What is the best group card platform for companies?

Quick answer: The best group card platform for companies depends on what you need beyond the card. If you want low-cost unlimited cards for a set of organisers, SignThisCard's team seats (from £22 to £48 per seat a year) suit well. If you need SSO, HRIS integration or automated milestone cards, an enterprise plan such as Kudoboard's fits better.

Picking a company-wide card tool is less about the card and more about everything around it: who can create cards, how finance pays, and whether IT needs single sign-on. Get those right and almost any platform will do the job.

Below we compare the main options at the time of writing (November 2026), with prices checked on each vendor's own site. We make SignThisCard, so we've tried to be fair and say plainly where another platform is the better choice.

What should a company look for in a group card platform?

Look at four things first: how the platform charges, whether signers need an account, which integrations IT and HR require, and how finance can pay. Design templates and effects matter less than people expect.

Our overview of group cards for business explains how company accounts work in general. When you shortlist, check:

1. Pricing model. Per card, per pack, per creator seat, or by team size? A company with 1,000 staff but 15 organisers pays very differently under each.
2. Signer friction. Colleagues should be able to sign from a link on their phone without registering.
3. Integrations. SSO (Microsoft, Google or SAML), HRIS sync, and Slack or Teams apps are often enterprise-only.
4. Automation. Do you want cards created automatically for birthdays and work anniversaries?
5. Billing. Card payment, invoice, purchase order, currency and VAT.
6. Admin and continuity. Can someone else step in if an organiser is off sick?

How do the main group card platforms for companies compare?

At the time of writing, the platforms differ most in how they price business use and in whether SSO and HR integrations are offered. All of them let many people sign one card online.

"Not verified" or "not compared here" means we couldn't confirm it on the vendor's site, not that it's missing.

Which platform is best for which kind of company?

SignThisCard: best for low-cost unlimited cards for a set of organisers

SignThisCard team accounts charge per seat, and only people who create cards need one. Each seat gives that person the Unlimited plan for a year; colleagues sign free without an account. The owner pays once a year by card through Stripe, and every payment has a Stripe invoice.

Examples: 3 seats cost £144 a year, 20 seats £840 and 51 seats £1,530. Owners and team admins invite people by email, or let colleagues with a company-domain email join while seats are free.

Where it's less suitable: there's no SSO, no HRIS integration, no automatic birthday cards, no Slack or Teams app, no scheduled sending and no company-wide card dashboard. VAT isn't currently added to invoices, and self-serve payment is card only (bank transfer or a purchase order by arrangement). If any of those are must-haves, look elsewhere.

Kudoboard: best for companies that need enterprise integrations

Kudoboard's pricing page lists a Business plan from $299 a year and a Pro plan from $449 a year for teams of up to 50 employees, with tiers rising by team size to 500. Pro adds Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations. Its Enterprise plan, priced by quote, lists SSO, HRIS integrations, milestone automations and bulk board creation.

Where it's less suitable: tiers are based on the number of unique users who can post, so large companies pay by headcount rather than by organiser. Prices are in US dollars.

GroupGreeting: best for US teams buying card bundles

GroupGreeting sells single cards (around $5 at the time of writing) and annual bundles that lower the per-card price. According to its own pages, higher bundles add a company logo and multiple users, and bundle cards must be used within 12 months.

Where it's less suitable: we couldn't verify enterprise features such as SSO on its site, and prices are in dollars.

Greetpool: best for prepaid card packs in pounds

Greetpool's UK pricing page lists single cards at £4.79 and packs from £27 for 6 cards to £149 for 50 cards, with credits that don't expire. Team subscriptions add multiple creators, bulk creation from a spreadsheet and invoices from the account dashboard; subscription prices weren't shown on the page we checked.

Where it's less suitable: SSO and HR integrations aren't listed on its pricing page.

Thankbox: best when a gift collection is part of every card

Thankbox combines cards with a built-in gift collection and scheduled sending. Its pricing page lists Classic at £4.99 and Premium at £8.99 (inc. VAT), and a Team plan by quote with features such as company branding, usage analytics and SSO login.

Where it's less suitable: if you rarely collect money, you may pay for features you won't use.

Is per-seat or per-employee pricing cheaper for companies?

Per-creator seats are usually cheaper when a few people organise cards for many colleagues; per-employee pricing can work out better for small, card-heavy teams where almost everyone creates boards. Count your organisers before you compare quotes.

Take Priya, an office manager at a 400-person firm where 12 people (HR, team leads and EAs) organise every card. On SignThisCard, 12 seats cost £504 a year (12 × £42). Under a headcount-based model, the price depends on the employee tier rather than those 12 organisers.

If you're on a tight budget, our article on cheaper Kudoboard alternatives for business runs more scenarios.

Do large companies need something different?

Companies with hundreds or thousands of staff usually care most about SSO, procurement and data-protection paperwork. SignThisCard is self-serve up to 500 seats; beyond that, or for bank transfer, purchase orders or a data processing agreement, you'd contact us.

Our guide to group card platforms for large companies covers seat planning and procurement for 500+ employees.

Is a group card platform the same as a recognition platform?

No. A group card platform collects messages for one person on one occasion; a recognition platform runs ongoing peer recognition, often with points, rewards and analytics. If you need recognition data or automated milestone rewards, read our comparison of a group card versus an employee recognition platform.

Frequently asked questions

Which group card platform has SSO?

At the time of writing, Kudoboard lists SSO on its Enterprise plan and Thankbox lists SSO login among its team features. SignThisCard doesn't offer SSO: sign-in is by email and password or an emailed link and code. If single sign-on is a requirement from IT, shortlist providers that list it.

Which platform is cheapest for a company?

It depends on how many people create cards. If a handful of organisers make cards for many colleagues, SignThisCard's per-seat pricing is often low, for example £144 a year for three seats. If you only send a few cards a year, single cards or a prepaid pack may cost less overall.

Can we pay by invoice for a company group card plan?

SignThisCard's self-serve team plans are paid by card through Stripe, and each payment has a Stripe invoice. For bank transfer or a purchase order, contact us to arrange a team. Greetpool says invoices are available for Team and Enterprise subscribers; check each vendor's terms directly.

Do employees need accounts to sign?

Not on SignThisCard: anyone with the signing link can add a message without an account. In our experience, most group card platforms work in a similar way for signers. On SignThisCard, only people who create cards need an account, and on a team plan they need a seat.

Is there a free trial of business plans?

SignThisCard has no free trial for team plans. You can try it with the Free plan (one card, up to 15 signers) and the sample card before buying seats. Other vendors' trial terms vary, so check their pricing pages; we haven't compared trials here.

Which platform automates birthday cards?

Kudoboard lists milestone automations on its Enterprise plan, and employee recognition platforms often automate birthdays and work anniversaries. SignThisCard doesn't automate cards: organisers create them, can set an email reminder 0–365 days before the planned date, and then seal and send the finished card themselves on the day.

Conclusion

The best group card platform for companies is the one that matches your must-haves. If IT requires SSO or HR wants cards generated from the HRIS, pick an enterprise plan or a recognition platform that offers them. If you want a clear yearly price, free signing and unlimited cards for your organisers, SignThisCard's team accounts are worth a look. See team seat prices on the plans page and work out how many organisers you need.
