From $6.99 • Free US shipping
Heavy cardstock, printed track listing on the front, QR code on the back, mailed in a real envelope.
- MIXCARD prints any Spotify playlist as a physical card and mails it via USPS.
- Cards arrive in 3-5 business days within the US.
- Each card has a QR code so he can listen on Spotify, Apple Music, or any platform.
- Brother-targeted playlists tend to lean specific: the songs from your shared childhood, his current obsessions, or the era you were both in a band together.
Your brother is not expecting a Valentine. He'd probably be slightly suspicious of one.
That's why this works. The card aisle has nothing for this exact relationship — there's no "to my brother" Valentine that doesn't read like a wedding speech. And anything sentimental from the card aisle would get screenshotted to the group chat for sport.
MIXCARD prints his playlist on heavy cardstock. The exact songs he plays in the car when nobody else is there. Track listing on the front, QR on the back. It shows up at his place a few days later and he opens it expecting a credit-card offer. He won't say much. He'll keep it.
What makes this card different
He won't admit he likes it
He'll say "oh, cool" and put it on his desk. Three months later you'll notice it's still there. That's how brothers say thank you.
Specific over sentimental
A long emotional message gets dunked on. A perfectly chosen Mac DeMarco song does the work without giving him anything to mock.
Quietly raises the stakes
He's not getting a card from anyone else. The bar is on the floor. You clearing it by an inch lands like clearing it by a mile.
Where to start
Songs from the basement, 2008
Whatever was on shuffle while you played video games for entire weekends.
Stuff he made you listen to
The tracks he kept sending until you finally admitted they were good. Now they're his, on a card.
His current obsession, frozen in time
Whatever he's playing on repeat right now. In a year he'll have moved on, and the card will be the receipt.

Common questions
What if he doesn't use Spotify?▼
The track names are printed on the card itself. The QR code on the back works with Apple Music, YouTube, or any platform.
How long does it take to arrive?▼
Cards print in 1-2 business days, then 3-5 days in the mail. Order by early February to land before the 14th.
Is it weird to send a Valentine to a brother?▼
It's a card with his music on it. Frame it however you want — "thanks for the playlist" works fine. He'll get it.
Can I leave the back blank?▼
Yes. A lot of brother cards work better with no note at all. The playlist is the message.
