Birthday messages
A birthday is the most natural time to tell someone how glad you are they exist. These messages are short and sincere. Pick one that fits, and tweak it in your own words if you like.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a birthday message be?
Two or three sentences is usually enough. One personal detail, like a shared memory or a nickname, does more than a long paragraph.
Is it better to send it at midnight or in the morning?
For someone close, midnight makes a lovely surprise. With a Surprivo premium card you can pick the exact time the card opens.
