Why a group welcome card makes onboarding better

🧠

Reduces First-Day Anxiety

New hires often spend their first week worrying about fitting in. A card from the team — received before they even start — replaces that anxiety with belonging.

Faster Ramping

Employees who feel welcomed are quicker to ask questions, raise ideas, and contribute. A warm start pays off in productivity — often within the first month.

🏆

Sets Your Culture Apart

Most companies hand new hires a laptop and a Confluence link. A heartfelt group welcome card shows you actually care — and that stands out.

How it works

1

Create the card

Give it a title like "Welcome to the team, Alex!" and pick a theme. Takes 30 seconds. No account needed.

2

Invite the team

Share the link in Slack, email, or Teams. Everyone adds their message, a photo, or a GIF — at their own pace, from any device.

3

Deliver on day one

Share the delivery link with your new hire — via email, Slack, or even printed out at their desk. They see every message in a beautiful layout.

Perfect for every kind of new hire

💻

Remote & Hybrid Hires

Remote onboarding can feel cold and transactional. A group eCard gives distributed teams a way to show up together — even when everyone is in a different time zone. It's often the first human moment of the entire onboarding process.

🏢

In-Person Starters

Walking into an office on day one is nerve-wracking. Imagine arriving to find a card with messages from everyone already waiting. It tells your new hire the team has been thinking about them — and that kind of warmth sets a tone that lasts.

🎓

Interns & Graduates

First-time employees are the most anxious and the most impressionable. A warm group welcome at the start of an internship or grad role creates loyalty that money can't buy — and often turns interns into long-term hires.

🔄

Internal Transfers

Moving teams or offices within a company is its own kind of new start. A welcome card from the new team acknowledges the transition and fast-tracks the feeling of belonging in a new environment.

What to write

Not sure what to say? Here are some messages that hit the right note.

Warm & welcoming

"Welcome to the team! We've been looking forward to having you here. Don't hesitate to reach out — we're a friendly bunch and there are no silly questions."

"So glad you're joining us! We've heard great things and can't wait to start working with you. Hope your first week is everything you hoped for."

Casual & fun

"Welcome! Fair warning: we're obsessed with [team thing]. You'll understand by week two. So excited to have you!"

"Hey! I sit nearby (or a Slack DM away). Happy to show you the ropes — coffee machine quirks included. Welcome aboard!"

From a manager

"Welcome! We hired you for a reason and we're excited to see what you bring. My door is always open — ask anything, anytime."

"The team has been looking forward to this. We've got exciting things ahead and I'm really glad you're part of it now. Let's build something great."
