Depending on the type of message that you selected, a screen similar to the one below (at step 2) should appear.

Step 2.

Fill in the all of the fields on this screen.
If you de-select "preview" then your message will automatically be sent without you checking it.
Otherwise you can preview the message and edit it as often as you like before sending it.
If you select "send me a copy" then you will also be sent a message code so that you can view the message as the recipient will see it, for up to 30 days after the message has arrived.

Step 3.

If you leave the preview checkbox checked, you will be able to preview your message before sending by clicking the Preview/Send Message button.
To send the message once you have previewed it,click the Send Message button underneath the card on the preview screen.
If you would like to edit your message, i.e change the message or font colour, size, type click the Edit Message button and repeat the preview/send process.
If you deselected "preview" then clicking on View/Send Message sends the card as it is.

Step 4.

Your message should now be sent.
If for any reason the screen below does not appear then read the help page on What went wrong.
