Important Notes

  • Gift messages are only available for eligible items.

  • Messages are printed and included by Amazon, not the seller.

  • Gift messages cannot be added or edited after checkout.


An Amazon gift message looks like a simple, computer-printed note on a plain card or the packing slip, featuring your personalized text in a clean sans-serif font, often without much branding, appearing either tucked in or within a "Don't spoil the surprise" envelope if gift-wrapped. 

Physical Gift Message
  • Appearance: A small card (around 3.5x5 inches) or the packing slip itself.
  • Design: Minimalist, with your message in black ink, centered, using a simple font like Arial.
  • Packaging: If gift-wrapped, the message card is in a special envelope marked "Don't spoil the surprise". If not wrapped, it's usually just on the packing slip.
  • Content: Includes your custom text and the recipient's name/address (from the shipping label) on the slip, with prices hidden.

Digital/eGift Message
  • Delivery: Sent via email to the recipient.
  • Content: A digital message you compose, often with options for themes or designs, letting the recipient "unwrap" it digitally or provide their address.
