Common Questions About Postcards
What is the standard postcard size?
Standard postcard size is 4"x6" (USPS standard for regular postage) or 5"x7" (requires letter postage). Custom sizes are available, but may affect mailing costs.
Can postcards be used for direct mail?
Yes, standard 4"x6" postcards are perfect for direct mail campaigns and qualify for standard postcard postage rates, making them cost-effective for bulk mailing.
What paper stock is used for postcards?
We use durable card stock (typically 14pt or 16pt) that stands up to mailing and handling. This ensures your postcards arrive in good condition.
