Did you check and re-check the email address you used for your recipient on your card? Ninety-nine percent of all cards that do not reach their recipients are due to mistyped email addresses. Our network sees hundreds of bounced mails to @oal.com, @ol.com, @hotamil.com, @pordigy.com, @yhaoo.com and @msn.vom, etc. Other reasons include:

1. Recipient's mail server could be down. It happens with all from time to time.
2. Recipient uses an e-mail account with storage limit, and at the time you sent your card had a full mailbox. It happens often on AOL, WebTV network, Hotmail, as well as other various free mail services.

Storing email addresses in your address book is a great way to avoid mistyping email addresses. Also, we recommend that you always send a copy of the card to yourself, so that in the event your recipient(s) do not receive it, you can give them the Card ID number and they can enter it into the pickup window.

Back to Questions


Most likely, you left the box, "Send Me a Copy" checked, and the card was not only mailed to your recipient(s), but to you as well. The copy of the card and email you receive will be addressed to you, and will not state that it is a copy. Don't panic -- check with your recipient(s) to see that she got the card; more than likely, she did.

Please be aware that this is not intentional -- we have no intentions of ignoring ethnic minorities -- in fact we stand very strongly by the "celebrate diversity" motto. Quite simply, we haven't been able to locate enough quality images that feature African American women or other minorities. We are constantly looking for quality art work to feature on the site, however in our efforts to find art work, we've not been very successful in locating a lot of work that features women of ethnic minorities. If you know of any art work that does, please do not hesitate to contact us!

Yes, She Cards used to offer free electronic greeting. After much planning and decision making, however, Neon Carrot Productions, the parent company of She Cards, concluded that it could not sustain the level of quality and regular enhancement that our users deserve without building in a means of additional revenue to sustain such enhancements and level of quality. As such, She Cards became a paid subscription site, and no longer offers free electronic greetings.
