Can I ship a custom trading card directly to the recipient as a gift?

Quick answer

Yes. At checkout, enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and the order goes straight to them. A Rookie Box arrives in a branded Snapshot card box with a one-touch magnetic display case, which presents well as it is. There is no gift-wrap or gift-message option, so let the tracking email be your cue to call.

Key takeaways

  • ✓Use the recipient's address as the shipping address at checkout.
  • ✓A Rookie Box arrives gift-ready in a branded box with a magnetic case.
  • ✓No gift wrap or gift note is available at checkout.
  • ✓Each order ships to one address; two recipients means two orders.

How to do it

Build the card, add the box to the cart, and at checkout put the recipient's name and address in the shipping fields. Shipping is quoted for that address, and the arrival window shown is for their door. Your email stays on the order, so the confirmation and tracking come to you.

What arrives

A Rookie Box comes in a branded Snapshot card box with a one-touch magnetic display case for the featured card, inside a rigid mailer. That is presentable on its own; many gifters simply let the box be the wrapping. A MEGA Card arrives in a fitted protective sleeve.

What checkout does not offer

There is no gift-wrap option and no gift-message field, and Snapshot does not sell gift cards. If the surprise matters, the tracking email tells you the day the parcel is out for delivery, which is a good moment to send a message of your own.

Sending to several people

An order ships to one address. To send cards to grandparents in two cities, place two orders, one per address. Each is priced on its own subtotal, so US standard shipping is free on each at $30+ and $5.00 flat below.

More questions

Can I send the card to someone else's address?

Yes. Enter their address as the shipping address at checkout. The confirmation and tracking emails still come to you.

Can I add a gift message?

No. Checkout has no gift-note or gift-wrap option. Send your message separately when the tracking shows it is arriving.

Does the recipient see the price?

The receipt goes to your email as the buyer. The slip packed with the cards identifies the box and its card count, not the price.

Can I ship to two people in one order?

No. Place one order per shipping address.
