What Is the Printable PDF?
The printable PDF is our print-at-home hotel gift card. After payment, we email the PDF to you, the buyer — you print it and hand it over yourself, so it's ready the same day.
It folds down to a standard credit-card size and is best printed on cardstock for a sturdier feel.
It carries the exact same redeem code as our eGift and Premium Card: valid at 3M+ hotels in 190 countries, good for 24 months, with any remaining balance staying valid and the option to pay the difference on a pricier stay. Add a personal photo and message before you download it.
When to Choose the Printable PDF
Choose the PDF when you want something physical to give in person, but you don't have time to wait for shipping — a same-day birthday, a last-minute invite, or simply forgetting to order sooner.
It's the middle ground: a real card to fold and hand over, without the days-long wait of the mailed Premium Card.
Giving to someone far away instead of in person? The eGift Card delivers straight to their inbox in seconds. Want a keepsake-quality card and have a few days to spare? See the Premium Card below.
Delivery & Timing
The PDF is emailed to the buyer — not the recipient — within 2-3 minutes of payment clearing. You print it yourself, so you're in control of exactly when it's handed over.
It's free, with no shipping cost at all. Print it on standard paper in a pinch, or use cardstock for a card that feels closer to the real thing.
