Questions & answers

GiftQuest is an online service for personal digital greetings and Advent calendars. You write a card that writes itself in fountain-pen handwriting when opened, add photos, your signature and, if you like, a scratch-off surprise – and send it by link, WhatsApp or as a QR tag on the real gift.

No. You create without signing up and get a personal edit link. If you like, add an email address – we will send you the link and let you know when someone says thank you.

Yes. GiftQuest is designed for smartphones and runs in the browser – on tablets and computers too. Neither you nor the recipient needs an app.

A card with one photo is free. The Gift Moment costs €3.99 per card and adds the scratch-off surprise, up to three photos, a printable QR tag and folded card, and email delivery at the time you choose. An Advent calendar costs €7.99 once. All prices include VAT, no subscription.

Securely via Stripe – by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and other methods. Your confirmation with order number, terms and withdrawal information arrives by email.

Yes, within 14 days – most easily via “Withdraw from contract” in the footer of every page. Details are in the withdrawal policy.

Send the link by WhatsApp, messenger or email – or print the QR tag and attach it to the gift. With the Gift Moment, GiftQuest can also deliver the card by email at a time you choose.

You hide a message under a scratch panel – a voucher, tickets or big news. The recipient scratches it free with a finger. Voucher codes can then be copied with one tap.

Yes. Put the voucher code under the scratch panel or attach the voucher or ticket as an image or PDF. After scratching, the recipient can view and download it. GiftQuest does not sell vouchers – it wraps them personally.

Yes. Your overview shows when the greeting was opened and the surprise scratched free – and whether the recipient said thank you.

Choose an illustrated motif and fill 24 doors with texts, photos, vouchers or links. The recipient opens one door a day, never before its date. As a puzzle calendar, a picture made from your own photo comes together piece by piece.

Yes. With the join link, family and friends fill their own doors – no account needed. Everyone else’s content stays secret.

Doors whose day is still to come, at any time. An empty door can even be filled on its own day; a filled one can be corrected as long as it has not been opened.

Free greetings for 6 months after publishing, with the Gift Moment for 12 months from purchase. Advent calendars until the end of February after Advent. Then we delete them automatically – including all photos.

Only people who know the private link. Greetings and calendars are not indexed by search engines. The surprise only loads after opening.

We only store what your greeting needs, on servers in the EU. No ads, no tracking without your consent. Everything else is in the privacy policy.
