What is a Santa Call?
A Santa Call is a personalized message that a recipient receives through a landline or cellphone number in real time. They can be placed in over 170 countries around the world (see available country list HERE)!
In the Call section, find over 40 scenarios from different categories, such as Congratulations, Encouragement, Night before Christmas, Birthday, and more. A Santa Call can only be placed once it has been personalized and saved in My Creations under the Calls tab. Once the calls have been personalized, they will remain in your account for 30 days.
NOTE: If you do not place the call within 30 days, it will automatically be removed from your account.
When you place a call, you will be asked to enter a valid phone number. On the receiving end, the recipient (or you, if you use your own phone number and answer yourself) must press 1 to listen to Santa's message. You will have a maximum of 3 attempts to complete the call, which are used up if:
- If the recipient does not answer the call.
- If the recipient, or their voice message service, answers but does not press 1 (the call will be ended and one call attempt will have been used.)If all 3 attempts are used up, the call cannot be attempted again, so be sure that the recipient knows that a call is coming.
NOTE: The caller will not be charged long distance fees, but we cannot guarantee the recipient will not be charged, as any additional fees depend on the recipient's phone plan (e.g. roaming or long distance fees).

What happens if the recipient is unable to answer my call?
You should always ensure that your recipient is ready to pick up the phone by either letting them know ahead of time that a call is on the way, or knowing that they are available. Once the call is answered, the recipient must press 1 to connect to Santa following the elf's invitation.
If the recipient does not press 1, or if their voicemail service picks up for them, this will use up 1 of 3 attempts you have to place the call.
NOTE: If you schedule a call, the time zone used is your current time zone.

I'm having troubles placing calls to Mexico, Argentina, or Brazil.
We are aware of some difficulty in placing calls to certain areas. Some additions may be needed when entering the phone number in an international format.
Mexico:
Calling a cell phone from outside of Mexico: Please add a 1 before the area code (e.g.: +52-1-624-166-6887).
Calling a cell phone from within Mexico: Please add 044 or 045, then the area code, then the number.
Argentina: Please add a 9 before the area code for calls to cell phones in Argentina.
Brazil: Please be sure to include the 2 digit area code before the 8 digit phone number.
