Two Ways to Order

Mail it to them

We print your card and mail it directly to the recipient — you enter their address at checkout. It typically arrives in about 2–7 days in the US and 3–9 days in Canada.

Keep a copy for yourself

The printed card and a blank envelope are mailed to you — hand it over in person or mail it yourself, on your own schedule.

The QR Code on the Back

By default, the back of the printed card carries a small QR code. The paper card is the keepsake; the QR opens the digital card — photos, video, and letters the paper can't hold.

Prefer a clean back? You can switch the QR code off during ordering, and the back will carry a small eCards Photos mark instead.

The digital card stays online. Printed cards keep their digital companion live for the life of eCards Photos — they never expire like regular free cards. And the downloaded card file is yours forever, offline.

Who Can Order

Print ordering is available to:

Any signed-in account holder — guests can create cards, but printing needs an account

For cards they created — you can only order prints of your own cards

While the card is active — order any time before the card expires

Video cards and sealed (private-encrypted) cards can't be printed — there's no printable cover for video, and sealed cards are encrypted end-to-end so our print partner can never see them.

How to Order

1

Find the print option on the card-created screen, on your card's page, or in the dashboard menu for the card.

2

Choose Mail it to them or Keep a copy for yourself, and pick the destination country (US or Canada).

3

Decide whether the back carries the QR code to the digital card.

4

Check out securely with Stripe — you'll enter the shipping address there.

Orders can't be cancelled once they've gone to print — and they go to print quickly after checkout. Delivery estimates aren't guaranteed — if the card is for a birthday or another fixed date, order early.

Prices are shown at checkout. Premium members get member pricing on every print.

Frequently Asked Questions

When will it arrive?
About 2–7 days in the US and 3–9 days in Canada. Estimates aren't guaranteed, so allow extra time around major holidays.
Can I cancel a print order?
No — orders can't be cancelled or changed once they've gone to print. Double-check the address and preview before you pay.
What if it arrives damaged?
Email support@ecardsphotos.com and we'll reprint it or refund you. A photo of the problem helps us sort it out faster.
Which cards can be printed?
Any active card you created, except video and sealed cards. Sealed cards are encrypted end-to-end, so our print partner could never render them.
Does the digital card expire after I print it?
No — it stays online for the life of eCards Photos. Printing is the one thing that lifts a card's normal expiry date.

Arrived damaged, misprinted, or lost in the mail? Email us at support@ecardsphotos.com and we'll make it right.
