Yes. After you’ve made your initial choices — size, paper stock, corners and quantity — you’ll be able to upload your finished design. We accept the following file formats: .jpg, .jpeg, .jfif, .bmp, .png, .gif, .heic, .svg, .pdf, .psd, .ai, .eps, .ait, .ppt, .pptx, .tif and .tiff.

Our glossy, matte and soft touch papers are coated on both sides, while natural uncoated, textured uncoated, kraft and recycled papers are not. You can write on any of these paper stocks, but we recommend our natural uncoated, textured uncoated, kraft or recycled options for the best effect.

The beauty of a well-designed postcard is that you can use it in a wide variety of ways. Some popular approaches include bag inserts, vouchers, street marketing handouts and more.

Spot UV printing is a finishing technique that highlights specific areas of your design, such as text or images, with a glossy, raised effect. Also known as embossed gloss, this method adds a tactile, eye-catching element that enhances the overall look and feel of your printed piece.

Spot UV can be applied only to premium matte paper using selected spot UV design templates. At the moment, it’s not possible to apply spot UV to custom uploaded designs.

Square corners tend to give postcards a more traditional look — the clean 90-degree cuts feel classic and elegant, and they’re a great option for street marketing or direct mail campaigns. Our rounded corners typically pair well with postcard designs that feel more modern or softer in style — and they’re a good option for package inserts.

Yes, here are a few things to keep in mind as you design:

Keep your design simple. Always remember that postcards are small, so a lot of complicated information can overwhelm their recipient. Identify the top few things you want a customer to know, and then focus on those points. Including a strong call to action — a website URL, phone number or address — gives people a way to learn more once they’ve become interested in what you have to say.

Stand out with photography or a logo. Odds are that your postcard will be competing for attention with other promotional pieces — in a letterbox, on a notice board or even in your own business. Bold colours, a high-quality image or your logo can help your postcard get noticed.

Create a consistent look. It’s easy to use your font choice, logo and colours to create a matching business look across other marketing products, like business cards, signage and more. With a few matching products, you’re well on your way to establishing a recognisable, professional brand.
