Why parents choose Magic Video

Written by you

Mention a new sibling, a brave trip to the dentist or a lost tooth. The details are what make it magic.

Safe and private

Only a first name is needed. Videos are never published and are deleted when your link expires.

Looked after

If anything goes wrong, a real person is alerted and we'll put it right — or refund you.

Questions parents ask

How long does it take to receive the video?

Most videos are ready within a few minutes of payment. We email you a private link as soon as it is ready, and you can also follow progress on your order page.

What can I write in the message?

Anything warm and personal — a well done for school, a reminder to be kind, a hint about a special present. Please keep it family friendly; we don't accept links, phone numbers or email addresses in messages.

How do I receive and keep the video?

You'll receive a private link by email where you can watch and download the video as an MP4 file. The link stays active for 30 days, so please save the video to your device.

Is my child's information safe?

We only ask for the first name and message needed to make the video, plus your email address for delivery. Videos are private, never published, and deleted from our servers when the link expires.
