If you want to make a promise to someone, there is a new website that might help you send your promise/message across in a way that your loved ones will remember and can actually keep with them.
The website is called Bank of Promises.
Here is a brief from the site itself :-
About the Bank :-
The Bank of Promises allows you to send an alternative to, and hybrid of, a greeting card (birthday, Christmas, Valentines etc) and a gift – it’s a card with a Promise Note included.
About the Note:-
The Promise Notes are a similar size, and have a similar look and feel, to bank notes but instead of stating “One Pound”, they state “One Promise”. Each Promise Note is printed with a unique serial number so that no two are ever alike.
And for those who are interested, yes, I have been involved in developing this website and I have thoroughly enjoyed working on it. This is basically a phase 1 of a much larger plan but for now, its out there and ready for people to send out promises to each other. Please feel free to spread the word across.

Wow! I absolutely love this idea. I am going to order a few right now. You may want to suggest to the “powers that be” that they provide a large/high resolution sample of a promise note.

@Troy, I love the idea personally as well. I think there cant be a better way of promising someone. And about your request, I think there is a sample of the actual promise under “Promise of the Month” and also, when you begin your journey of Making a Promise, you will get to “Review your Promise”. Let me know if you face any issues while making your Promises and I will be glad to help you out.

@Anuj,
First the contact address is listed as “support” and that fails delivery. I think it is supposed to be “support” .
Second, I saw the “Promise of the Month”, but I think it would still be good to provide a LARGER sample to see what looks like wonderful details on the note.
Good Luck!
Troy

I just made two promises. Very slick!
The address fields are not very “US friendly”. You may want to consider making it more clear where the US State is supposed to go.

Yes, any feedback is good and I am sure all these little things will be taken care of pretty soon.
