A story-like experience
Joycards work like Stories on Instagram and Facebook. Easy to follow, no video editing, and it’s all about the message!
Congratulations Card Creators
There are no backgrounds to choose, videos to edit or music to find. Create the card, invite people and watch the congratulations pile up.
Congratulations Card Recipients
Press play, sit back and watch each message one after the other. Every video is kept separately, so the proudest moments can be replayed again and again.
Features you’ll love
Good news travels fast, and a quick “congrats!” in a group chat disappears just as fast. A video congratulations card collects everyone’s excitement in one place, so the moment can be enjoyed properly and revisited later.
Ideas for a memorable congratulations card
Try a few of these ideas to make your congratulations card feel like a real celebration.
-
Name the achievement
Ask people to mention exactly what they are celebrating, whether it’s the new title, the finish line or the yes. Specific praise feels more personal.
-
Mix people from different parts of their life
For a big win, invite coworkers, old friends and family. Hearing from everyone at once shows how many people are cheering.
-
Send it while the news is fresh
Aim to send the card within a week or two of the announcement so the excitement is still in the air.

Add a look ahead
Encourage contributors to share one hope or prediction for the next chapter. It turns the card into something worth rewatching later.
