Nice-to-Have Features

How Signed Together Scores

Signed Together's free plan covers unlimited signers, photos and GIFs, a 30-minute window for contributors to edit their own message, and free delivery. Contributors and the recipient never need an account; the organizer verifies an email to create the card. The one-time Premium upgrade adds a high-resolution JPG poster and a print-ready PDF booklet, scheduled delivery, custom backgrounds, animated effects, and removes the small footer badge. No subscription. No per-signer fees. No recipient login ever.
