E-Card Product

The E-Card product allows you to prompt your members to sponsor e-cards sent from your community to anyone, via email (typically non-members). Members will specify the people to whom they want to send their e-card along with their message and the admin will send out all the e-cards in bulk at the end of the campaign.

To avoid confusion, it’s important to clarify the difference between the E-Card product and emailing your Final Letters. Emailing your Final Letters is a digital method for delivering them to members, eliminating the need for physical delivery. The E-Card product, however, is an optional service that enables members to send greetings to people who aren’t on your member list. If you're interested in sending your Final Letters by email go to the article on Final Letters.

Note: E-cards need to be sent by the admin. They are not sent automatically since the admin will control the timing and the look-and-feel of the cards.

Customizing and Enabling your E-card Product

  1. Under Campaign Settings you'll find a Products tab with several types of products to choose from, one of which is E-Cards
  2. Specify the charge for your e-card and the prompt for the members
  3. Confirm that the E-card is active


Sending your E-cards

  1. At the end of your campaign you'll need to customize your E-card and send them to the recipients.
  2. Under the Emails menu item, select E-Card
  3. Add whatever graphic and text you want (e.g. "Temple Shalom is happy to share the following E-Card sponsored in your name") along with an Email subject
  4. Be sure to include the ecard_greeting macro in your email which will merge-in the members' greetings
  5. Select recipients and Send
