Birthdays can be tracked in Expiration Reminder by following these steps.
Create a new email template for birthdays
Add a new email template that will have the congratulatory message for the birthday.
Click on Your Account and then on Settings.

Add a birthday category
Now, let's add a new category for tracking birthdays.
Click on Your Account and then on Settings.
Then click on Categories on the left menu.
Click on the green button to add a New Category. On the new screen, enter the following information.
Name: enter the category name. For this case, enter Birthday.
Reminders: remove the reminders and just leave one in there. For that one, set the days prior expiration to zero so the reminder gets sent on the actual expiration date.
Auto renew: set it to Yes and the auto renew to 1 year.
Click on the Email Templates tab and set the Alert Email Template to the Birthday Email Template that we just created.
Click on the Advanced tab and untick the checkbox Send expired notifications.
