Buy now, call on Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is busy: dinner, family, last-minute wrapping. That's why there's no booking and no time slot. You buy a package whenever it suits you, and the minutes simply wait until you need them. On the evening itself, you open the link and start – early, before dinner, or right before bed.

The price doesn't change on Christmas Eve: a 5-minute voice call is $4.99, a 5-minute video call is $9.99 and the 10-minute Magic package is $19.99. One payment, no subscription, and a 14-day money-back guarantee from the date of purchase.

Buying early also takes one thing off your list for the busiest week of the year. Keep the email with your call link somewhere easy to find – starred in your inbox or forwarded to the other parent – so whoever is ready first on Christmas Eve can start the call. No app and no account – just your email.

Minutes never expire – and can be split

Unused minutes never expire, and you don't have to use them all at once. Many families split the Magic package: one call in Advent, while the excitement is building, and another on Christmas Eve. If the line drops, the remaining minutes are kept.

With Magic, you fill in a short form – your child's name, age, pet, achievements and wishes – and Santa brings it up as if the elves had told him. Up to 4 brothers and sisters can take turns, so every little one in the family gets their moment.

What to expect on the night

On Christmas Eve, Santa talks with your child live, just as on any other day. Your child can ask about the reindeer, the sleigh, the cookies and carrots left out by the fireplace – and because Santa answers in real time, he reacts to what your child tells him. We won't pretend there's a special “sleigh mode” or a live map of his route. It's the same warm, live Santa, on the most exciting night of the year.

Santa is an AI character who talks live – that's how a real conversation in real time is possible, and we're open about it with parents. He never asks for an address, phone number or school, never promises a specific present and never tries to sell anything to your child. More on our child safety page.

Tips for a magical Christmas Eve call

Test it before the big night. Try the free 90-second call in advance, so you know your device and microphone work.

Turn the speaker on so the whole family can listen. Keep the device close to your child and the room quiet – Santa hears best when one person talks at a time.

Film the reaction on your own phone. Ask another adult to record your child's face while they talk. That clip often becomes the family's favorite Christmas memory.

Choose your moment. Before dinner works well for little ones; right before bed is perfect for a cozy goodnight from Santa.

Prepare a question or two. “Have you left the North Pole yet?” or “What do the reindeer like to eat?” helps shy children get started.

Video or voice? On a video call your child sees Santa on screen. Santa doesn't see your child – the camera image stays on your device.
