Birthday

A birthday card your grandson will open like a game, not homework

Giftable lets grandparents build a free interactive birthday card for a grandson - photos as swipeable slides and a scratch-off surprise he rubs to reveal - and send the full card for €3, one-time. Nothing to install: he taps the link, it opens in his browser, and he can send back a 30-second video reply.

Try it - scratch me

Happy 30, Mira!

What to write in a birthday card for your grandson

Happy birthday, champ. I've known you since before you could hold a spoon, and now you're taller than me. Stop that. Also: I'm so proud of you.

To my grandson: half these photos are you covered in mud, cake, or both. You've always known how to enjoy a day. Happy birthday - enjoy this one hardest.

Happy birthday from your grandpa. There's a surprise under the scratch-off at the end. I'd have hidden money in there if the internet allowed it - check with your mother.

01

Pick photos and an occasion

Choose the occasion, add your favorite photos, and write your message. No account needed to start.

02

Add a scratch-off surprise

Hide a photo or a message under a foil layer they rub away with a finger - the moment feels like unwrapping a gift.

Send it by WhatsApp, iMessage, or email. It opens in any browser - no app to install - and they can answer with a 30-second video reply.

Frequently asked questions

My grandson only responds to games - will a card hold his attention?

This one plays more than it reads: he swipes through photo slides, then scratches a foil layer off the last one with his finger to reveal the surprise. It lands somewhere between a card and a mini-game.

What does it cost to send?

Building is free, and a 1-slide card sends free. The full card with all the photos and the scratch-off is €3, one-time. No subscription.

Can I put an actual gift inside?

Yes - attach a hidden gift behind a password: a gift-card code, a photo of the bike in the garage, whatever seals the deal. He unlocks it at the end of the card.
