With the write & send service we hand-write your message into each card and post it straight to the recipients you choose. Price: writing service 2,00 € per order + Posti postage by weight and destination (one recipient = one envelope). Delivery is Posti Economy class, and we'll email you a confirmation once the cards have been sent. For recipients in Finland you can also choose a tracked delivery at checkout (6,50 €/envelope).

Delivery times

Orders to be shipped are sent once payment is confirmed, typically within 1–2 business days. Posti's delivery time within Finland is usually 2–3 business days. You can follow your order's progress on the Order status page using your order number and email.

Shipping costs

For light domestic orders (total weight up to 50 g) you can choose at checkout between an affordable letter without tracking, or a tracked shipment. Heavier orders are always sent tracked, based on the number of cards.

Returns and right of withdrawal

You have a statutory 14-day right of withdrawal under the Finnish Consumer Protection Act, starting from the day you receive the product. You do not need to give a reason. The easiest way is the online form: Cancel your order here — or email us at info@paperitaika.fi.
  • Refunds are processed once we have received and inspected the returned item, using the original payment method whenever possible.
  • Return shipping is paid by the customer — unless the product is defective or we sent the wrong item, in which case we cover the return shipping and provide a replacement or a full refund.
  • Partial cancellation: if you cancel only part of the order, we refund the cancelled items but not the original shipping costs.
  • Handling: you may handle the product only as much as needed to inspect it, as you would in a shop. If it is handled more than that, you may be responsible for any loss in value.
  • Personalised products: custom and made-to-order items — including handwritten cards and the “Kirjoitamme ja postitamme puolestasi” service — are excluded from the right of withdrawal, because they are made individually to your request (Consumer Protection Act 6:16).
