Postcards stand out as a remarkably effective marketing tool, offering a direct route to your potential customers’ mailboxes. Whether you’re aiming to promote your services, announce a grand opening, highlight a new location, or advertise clearance sales, professionally printed postcards can make a significant impact. Leverage the power of direct mail by sending exclusive coupons or discounts to specific neighborhoods, effectively driving foot traffic right to your doorstep.
But postcards are not solely confined to advertising. For avid travelers, personalized post cards are a delightful way to share experiences with family and friends while on the go. They also serve as impeccable vehicles for announcements, heartfelt greetings, and elegant invitations, including memorable save-the-date cards and festive holiday greetings. Our versatile Post Card Printing services even extend to creating unique single-page calendars, bespoke party invites, and vibrant photo prints, offering solutions for a myriad of needs.

Streamlined Ordering and Design Process for Your Postcards
We offer two convenient pathways to bring your custom postcard vision to life. If you have a design ready, you can begin by downloading our postcard templates. These templates are pre-formatted with safe zones, trim lines, and bleed lines, ensuring your artwork is perfectly prepared for printing. Simply select your desired specifications – size, paper stock, color options, and quantity – and upload your print-ready file. You can then choose between an instant online proof or a manually reviewed PDF proof for added assurance.
Alternatively, our intuitive online design tool empowers you to create stunning postcards directly on our website. No prior graphic design experience or expensive software is necessary. Simply select a template that resonates with your vision and then personalize it with your own text, graphics, images, and backgrounds. This user-friendly platform makes professional post card printing accessible to everyone.
For those seeking a truly unique and personalized touch, we also provide access to professional designers through our affordable design service packages. Collaborate with experienced creatives to develop a completely custom postcard design that perfectly encapsulates your brand identity and message.
Professionally Designed Templates to Kickstart Your Postcard Project

Each printable postcard template is designed for effortless personalization, enabling you to maintain brand consistency across all your marketing materials.
Postcard Size Options to Suit Every Need
The most commonly chosen postcard sizes include 4″ x 6″, 5″ x 7″, 6″ x 9″, and 8.5″ x 5.5″. We also offer smaller postcard sizes, ideal for maximizing your marketing budget, and larger sizes, providing ample space for more detailed advertising of your products and services. For those interested in Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) campaigns, EDDM-eligible postcard sizes are clearly indicated on our order form, simplifying your direct mail marketing efforts.
File Specifications for Optimal Post Card Printing
To ensure the highest quality print results, we accept a wide range of file formats, including TIF, TIFF, EPS, AI, PSD, BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, and PDF. For PSD, PDF, and AI files, please ensure they are in CMYK mode for accurate color reproduction. We recommend a file resolution of 300 to 350 dpi for crisp, clear images. The maximum file upload size is 75 megabytes per file, accommodating even detailed and graphic-rich designs.
Understanding Safe Zone, Trim Line, and Bleed for Postcards
The Safe Zone is the crucial area within your postcard design where all essential elements – text, images, logos – should be positioned to prevent them from being trimmed off during the cutting process. The Bleed area extends beyond the trim line and is intentionally trimmed off. It ensures that your graphics and colors extend seamlessly to the very edge of your printed postcards, eliminating any unwanted white borders. We require a 0.1″ bleed for all postcard files to guarantee professional edge-to-edge printing.
Premium Paper Stocks and Finishes for Lasting Impressions
Choose from a diverse selection of paper stocks with varying thicknesses and coating options to achieve your desired look and feel. Our 14 pt. paper stock is a popular choice, available in both uncoated and glossy finishes. For an exceptionally premium option, explore our Trifecta Ultimate collection, featuring ultra-thick, triple-layer stocks ranging from 24 pt. to 38 pt. thickness.
For postcards that are both durable and visually striking, our 14 pt. glossy cover stock is a customer favorite. If you prefer a more subtle, vintage aesthetic, consider our 14 pt. uncoated paper or our 16 pt. matte cover stock. For luxurious postcards or invitations that exude sophistication, our ultra-thick Trifecta stocks, with either a velvety soft-touch or textured canvas finish, provide an unparalleled tactile and visual experience.
Production and Turnaround Times for Post Card Printing
The standard production time for custom post card printing is typically 2 to 6 business days, depending on the paper stock you select. Production commences the business day following your order approval and payment processing. Orders approved and paid for by 9:00 AM PT / 11:00 AM CT / 12:00 PM ET will begin production on the same day.
