How to send greeting cards automatically
Memory Card helps you send physical greeting cards automatically for birthdays, anniversaries and other important occasions across the UK.
You can either choose your own card and schedule it in advance, or let Memory Card choose a suitable card for you closer to the date and send you a preview before payment is taken.
It is a simple way to stay thoughtful without the last minute panic.
How Memory Card works
Memory Card lets you buy a card instantly like any other card website, but it also gives you a way to set up future card sending in advance.
That means birthdays, anniversaries and other important dates can be arranged before they creep up on you, so you do not need to remember everything yourself later.
There are two simple ways to use it, depending on whether you want to choose the card yourself or let Memory Card choose one for you.
Option 1 - Choose your own card
This option is best if you already know which design you want to send.
Simply browse the cards, pick your favourite, and schedule it for the date you want.
- Choose the card yourself
- Select the contact and occasion
- Choose the address and delivery preference
- Schedule it as a one off or recurring item
This gives you full control while still helping you stay ahead.
Option 2 - Let Memory Card choose for you
This option is ideal if you want a more hands-off experience.
Just choose the contact, occasion, date and delivery details, and Memory Card will select a suitable card for you closer to the event.
- No need to pick a card straight away
- A suitable design is chosen three weeks before the event
- You receive a preview before payment is taken
- You can swap the card if you prefer something else
It is the easiest way to stay thoughtful with minimal effort.

Watch schedule overview
What are contacts?
Contacts are the people you want to send cards to. Saving contacts makes scheduling quicker and helps keep every card personal.
You can store names and sender details, making it easier to select the right person when scheduling future items.
If you do not have all their information yet, that is completely fine. You can send a WhatsApp or email notification from Memory Card, which includes a secure link allowing them to safely add their own details.
This makes it easier to build a ready-to-use address book over time.
What are households?
Households are saved addresses that you can reuse when scheduling cards. This saves you from entering the same address each time.
You can name each household clearly, making it easy to select the right address when scheduling future items.
If you do not have the full address details yet, you can send a WhatsApp or email notification from Memory Card to the contact. This includes a secure link where they can safely provide their address details themselves.
It is a simple feature, but it makes repeat scheduling much faster.
Set it once and stay ahead
Many occasions happen every year. Memory Card helps you set them up in advance so birthdays and anniversaries do not become another thing to remember at the last minute.
Whether you like to pick every card yourself or want help with the selection, the goal is the same: making card sending easier, more consistent and far less stressful.
