Interactive birthday cards
that open like a gift
Most ecards show everything at once, and you've forgotten them by lunch. This one makes the recipient unwrap it: they tap, GIFs and confetti go off, and a gift link is sitting inside. That's what Birthdaypage builds.
What you actually get
Locked-gift opening
The card arrives wrapped. The recipient taps to open it, then the card plays.
GIFs from Giphy
Search the full Giphy library inside the editor. Pick whatever fits the moment.
Confetti and effects
Confetti fires when the card opens. Pick a colour or an emoji burst that matches the vibe.

Common questions
What makes a birthday card 'interactive'?+
Instead of a static image, the recipient taps a wrapped gift to unwrap it. The card then plays animations, shows your GIFs and message, and reveals any embedded gifts you added, like opening a real present.
How is this different from a regular ecard?+
Regular ecards show everything immediately. An interactive card has a reveal moment, so the recipient has to open it. It feels more like a gift than a notification, which is the whole point.
Does the recipient need an app?+
No. The card opens in any browser: phone, tablet, or laptop. Nothing to download, no permissions to grant.
Can I add a video instead of a GIF?+
Not yet. The editor uses Giphy for animated content, which covers most short-video moments people want. Static photos can be uploaded directly.
What devices does it work on?+
Anything with a modern browser. Tested daily on iPhone, Android, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. iPhones from 2015 onward open it fine.
