Custom Printed Thank You Cards

Custom Printed Thank You Cards for E-Commerce, Retail & Gift Brands

Custom printed thank you cards give e-commerce, retail and gift brands a direct way to communicate with customers inside the order while extending the brand experience beyond the outer packaging.

Also searched as branded thank you cards, thank you cards with logo, custom packaging insert cards, e-commerce thank you cards or order insert cards, these printed cards can carry a simple thank-you message, brand information, social details, repeat-purchase messaging or other customer-facing content.

Packonic's current Thank You Card product starts from 250 pieces and is available in A7, A6 and A5 formats, with 300 GSM and 350 GSM Uncoated Paper and Digital Printing.

What Are Custom Printed Thank You Cards?

Custom printed thank you cards are branded cards placed inside retail or e-commerce orders to communicate directly with the customer after purchase.

Unlike a hang tag, which remains attached to the product, or a sticker, which is applied to packaging, a thank-you card is a separate printed insert designed primarily for customer communication.

It can be used to:

• thank the customer for their order,
• reinforce the brand identity,
• introduce the business or brand story,
• encourage a repeat purchase,
• share social media details,
• display a QR code,
• support a campaign or product launch,
• or add a more personal element to the unboxing experience.

Can Thank You Cards Be Printed With a Logo?

Yes. Thank you cards can be custom printed with a logo, brand colours, typography and other artwork, allowing the card to become part of the wider packaging identity.

A branded thank-you card can include:

• company or brand logo,
• a short thank-you message,
• website address,
• social media information,
• QR codes,
• customer-service details,
• repeat-order messaging,
• or seasonal and campaign artwork.

The strongest designs normally keep the thank-you message easy to understand while giving the logo enough visual space to remain immediately recognisable.

Thank You Card or Packaging Insert Card: What Is the Difference?

The terms often overlap, but the emphasis can be different.

Thank You Card

A thank you card is primarily customer-facing. Its main purpose is to acknowledge the purchase and strengthen the relationship between the customer and the brand.

Packaging Insert Card

A packaging insert card is a broader term that can include thank-you messaging, promotional information, instructions, campaign content or other printed communication placed inside an order.

For many e-commerce brands, the same card can perform both roles: it can thank the customer while also providing a QR code, social link or repeat-purchase message.

Which Thank You Card Size Should You Choose?

Packonic's verified Thank You Card range includes three standard dimensions:

• 74 × 105 mm – A7
• 105 × 148 mm – A6
• 148 × 210 mm – A5

The right size depends on how much information the card needs to carry and how it fits inside the wider packaging.

A7 Thank You Cards – 74 × 105 mm

A7 thank you cards provide the most compact format in the current verified range.

This size can work particularly well when:

• a short thank-you message is enough,
• the packaging itself is small,
• the card needs to fit inside compact e-commerce orders,
• or the design is primarily logo-led.

A6 Thank You Cards – 105 × 148 mm

A6 thank you cards provide more space for branding and customer communication without becoming excessively large for most parcel formats.

A6 can be a useful middle-ground for:

• e-commerce orders,
• fashion and beauty brands,
• gift businesses,
• small retail products,
• and brands combining a thank-you message with a QR code or social information.

A5 Thank You Cards – 148 × 210 mm

A5 thank you cards provide the largest verified format and give considerably more room for artwork, customer messaging or campaign content.

This can be useful where:

• brand storytelling requires more space,
• several pieces of information need to appear together,
• the order itself is relatively large,
• or the card is intended to form a prominent part of the unboxing experience.

The largest card is not automatically the strongest option. The card should remain proportional to the box, bag or parcel it is placed inside.

A7, A6 or A5: Which Is Best for E-Commerce?

For most e-commerce businesses, the best size depends on how much the card needs to communicate.

• A7: best for short messages and compact packaging.
• A6: balanced option for branding, thank-you text and a small amount of additional information.
• A5: better when artwork, brand story or campaign content needs considerably more space.

A business sending jewellery or small accessories may prefer A7, while a fashion or gift brand using larger mailer boxes may have enough room for A6 or A5.

300 GSM or 350 GSM Thank You Cards?

The current Packonic Thank You Card product offers 300 GSM and 350 GSM paper options.

GSM describes the weight and thickness of the paper stock. Both are card-weight formats, but the 350 GSM option provides a heavier feel than 300 GSM.

Choose 300 GSM When:

• a substantial card is required without choosing the heaviest available option,
• the insert will be used across high-volume e-commerce orders,
• or the card needs to remain relatively light inside the parcel.

Choose 350 GSM When:

• a heavier card feel is preferred,
• the insert forms a more prominent part of the unboxing presentation,
• or the brand wants the card itself to feel more substantial.

The difference should be considered alongside card size. A large A5 card and a compact A7 card can create different handling and presentation even when the same GSM is selected.

What Material Are Packonic Thank You Cards Made From?

The verified Packonic Thank You Card product uses Uncoated Paper.

An uncoated paper surface creates a different visual and tactile result from heavily coated or glossy cards and can work well for retail and e-commerce brands looking for a clean printed-card presentation.

The material should still be evaluated together with:

• card size,
• 300 or 350 GSM weight,
• artwork,
• brand colours,
• and how the card will appear beside the rest of the packaging.

How Are Custom Thank You Cards Printed?

Packonic's verified Thank You Card product uses Digital Printing.

When designing a custom card, businesses should consider:

• logo size and placement,
• text readability,
• brand colour consistency,
• the balance between white space and printed content,
• QR code size where used,
• and how the card looks alongside tissue paper, stickers or the outer packaging.

A thank-you card normally works best when the primary message can be understood immediately without requiring the customer to search through dense text.

What Should You Put on an E-Commerce Thank You Card?

An e-commerce thank you card should have a clear purpose rather than trying to fit every marketing message onto one insert.

A useful content hierarchy can be:

• First: thank the customer.
• Second: reinforce the brand name or logo.
• Third: provide one useful next action, such as visiting the website, following social channels or scanning a QR code.

Additional messaging may include a repeat-purchase message or customer-service information where it adds real value.

The strongest card is not necessarily the one with the most text. Clear hierarchy usually creates a better customer experience.

Thank You Cards for E-Commerce Orders

Custom thank you cards for e-commerce can help connect the online purchase with the physical parcel the customer receives.

The website experience ends at checkout, but the physical brand experience continues when the order arrives.

A thank-you card can sit:

• on top of the wrapped product,
• under the box lid,
• inside tissue paper,
• beside the product,
• or in another visible position within the package.

The placement should make the card easy to notice without creating unnecessary packaging layers.

Thank You Cards for Small Businesses & Growing Brands

Small and growing businesses can use branded cards to create a more complete order experience without redesigning every packaging component.

For example, a business using a simple outer box can add:

• custom tissue paper,
• a branded sticker,
• and a printed thank-you card.

This can create a coordinated branded presentation while allowing the outer transport packaging to remain relatively simple.

Thank You Cards for Retail & Boutique Brands

Thank-you cards are not limited to online orders.

Retail and boutique businesses can include them inside:

• shopping bags,
• gift purchases,
• premium retail orders,
• seasonal collections,
• or customer gift packages.

In physical retail, the card can reinforce the relationship with the customer after they leave the store.

Thank You Cards for Gift Packaging

Gift brands can use custom printed thank you cards as part of the presentation without confusing them with greeting cards intended to be written by the buyer.

The branded thank-you card belongs to the business and can communicate:

• appreciation for the purchase,
• the brand identity,
• carefully selected visual artwork,
• or a short message supporting the gift experience.

It can be combined with tissue paper, stickers and a branded outer package to create a more complete presentation.

Thank You Card or Hang Tag: Which Should You Use?

Thank-you cards and hang tags perform different jobs.

Choose a Thank You Card When:

• the message is directed to the customer,
• the card should sit separately inside the order,
• you want to include a thank-you message or next action,
• or the communication relates to the overall purchase rather than one specific product.

Choose a Hang Tag When:

• the branding needs to stay attached to the product,
• information relates to one specific item,
• the tag should remain visible in retail display,
• or product-level branding is the priority.

For product-level tags, explore Custom Printed Hang Tags.

Thank You Cards or Stickers: Which Is Better?

The two formats are complementary rather than interchangeable.

A thank-you card provides more space for customer communication and can be removed, kept or read separately from the package.

A Custom Sticker or Label is adhesive and is better suited to sealing tissue paper, adding a logo to packaging or branding a specific surface.

A common e-commerce setup uses both: a sticker closes the tissue paper while the thank-you card sits inside as the customer-facing message.

Thank You Cards & Custom Printed Tissue Paper

Custom Printed Tissue Paper can create the first branded layer around the product, while a thank-you card adds direct customer communication.

Together they can create a simple unboxing sequence:

• customer opens the outer package,
• sees the branded tissue paper,
• opens the wrapped product,
• and discovers the thank-you card or insert.

The same colours, logo treatment and visual language can be used across both elements without repeating exactly the same design.

Thank You Cards & Custom Printed Paper Bags

For physical retail, Custom Printed Paper Bags provide the outer customer carrier while the thank-you card can be placed inside the purchase.

The paper bag handles the physical handover; the card handles the customer message.

This separation of roles can create a more organised retail experience than trying to place every marketing message directly onto the carrier bag.

How Do Thank You Cards Improve the Unboxing Experience?

A thank-you card can act as the point where packaging becomes direct communication.

Boxes, bags and tissue paper primarily present or protect the product. The card can speak directly to the customer.

That makes it useful for:

• acknowledging the purchase,
• giving the order a more considered feel,
• reinforcing the brand after delivery,
• and creating a clear final touchpoint inside the package.

Its role is strongest when it complements the product and packaging instead of adding unnecessary clutter.

How Should You Design a Branded Thank You Card?

A strong card should remain visually connected to the rest of the packaging.

Consider using the same:

• logo treatment,
• brand colours,
• typography,
• illustration style,
• tone of voice,
• and graphic elements

used across tissue paper, stickers, paper bags or other retail packaging.

However, consistency does not mean every packaging product needs the exact same layout. The thank-you card should be designed specifically for its role as a customer communication piece.

What Is the Minimum Order for Custom Printed Thank You Cards?

The current Packonic Thank You Card product starts from 250 pieces.

A 250-piece starting quantity can be useful for:

• new e-commerce businesses,
• independent retailers,
• small product launches,
• seasonal campaigns,
• limited-edition packaging,
• gift businesses,
• or brands testing new artwork before ordering larger volumes.

Businesses should compare the order quantity with real monthly order volume and the expected lifetime of the artwork.

Wholesale & Bulk Thank You Cards

Businesses with stable branding and predictable order volume may need wholesale custom thank you cards or bulk packaging insert cards.

Before increasing quantity, calculate:

• average monthly e-commerce orders,
• number of cards used per order,
• physical retail usage,
• seasonal volume changes,
• whether several brands or product ranges use different artwork,
• and how frequently the card message changes.

A permanent logo-and-thank-you design can normally be stocked for longer than a card containing a time-sensitive campaign or discount message.

How Long Do Custom Thank You Cards Take to Produce?

The current live Packonic.eu Thank You Cards category lists approximately:

• Standard delivery: 14–21 business days
• Express delivery: 5–10 business days

Businesses preparing for product launches, gifting periods or seasonal campaigns should check the current delivery estimate before ordering, especially where the artwork has a fixed usage date.

• and coordinate the card with the rest of the packaging.

Build a Complete Branded E-Commerce & Retail Packaging System

Thank-you cards work best when they have a clear role inside the wider packaging experience.

Custom Printed Tissue Paper provides the inner wrapping and reveal around the product.

Custom Stickers & Labels can close tissue paper or add adhesive branding to bags, boxes and other surfaces.

Custom Printed Paper Bags provide the outer carrier for physical retail purchases.

Custom Printed Hang Tags provide product-level branding for fashion, accessories, gifts and other retail products.

For the wider customer journey, these elements can be combined through the Custom Retail & E-Commerce Packaging range.

What Should You Check Before Ordering Custom Printed Thank You Cards?

Before ordering custom printed thank you cards, decide exactly what role the card should play inside the customer experience.

• Purpose: thank-you message, packaging insert, repeat-purchase communication or brand presentation.
• Size: choose between verified A7, A6 and A5 formats.
• Paper: the current verified product uses Uncoated Paper.
• Paper weight: compare 300 GSM and 350 GSM.
• Printing: the verified product uses Digital Printing.
• Artwork: keep the logo and primary message easy to recognise.
• Information: avoid overcrowding the card with too many calls to action.
• Package fit: make sure the card size is appropriate for the box, bag or parcel.
• MOQ: the current product starts from 250 pieces.

Custom printed thank you cards work best when the message, card size, paper weight, artwork and packaging context are planned together. By giving the card one clear job—communicating directly with the customer—e-commerce and retail brands can create a more considered final touch inside the order without overloading the rest of the packaging with unnecessary information.
