Eidiya, the Eid money gift, is one of the most loved Eid traditions in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, and printed Eidiya cards make giving it more beautiful and organised, whether for children at home, your company staff or your store's customers. In this ENJOY STORE guide we share Eidiya card ideas, shapes, suitable sizes and materials, and how to print them with names or a logo.
Types of Eidiya Cards
Shaped Eidiya Cards
Cards cut into distinctive shapes such as a crescent, a lantern or the Saudi riyal symbol, which children love and which look great in photos.
Cards With Envelopes
A printed card that holds the money or comes with a small envelope, ideal for relatives and guests.
Cards With Sweets
A card with a sweet or chocolate attached, a favourite for school, nursery and mosque giveaways.
Corporate Eidiya Cards
A card carrying the company logo and a formal greeting for staff and clients.
Message Ideas for Eidiya Cards

- A traditional Eid greeting in beautiful Arabic calligraphy.
- "Your Eidiya from…" with the family or grandparents' name.
- A company greeting to staff with the logo and brand colours.
- A thank-you note for store customers with a gift code for the next order.
Suitable Sizes and Materials
- Small cards of 7 to 10 cm for children and giveaways.

- 300 to 350 gsm coated card stock to keep the shape.
- Gloss or matte lamination to protect the print.
Find Eidiya cards and giveaways in the seasonal products and event printing categories, and all paper cards in paper printing.
Eidiya Cards for Companies and Stores
Eid is a great chance to strengthen relationships with staff and customers. A branded Eidiya card with a token amount or voucher, or a thank-you card inside Eid orders, leaves a good impression. For bulk orders, contact our corporate and wholesale services, and see corporate promotional gift ideas.
When to Order Eidiya Cards
We recommend ordering at least two weeks before Eid, because demand for printing rises sharply in the last days of Ramadan. Ordering early gives you time to approve the design and check names.
Design Tips
- Use cheerful colours with a gold touch.
- Write names in a clear, large enough font.
- Leave space for the money or sweet if the card holds it.
- Check name spelling before approval.
- Match the cards with giveaway bags and boxes.

What Is Eidiya and Why Presentation Matters
Eidiya is a gift of money or presents that adults give to children, family and relatives at Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, and it is one of the traditions children in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf look forward to most. Over time, how the Eidiya is presented has become part of the Eid joy itself, which is why printed Eidiya cards with names and colourful designs have become so popular, with searches rising every year weeks before Eid.
Eidiya Card Ideas for Children
- A card with the child's name in large colourful letters and a simple Eid illustration.
- A riyal-symbol card cut in the shape of the Saudi currency.
- A card with a money pocket or small envelope.
- A card with a sweet or small toy attached.
- A colouring card with an Eid drawing the child colours in.
Eidiya Cards for Family and Relatives
For adults and relatives, elegant cards in calm colours with gold touches suit best, with refined greetings. You can add the family name to every card for a matching look at the family gathering, or design a special card for grandparents to give grandchildren by name.
Eidiya Cards in Schools and Nurseries
Many schools and nurseries give small gifts before the Eid holiday. A card with the school logo and the student's name plus a sweet or sticker brings children great joy and strengthens the school's bond with families. Cards can be prepared from a full class list with one design and changing names.
Eidiya Cards for Companies and Staff
In companies, Eidiya cards reflect management's care for the team. Offer a branded greeting card with an amount or voucher, or attach it to a small gift box. For clients, an elegant branded card is enough. For matching gift boxes, read the guide to custom printed boxes.
Eidiya Cards for Online Stores
If you run a store, add an Eid card inside every order with a greeting and a gift code for the next order. This simple touch raises satisfaction and boosts post-Eid orders. Complete it with an Eid-themed seal sticker from the stickers category.
Suggested Eid Messages
- "Eid Mubarak, may you celebrate it for many years."
- "Happy Eid, [name]."
- "Eid is sweeter with you."
- "Your Eidiya has arrived, happy Eid."
- "From the heart, Eid Mubarak."
How to Order Eidiya Cards
- Choose a card shape from seasonal products or paper printing.
- Prepare an organised list of names if the cards are personalised.
- Choose the message and colours, and attach your logo for companies or stores.
- Choose the design service if you have no design.
- Approve the proof; production takes 1 to 3 business days.
Common Mistakes
- Ordering in the last days of Ramadan.
- Spelling mistakes in names from an unchecked list.
- A card too small for the money or sweet.
- A crowded design where the name gets lost.
Summary
An Eidiya card is a small detail that creates big joy. Choose the shape for the people you are gifting, write a warm message, match the design with your other Eid prints and order early. Whether for children, family, staff or customers, printed cards make your Eidiya more beautiful and memorable.
Suggested Themes and Colours
- Classic gold: white or navy with gold patterns, crescents and lanterns, for families and companies.
- Colourful for kids: bright colours with balloons, sweets and toys.
- Pastel: pink, lilac and light green, elegant for girls and family occasions.
- Heritage: Sadu patterns and Najdi motifs for an authentic Saudi feel.
- Brand theme: company or store colours and logo to match your brand.
Ways to Wrap the Eidiya With the Card
Place the money and card in a small printed envelope, in a clear bag with sweets sealed with a round name sticker, or arrange several Eidiyas in a giveaway box for the whole family. Find seal stickers and giveaways in the stickers and event printing categories, and box ideas in the printed boxes guide.
Eid al-Fitr vs Eid al-Adha: Different Designs?
The same card can work for both with a different greeting, but many families prefer bright colours and lanterns for Eid al-Fitr and calmer designs with Hajj symbols for Eid al-Adha. For large quantities, order both designs together to prepare early.
How Many Cards Do I Need?
Count the children in the extended family and add spares for unexpected guests. Companies should count staff plus a margin for new joiners. A few spares save embarrassment on Eid day, especially with name cards.
A Final Tip for a Memorable Eidiya
Write a short personal note by hand on the back of the printed card. Combining beautiful print with a warm handwritten word turns the Eidiya into a keepsake.
Eid Giveaways That Go With Eidiya Cards
- Clear sweet bags sealed with an "Eid Mubarak" family-name sticker.
- Small boxes with chocolate or maamoul and a greeting card.
- Colouring books and pencils to keep children busy.
- Door hangers and welcome cards at the entrance.
- Small Eid stickers for children.
Matching the design across cards, bags and boxes looks beautiful in photos, and you can order everything together to save time and shipping.
When Do Searches for Eidiya Cards Peak?
Searches usually start mid-Ramadan and peak in the last ten days. Companies, schools and stores should prepare designs before Ramadan, and individuals should order in the first or second week of Ramadan.
Advice From the ENJOY STORE Team
What delights customers most at Eid is the personal detail: the child's name written clearly, a favourite colour and a warm family message. If quantity allows, choose name cards over one generic design, prepare the list early, check names with family and order before the rush.
Eid photos become lasting memories, and name cards appear in photos of children holding their Eidiya, so choose a design you will love in the family album. A different colour per family branch also makes handing them out easier.
