How it works

  1. You fill 24 surprises

    Start from a ready-made template or a blank page, pick a scene and add their name. The preview is free, so you can try everything.

  2. You pay once

    When it’s ready, a single payment, no subscription. Card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.

  3. Your gift arrives on the day you choose

    A lovely email with your note, on the day and at the time you pick. Or send the link yourself, or print a gift card.

  4. One door a day until Christmas

    From December 1 to 24, a new door opens every day. Each one reveals a piece of the photo puzzle, and on the 24th, the big door opens.

See it for real

The scene turns under your finger, the doors light up, and every surprise opens like a card. It all happens in the phone’s browser: nothing to download.

What you can hide behind the doors

These are the calendar’s real cards, running on the same code. Pick a box type and try it.

Works in every box: a voice message. For this example, a little Christmas tune.

Turn on JavaScript to try the cards.

The simplest and most touching: a little note, as if handwritten.

And a puzzle that comes together

Pick a photo: every door opened reveals a piece. On the 24th, the picture is complete.

8 scenes to choose from

Their name appears in the scene, and they can even switch scenes before December 1. The scenes hide little surprises too: tap the house twice (double-click on a computer) and Santa pops out of the chimney; on the mountain, he skis down the slope.

  • The gingerbread house
  • Santa’s sleigh
  • The snow globe
  • The heart-shaped present
  • The big Christmas tree
  • The snowman
  • The snowy mountain
  • The teddy bear and his toys

Give it your way

  • A lovely email, on the day you choose

    On the evening of November 30, on the big day or right away: they get an email with your note and their link.

  • The link, sent by you

    By text, on WhatsApp or face to face: a link and a code, nothing else.

  • A printable gift card

    With a QR code, their name and your note. Slip it under the tree or into an envelope.

Either way, nothing to install: the calendar opens in the browser, on a phone or a computer.

Frequently asked questions

Do they need to install an app?

No. The calendar opens in the browser, on a phone, tablet or computer: the link is all it takes. It can be added to the home screen to find it again in one tap.

Do I need to create an account?

No. You start straight away, without giving anything. We only ask for your email address when you pay, or if you want to save your calendar and carry on later: you then get a link to find it again. Without an email, your draft stays on this device and is deleted after 30 days without a visit.

How does the person receive their calendar?

However you like: an email sent on the day and at the time you choose, with your note; a link and a code that you send yourself; or a printable gift card with a QR code.

When do the doors open?

A new door every day from December 1 to 24, in the recipient’s time zone. If they start late, all past doors open at once, so you can even give it after December 1.

I’m short of ideas for 24 doors!

Start from a template: 24 doors already written, which you change as you like. The parts to personalise are highlighted.

What can go behind a door?

A little note, one or more photos, a voucher, a song (a link to YouTube, Spotify, Deezer or Apple Music), a quiz, a riddle, a scratch card, a date, a hidden gift… And every door opened reveals a piece of a puzzle made from your photo.

Can I edit the calendar after sending it?

Yes: you can change the content of any door that hasn’t been opened yet.

Does my content stay private?

The calendar only opens with its secret link, never shows up in search engines and can be protected with a PIN. Hidden photo data (location, device) is removed on upload. All content is deleted on January 31; you can download your memories before then.

What if they lose their link?

They can get it back with their email address on the “I lost my link” page, and you can also resend it yourself.

How much does it cost?

Until November 29 (launch prices): €4.99 per calendar and €12.99 for the pack of 3. After that: €5.99 and €14.99. A single payment, no subscription, and creating is free until you send it.

How does payment work?

By card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, on Stripe’s secure page. We never see your card number.

Can I get a refund?

Your calendar is activated as soon as you pay, and you then waive your right of withdrawal (a box asks you before payment). The legal guarantees remain: if your calendar doesn’t work as promised and we can’t fix it, you are entitled to a price reduction or a refund. For a pack, credits you haven’t used yet can be refunded within 14 days of purchase. The details are in our terms of sale.

Which languages?

The calendar is available in 11 languages: French, English, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Danish and Norwegian. What you write in the doors stays as you wrote it.

Does it work on every phone?

On recent iPhones and Android phones, tablets and computers. On a device too old for 3D, the calendar shows a simplified version with the same surprises.

Which countries can I buy from?

At launch, from countries in the European Union. The person receiving it can open it anywhere in the world.
