Everything you need to know about Belated Gift
Belated Gift is a free service that helps you create beautiful, festive landing pages to announce a gift that's on the way. It's the perfect solution when you want to give someone their gift on time, even if the physical item hasn't arrived yet due to shipping delays or late ordering. You can create unlimited gift pages with custom messages, images, and QR codes to share digitally or print on a card.
Create a gift reveal page on Belated Gift in under 2 minutes. Add a personalized message explaining when the gift will arrive, include optional photos, and share the page via text, email, or QR code. Recipients see a fun gift box animation that reveals your message, making the announcement special rather than awkward. This works for birthdays, holidays, weddings, and any occasion.
Don't let shipping delays ruin the surprise. Use Belated Gift to create a digital gift announcement page that you can share immediately on the special day.

The recipient will appreciate the thoughtfulness and advance notice.

Yes! Belated Gift includes free AI-powered features: an AI Writing Assistant that generates personalized gift messages in multiple tones (heartfelt, casual, funny, or formal), and an AI Image Generator that creates unique 1024x1024px preview images based on your gift description. Both features use free-tier APIs (Groq for text, Hugging Face for images) and are completely optional.

The QR code makes it easy for recipients to scan and view your gift page on their phone.

Each has a unique festive theme. You can create three gift types: Physical (for shipped items), Digital (for e-gifts, gift cards, subscriptions), and Experience (for tickets, trips, activities).
