What is an AI face swap card?

An AI face swap card is a personalised digital card that drops a real person's face straight into the artwork. You upload a clear photo, the AI places the face into the design automatically, and the result is a funny, heartfelt card that looks like it was made just for them. It works for birthdays, farewells, retirements and any occasion, and the whole team can still sign it from one shared link.

Why send an AI face swap card?

It's the same easy group card, with one extra bit of magic: their actual face, right in the artwork.

No editing skills needed

Upload a photo and the AI does the rest in under 30 seconds. No Photoshop, no design know-how.

Genuinely personal

Putting their actual face into the artwork makes the card funnier and more memorable than any generic e-card.

Still a group card

The whole team can sign the same face swap card from one link, with no account or login needed to add a message.

Perfect for any occasion

Birthdays, farewells, retirements, work anniversaries or just for fun. One photo, endless designs.

Private by default

Only the finished card is shared. The photo you upload stays private and is never shown to contributors.

Included, no extra cost

The AI face swap is built in, no add-on and no upgrade. Cards start from Β£2 as a one-off, with face swap included.

Award-winning, too: ExpressWithACard was named Digital Greetings Card Platform of the Year 2026/27 by the Prestige Awards.
