Ink'd Greetings

Ink'd Greetings is a Phoenix-based startup building self-service kiosks that let shoppers design, personalize and print a real greeting card - and optionally load a gift card onto it - in about 30 seconds for $2.99. Founded in 2023 by husband-and-wife team Andrew and Sammi Ekmark, the company is pitching a modern, on-demand alternative to the Hallmark-dominated card aisle, placing machines in malls, campus stores and retail partners. It has raised roughly $1M in seed funding (led by Hamid Shojaee of AZ Disruptors) and is expanding toward a nationwide footprint.
