Looking for a Punkpost alternative?

Punkpost has closed and no longer takes orders. Its website now only redirects to its app. People loved it for real handwriting on paper. If you are looking for somewhere new to send a card that feels personal, here is what it did well and what to use instead.

3 letters a month free. No card details, no trial to cancel.

The short version

If you miss Punkpost…

Look for another handwriting service that still mails real paper cards, and allow a few days for delivery.

Try GreetSpark if…

You want something handwritten-feeling that arrives today, anywhere, in your own voice, with one of 60 handwriting styles and three letters a month free.

What it cost, and what we cost

A paper card is paid per card, then the mail decides when it lands. A letter is paid for when you send it, and arrives the same minute.

What Punkpost did best

Real pen-on-paper handwriting by a team of artists, on cards designed only for Punkpost. People loved it when the card itself was the gift.

What GreetSpark does differently

The things a typed e-card or a card in the mail cannot do. Every one of them is in the product today.

It tears open on their phone

The envelope tears and the letter rises out. No app to install, and they never make an account.

Written in your handwriting

60 handwriting styles, so it reads like a letter from you rather than a typed e-card.

Your voice, not a font

Record a voice note of up to 60 seconds. It plays inside the letter.

A song for it

One of 101 original soundtracks, none of which trigger copyright claims when shared.

You know when it lands

An email the moment they open it, and how many times they come back to it.

6 a.m. their time

Write it today and schedule it up to a year ahead, to arrive at breakfast wherever they are.

Send one free and see the difference

3 letters a month are free. No app, no card details, and you are told when it is opened.

Does the person I send it to need an app or an account?

No. It arrives as a link and opens in any phone or computer browser. They never sign up.
