What do you write in a work holiday card?

Keep it warm, brief and non-denominational — thank them for the year, wish them a real break. Avoid assuming which holiday someone celebrates.

Can I send one holiday card to the whole team?

Yes. Choose “Send it to a list” when you make it, write one message, and up to 25 people each get their own copy at their own email with their name on it. If you want everyone’s messages on it instead, make one card for the team lead and invite the team to sign. Both are free.

Will it arrive at the right time across timezones?

Yes. Delivery is scheduled in the recipient’s timezone, so a colleague in Sydney is not woken at 3am by a card from Lisbon.

Group holiday cards for teams

The end-of-year card is the one most likely to become a mass email nobody reads. A card everyone signs is a different object: it is short, it is personal, and it takes one person an afternoon rather than thirty people five minutes each.

How it works

1
Pick a design and write the first message

No account needed to start — you compose first and only give an email when you save the card.
2
Invite the team by email

Everyone gets their own private invite link. Nothing to forward around Slack, and you can see who has signed.
3
It delivers itself on the day

Sealed until the delivery date, then it opens in the timezone you set for them — not yours.

What to write

Happy holidays! Hope you get a proper break.
Wishing you a restful end to the year — you've earned it.
Season’s greetings. Thanks for everything this year.
Happy holidays from all of us. Enjoy the time off.
Have a lovely break. See you on the other side.

Keep it non-specific about which holiday

A work card goes to people who mark the season differently or not at all. "Happy holidays" and "enjoy the break" include everyone; assuming the holiday does not.

Send it before people leave

Schedule it for the last working week, not the 24th, when it will sit unread in a closed inbox until January.

One card per team beats one per person

Thirty individual cards is a chore that gets abandoned halfway. One card with thirty signatures is the thing people screenshot.

Why teams use TeamRally Cards

Free to make, sign and send. Invite up to 100 people, with no per-signer fee, premium designs or charge to deliver.
Personal email invites. Every signer gets their own link, so there is no shared URL for the recipient to stumble across.
Sealed until the day. The recipient's link refuses to open before delivery, so a leaked link doesn't spoil the surprise.
No accounts for signers. They click their invite and write. No sign-up, no password, no app.
