- How Do I Create an eCard?
Creating an eCard with Power eCard is easy. Choose a pre-designed eCard from our library and customize it with just a few clicks. Alternatively, start with a blank eCard format and add your own graphics, videos, and more.
Once your eCard is set up, specify the language and title for your card version. Customize the greeting and message to suit your recipients, and effortlessly incorporate corporate identity elements like signatures or logos using our live editor.
eCard Design
- Can I Use My Own Design?
Absolutely! In addition to designs from our eCard librabry and custom design services, you can upload your own images (e.g., cover, inside, background) and even videos (e.g., for cover or background). Explore detailed explanations and examples of these three options on this page.
- Can I Place My Company Logo on the eCard?
Absolutely! Customize your eCard entirely to reflect your brand, including integrating your company logo seamlessly.
- Can I use my personal signature?
At Power eCard, you have several options for incorporating your own signature into the eCard. You can also integrate multiple signatures into a single card, such as those of all your team members. Here’s a detailed guide to help you get started.
Personalizations
- Do all my recipients receive personalized messages?
By uploading your contact list, our system accesses individual details such as title, first name, last name, or other custom fields for each recipient. Using markers within the eCard or email text, our system automatically inserts the desired personal information at each designated point.
- Can I send eCards in multiple languages?
Absolutely! You can create cards in any number of languages and distribute them globally. Please note: The Power eCard user interface is available in both German and English.
eCard Mailing
- Can I also send the eCard from my own email system?
Typically, eCards are sent entirely through your dedicated Power eCard system. However, there is an option to generate a single eCard link and send it directly to your contacts. Please note: Automatic personalization (individual addressing) is not available in this method.
- Can I share my eCard on social media?
Yes, after designing your eCard to your liking, you can easily generate a link and share it. Anyone who accesses the link can view your eCard. Please note, however, that automatic personalization (individual addressing) is not possible this way. For example, for a shared holiday card, a general greeting like 'Dear colleagues' or similar would be suitable.
- What email address will my recipients see as the sender?
By default, our system uses a Power eCard-generated address. However, you can also opt to use your company's own email address starting from the Small Business license level. This option requires a few adjustments in your hosting provider's DNS settings. For detailed instructions, please refer to this guide.
- How do I send an eCard?
You effortlessly import your recipients via CSV into your customized Power eCard address book or add them individually. During import or creation, you can organize recipients into groups based on language or salutation. Initiate the mailing process by selecting the desired eCard and recipients or recipient group, and customize the greeting text within the card. Finally, send the card immediately or schedule it for automatic delivery on a chosen date.
Pricing and Packages
- What are the costs associated with Power eCard?
Power eCard operates on a licensing system divided into annual and one-time licenses, catering to varying needs such as the number of required cards and users/senders, alongside different feature sets. Annual licenses span 12 months, while one-time licenses expire after 90 days. Once you select your model, you can choose from five packages tailored to different company sizes. For instance, a Freelance annual license costs €396 per year (€33 per month), offering 1000 eCards and one user. A one-time license for three months, ideal for seasonal needs like Christmas, includes 300 eCards and one user, allowing the card quota to be used throughout the license period (fee: €249). More details on other packages and pricing models can be found here."
- How can I pay for Power eCard?
Typically, you can settle your Power eCard payments via credit card or invoice. If you prefer alternative payment methods, feel free to contact us at info@power-ecard.de.
- What is the Difference Between an Annual License and a One-Time License?
A one-time license lasts for 90 days and is ideal for a single mailing, such as Christmas cards or an event invitation. If you have multiple occasions for sending eCards (e.g., birthday cards, event invitations, and Christmas cards) or need more time to prepare a mailing, we recommend our annual license. This license is valid for one year and allows you to distribute your quota flexibly throughout the year.
