Custom Video Boxes That Play a Personalized Message When Opened
A video box is a rigid, custom-printed packaging box with a built-in LCD screen and speaker. When the recipient opens the lid, a preloaded video plays automatically – a product demonstration, a CEO message, a personalized thank-you, or a product training walkthrough.
Unlike a video mailer or video brochure, a gift box with a video screen is engineered to also hold a physical product, a sample, a gift, a bottle, an award, a book, or anything else you want to send. The box is built around your product and your video, not the other way around.
Video boxes are a premium marketing tool designed to help brands stand out and deliver impactful messages.
Put your product in someone’s hands with a story attached. Promotional video boxes are used by pharmaceutical companies, cosmetics brands, and consumer goods companies to distribute samples alongside a video that explains the product, demonstrates the benefit, or introduces the sales rep.
Deliver a compliant, controlled, and compelling product introduction. Video screen boxes allow pharmaceutical and medical device companies to combine physical samples with a professional video message – a format that gets in front of physicians and decision-makers in a memorable way.
Present an award the way it deserves to be presented. Video award boxes combine the physical weight of a glass or acrylic trophy with a video tribute that plays on delivery; ideal for remote teams, virtual events, and organizations spread across the country.
Authors and publishers use video book boxes to distribute advance copies to media and influencers. The video plays commentary from the author the moment the book is revealed; the kind of experience that gets posted on social media.
A gift box with LCD screen sent as an event invitation has a near-100% open rate and generates buzz before the event even happens. Recipients share the experience online. Agencies use them for product launches, film premieres, and VIP event announcements.
When a standard gift isn’t enough, send an executive, a top client, or a VIP prospect a box that plays a personalized message the moment they open it, together with a gift. Brands use video gift boxes for year-end gifts, onboarding moments, and milestone recognitions.
▶ Opens. Plays. Instantly.
No buttons to press, no app to download. The moment the lid opens, the screen activates and your video starts playing. Optionally, we can add button controls or a touchscreen display.
▶ Custom-Built to Your Dimensions
Every box is made to fit your product. Tell us what you’re putting inside- a bottle, a device, a book, cosmetics- and we design the box around it. Optional custom foam or velvet-lined inserts keep everything in place.
▶ Printed in Full Color
The exterior is printed with your branding in full 4-color print. We offer matte and gloss lamination, spot UV, embossing, debossing, foil stamping, and PMS color matching. For luxury projects, our leather video box is available in vegan leather with sateen interior lining.
▶ Self-Powered and Rechargeable
The battery is built-in and rechargeable via USB. The LCD screen gift box ships with video already preloaded – your recipient just opens it.

The video plays while the box’s contents are on display.

theVideoCards offers three primary configurations: Magnetic Closure Video Box (traditional clamshell design), Collapsible Rigid Video Box (flat-pack design that ships efficiently and assembles on-site), and Book Style Video Box (opens like a book). Each configuration can be customized to fit your specific needs.
What can I put inside a video box?
Video boxes are designed to hold product samples, gifts, bottles, awards, books, or any other physical item you want to distribute.
