Our Story

That One Card Company was born because someone (definitely NOT our owner) got frustrated in a Kroger. 

She was looking for a greeting card to give to someone. Not for an occasion or anything, she just wanted to give them a card. She was in the card aisle for probably 10 minutes before finally finding one that didn’t mention an anniversary or a spouse or a nieces 5th birthday. The few that were "just because, for a friend"  weren’t exactly the best looking, but it's what was available so she grabbed a sub-par card and checked out.

Later that day, she joked about being so annoyed about it that she was just going to start her own card company selling good cards that don't immediately disqualify people from buying them because of their intended recipient. And also, they were going to look good. And maybe be kind of funny.

Now, here we are. 

Don't get us wrong. We know the greeting card industry is huge, but giving cards is an inexpensive, personal way to make someone feel good and there's still a huge demographic of us card-givers who are stuck settling on generic “thankful for you” cards while wishing it were easier to find good cards that weren’t tied to an occasion or specific relationship. Enter That One Card Company.

We believe in the power of a well-designed, recipient-ambiguous card to make someone’s day. With TOCC, you’re the one who adds the magic. Our design-forward cards are crafted to let you bring joy in any moment — no occasion or special relationship required. Whether you want to send something funny, something sincere, or just something cool to look at,  you turn a simple card into something meaningful. So go ahead, make someone’s day.
