Quick answer
A digital gift message is the easiest way to add a note to your order, while a handwritten note card offers a more personal, thoughtful touch. Your choice depends on whether you value convenience or a handmade feel.
Convenience vs. personal touch
A digital gift message is added at checkout with a few clicks. It saves time and ensures your note is included without extra effort. A handwritten note card requires you to write it yourself, but that personal effort often means more to the recipient.
Cost and presentation
The Gift Message add-on costs $2.19, making it a budget-friendly option. A note card may cost more if you buy a separate set, but it can be reused and offers a more classic presentation. Consider how much you want to spend on the note itself.
Trade-offs at a glance
- Gift Message: Add a digital note at checkout. You type the message and it is included with the order. No extra steps or materials needed.
- Handwritten Note Card: Write a personal message on a separate card and include it with the gift. Requires your own card, pen, and time.
- Which one to choose?: If speed and simplicity matter most, go with the Gift Message. If you want a more personal, tactile connection, a handwritten note card is worth the extra effort. Think about the recipient and how much you value the personal touch.
