Frequently asked questions
Q: What happens once I’ve sent my ecard?
A: Once you have donated you will be sent a link to your unique “Send an ecard” page. Your card will be sent directly to the recipient. This will usually be straight away, but during busy periods there may be a delay of up to an hour. You’ll see a preview of your ecard before sending it, but if you would like to receive a copy of the actual ecard too, we suggest copying yourself in as a recipient.
Q: I’ve made my donation but didn’t receive my URL to send my cards, how can I get it?
A: Please contact Dontsendmeacard directly and they will be able to retrieve the details of your ecard.
Q: I can’t complete my payment via credit card as PayPal wants me to sign in.
A: PayPal will encourage you to login if you have currently or previously linked the card you are using to an account. You can choose to make a one-off donation without setting up an account, but if you do have an active PayPal account we advise logging in and making your donation using that instead.
Q: I made my donation and want to go back to send more e-cards, how can I do that?
A: After you have made your donation you'll receive an automatic email from DontSendMeACard which contains a link stating “Click to send up to 100 e-cards.” Click on that link and you can send more ecards.
Q: Do you have any other ecard designs?
A: We will be continually adding more ecard designs over time, so keep an eye out for any new ones to send to your friends and family.
Q: I’m a business, can I still send ecards?
A: You will currently be able to send up to 100 ecards through Dontsendmeacard. We are also looking into the possibility of adding in functionality specifically for businesses to send higher volumes of ecards.
Q: Why do I have to pay to send an ecard?
A: To improve the usability and reliability of our ecards system, we have partnered with Dontsendmeacard. Dontsendmeacard and Paypal are both paid by taking a proportion of each donation. We have therefore set a minimum donation of £1, which we ask supporters to donate in lieu of the amount usually spent on a physical card.
Q: How much of my donation goes to Friends of the Earth?
A: Friends of the Earth receive 89p out of every £1 donation made for an ecard.

If you opt out, we will not receive your data.
