Everything you need to know about sending spuds. Anonymously, of course.
🥔 How It Works
Pick your potato style, add your custom message and/or photo, choose your ship date, and place your order. We'll print it on a real russet potato and mail it anonymously straight to your recipient — no return address with your name, just a potato and a mystery.
Enter the recipient's address — the person getting the potato. Your address doesn't go anywhere on the package. We know it seems obvious, but you'd be surprised how many potatoes have accidentally been mailed to the sender. (No judgment.)
Only if you want them to! We ship 100% anonymously — the return address shows our company only. Your name never appears anywhere on the package. Sign your message if you want credit. Or don't, and leave them wondering forever.
Absolutely. Sarcastic, savage, and even mildly profane messages are welcome — it's a potato. We just can't print hateful, threatening, or genuinely harmful content. Use your best judgment. If it would get you HR'd at your job, maybe tone it down 10%.
📸 Photo & Message
Clear, well-lit, and facing the camera. The face (or whatever you're printing) should be centered and fill most of the frame. Blurry, dark, or sideways photos don't print well — we'll do our best but the potato can only do so much.
Up to 130 characters — about the length of a tweet. It's a potato, not a canvas. Make it count. Use our AI Message Writer on the product page if you need inspiration.
🚢 Shipping & Timing
We typically process orders within 1–3 business days, then standard USPS shipping takes 3–7 business days. So plan on about 5–10 business days from order to delivery. Timing isn't guaranteed — the postal service does its own thing.
Yes! Select "Choose a Date" on the product page. We'll ship it on that day (or as close to it as possible). Great for timed pranks, birthdays, anniversaries, or passive-aggressive messages you've been sitting on for weeks.
Email support@anonymouspotato.com with your order number as soon as possible. We print and process orders quickly, so reach out immediately. Once it's printed and packaged, we can't make changes.
🥔 The Potato Itself
100% yes. A real Idaho russet potato, custom-printed, wrapped, and mailed. No box, no padding — just a bare potato in the mail. It's exactly as absurd as it sounds.
Please don't. The potato has been printed with ink and has traveled through the mail system. It's a novelty gift item, not a snack. We won't stop you, but we will judge you.
