Employee birthday card FAQs

Best for HR teams, office managers and team organisers coordinating workplace birthdays across office-based, hybrid or remote teams.

  1. 1

    What is an employee birthday card?

    An employee birthday card is an online group card created for a colleague. One organiser shares a private signing link so the team can add personal messages and media before the card is delivered.

  2. 2

    Do colleagues need an account to sign?

    No. Anyone with the private signing link can contribute from a browser without registering for an account. The same link can be shared by email, Slack or another team channel, so office-based and remote colleagues can sign the same card.

  3. 3

    What can the team add to a birthday card?

    Colleagues can add written or handwritten messages, photos, GIFs and in-browser video recordings. Extra pages provide space as more people contribute, allowing a small team or a much wider group to take part in the same card.

  4. 4

    Can I schedule an employee birthday card in advance?

    Yes. Choose a future delivery date while creating the card and continue collecting signatures until it is ready. Happy Tree Cards can send it on the selected day, or the organiser can deliver it manually when the celebration begins.

  5. 5

    Can HR teams manage several employee birthdays?

    Yes. Organisation plans provide a shared celebration planner, member roles, central billing, shared credits and custom covers for teams running birthdays throughout the year. A single card or bundle remains available when only one organiser needs to coordinate occasional celebrations.

  6. 6

    Do I need an organisation plan?

    No. You can buy one birthday card or a small bundle without a subscription. Organisation plans are designed for recurring employee celebrations that need shared planning and controls.
