Last-minute letter from Santa

A digital option when the post is too late

Santa Storytime delivers a digital letter, not a physical parcel. A grown-up fills in the recipient’s first name or nickname and optional interests, previews the opening and chooses whether to buy.

Most letters are ready in minutes, but this is not a guaranteed delivery time. Some payment methods confirm later, and network or service delays can happen. The full letter unlocks only when payment is confirmed.

Your Christmas Eve checklist

Have a parent email address ready and check you can open a PDF on your device. If you want a paper surprise tonight, check the printer has paper and ink before purchasing.

Once the paid letter is ready, download it directly rather than waiting for the email. Print in A4 portrait and check all pages. You can add your own envelope at home; we do not supply a posted envelope or stamp.

Not a promise about presents

Use a hobby, a kind moment or a favourite teddy to make the letter personal. Avoid promises that a particular gift will arrive, and leave out addresses, schools and other sensitive details.

One reply costs £1; a four-letter family pack costs £2.50. There is no account requirement or subscription, and the opening preview is free.

Santa letters: a parent's guide

Can I order a Santa letter on Christmas Eve?

Yes, the digital tool has no postal deadline. A PDF is usually ready in minutes after payment confirmation, subject to service availability and any payment-processing delay. Physical delivery is not included.

What if the email has not arrived?

Once payment and letter preparation are complete, use the download on the website. Check your email’s spam folder too. Do not buy the same original again just because the email is delayed.

Will it be ready instantly?

Usually in minutes, not a guaranteed instant turnaround. The free preview does not unlock the full reply, and payment must be confirmed before the full letter, PDF and parent email are released.
