Put their name in a birthday fireworks show
Make a virtual birthday card with your message and their name in fireworks. Preview the show, then send its link in a text, email or chat. No account or app needed.
Free greeting, or Deluxe for $1.99 once per greeting. What’s included
What they see when they open it
Your message appears in fireworks, with their name on a separate line. They can replay the greeting in their browser. Choose a beach or frozen-lake setting in Customize, along with the colors and pace.
Birthday messages that fit in the sky
The message holds up to 24 characters, and there’s an optional second line. Short and warm reads best. A few ideas:
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAMTheir name right in the message, or save it for the line of its own.
- HAPPY 40TH, DADA milestone gets a line to itself. “FROM ALL OF US” works well underneath.
- 30 AND FABULOUSFor the friend who’d roll their eyes and secretly love it.
- ANOTHER YEAR OF YOUFor someone you’re glad is around.
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANAThe name you call them, in lights.
- CHEERS TO YOUWhen you’re not sure what to say, this is enough.
Send it by text, even at the last minute
Make the greeting, choose Free or Deluxe, and use Preview the show to check that version before sending. Copy the finished link into a text, WhatsApp message or email, or use your browser’s share menu when available. You send it yourself; there is no delivery to schedule or package to ship.
For a long-distance birthday, send the link when it suits their time zone. They can open it later, or you can call and watch it together.
Free, or Deluxe
Free includes your words, their name and a selection of fireworks. Deluxe is $1.99, once per greeting. It adds a longer grand finale, extra effects, side-barge fountains, a gift-wrapped opening and your signature in the sky. Free and Deluxe versions can look different, so preview the one you plan to send. No subscription. Launch offer ends 2026-11-09 03:57:00 UTC; then $4.99.
Want to keep it?
A Free greeting link lasts a year; a Deluxe link doesn’t expire. In browsers that support recording, Save as video lets you keep a clip. Free videos have a small SkyGreeting mark; paid Deluxe greetings can be saved without it.
