Appreciation quickly gets lost in the daily rush.
A congratulations in the team chat, a standard email from HR on a work anniversary. Well meant, but scrolled past within a minute. Employees who don’t feel truly seen leave sooner.
- A work anniversary goes by with an emoji in the chat.
- A first day at work is mostly paperwork.
- Whoever’s in charge of it forgets during a busy week.
- A card on the doormat at home, at the moment it matters.
A handwritten card gets a different kind of attention.
A card isn’t buried among twenty notifications. It lands on the doormat, gets picked up and often stays around for a while. And because Lightr really writes it on paper with a real pen, it doesn’t come across as yet another automated marketing message.
That way, appreciation becomes something that stays on the desk, rather than a message in the team chat.
Mark the moments that matter to employees.

See all FAQs
Can every recipient get a different text?
Yes. Every card can have its own text, not just a different first name. You add the text for each recipient through your list or integration.
Can I use my own handwriting?
Yes. Having your own handwriting digitised is a one-off €100 if it’s also made available to other users, or €400 if it’s for your use only, excluding VAT. You’ll then receive the writing files by email.
How do I send you my addresses?
Add recipients one by one or upload your own CSV or Excel file as it is. The mapping tool lets you match the columns to the right fields.
What happens to my customers’ data?
The data is stored in the Netherlands. You set the retention period yourself, with a minimum of twenty days. After that, personal data is anonymised. Want to change the retention period? Just get in touch.
What is the minimum number of cards I need to send?
You can start with a single card. Activating an account is free and needs no credit card; you pay per mailing.
How quickly does the card arrive?
Orders of fewer than 2,500 cards are dispatched within two to three working days and delivered by post within seven days of purchase. For larger quantities, you’ll see the current schedule in the platform.
