look like? 

The front of the card will feature black ink text, in a font that appears handwritten, against a white background. 

The back of the card can be branded with your company name or your logo or image of choice (including a QR code). We support color printing on the back of the note card. See our art and logo guidelines below.

Art and logo recommendations

The cards are white, both front and back, so we recommend full color art. See the reference below and you can download our Sketch template below!

You can edit the back of your card from the Settings page of your campaign.

How to add a personalized note card to an order

Adding a note card is simple.

When you are satisfied with your message, click Update then save you order.

Make sure to always hit 'Save Delivery Information' in Drop Ship orders, and 'Save Order' in Collections once you've edited your gift message! 

For Giveaways, since your recipients enter their own information, you can create a template-based message that will pull in the variables they entered.

To use a variable, just type it out as shown above using double brackets. When done correctly, the variable will become highlighted. 

Please note, the [[last name]] variable will be empty if someone chooses not to enter a last name when they redeem a Giveaway. 

Also, if the user chooses not a submit a company name, the [[companyname]] variable will be replaced with 'your company', in lower case

If you do NOT want to include a personalized note card, simply leave this field blank on your campaign's settings page. 

How this changes gift messaging

In the past, you could include a gift message to appear directly on the packing slip. However, this option has been depreciated and is no longer available in favor of note cards.
