postcard.com launches international click-to-Mail postcard and free E-Card Service

With exclusive pricing, shipping internationally is the same as domestic. For additional savings of orders over 100, the company will design, professionally print, and mail it at a cost of 1¢ more than international postage alone – 99¢ each.

Utilizing a site interface, users see an identical view of the actual card – along with accent tools letting them decorate their piece with fanciful color frames, unique styling effects, and text. When done creating, users "flip" the card over to reveal a blank message area for notes. Members then type the recipient’s address, or access their personal address books stored in Gmail, Yahoo!, AOL, Hotmail or Windows Live to auto populate the section. After completion, the postcard is mailed via first-class for $1.29, or sent as an e-card for free.

Photos are the most personal forms of expression – recording an emotion, place in time and feeling," said David Moyal, owner of postcard.com. "Sending these memorable moments both digitally and physically is vital in sharing these benchmark occasions with the people we care about most. With three years in development, we have streamlined our site and backend to produce the most affordable, convenient and reliable postcard mailing and contact management system seen yet." In addition to personal uses such as instant baby announcements, vacation postcards and event announcements; postcard.com has dual e-card and postcard options allow small business owners to build effective multi-tiered marketing campaigns. By easily uploading artwork, owners can create custom pieces using logos, and text that speak directly to their intended audience. With the option of bulk mailing, owners can then mail, post to their facebook wall and email the postcards in large quantities around the world with a few clicks.

Delivered via first class mail, the postcard is printed, addressed, stamped and mailed the same day. Using 1800 Postcards printing presses – a full-service G7 certified master printer based in New York City – the professionally printed postcard will be produced on a thick 14 pt glossy cardstock, and FSC certified paper, making it environmentally friendly.
