What is a postcard?
A postcard is a rectangular piece of thick paper or cardstock designed for writing and mailing without an envelope. Postcards are commonly used for sending short messages, greetings, or promotional materials. They typically feature an image or design on one side and space for a message, the recipient's address, and postage on the other side. Postcards can easily be given out at shows, events, or promotions, being an original advertising tool.
With Best Deal Print and Packaging, you can have custom-printed postcards that will not only represent and promote your brand, company, design and logo, but that will reach and interest your customers, help them remember you, while being a practical promotional tool.

When to use postcards?
- Marketing campaigns: Use postcards to promote special offers, new products, or events. They are cost-effective and can easily grab attention with bold visuals and concise messaging.
- Customer appreciation: Sending postcards to thank customers for their business or as a reminder for special events can create a personal connection and build loyalty.
- Direct mail campaigns: Postcards work well for targeted direct mail marketing, as they don’t require opening an envelope and are immediately visible.
- Event invitations: For businesses or personal events, postcards can serve as invitations that are quick and visually appealing.
- Appointment reminders: In industries like healthcare or beauty services, postcards are often used to remind clients of upcoming appointments or important deadlines.
- Holiday or seasonal greetings: Sending postcards during holidays is a simple way to maintain relationships with clients, friends, or family, showing you’re thinking of them.
- Real estate listings: Postcards are widely used in real estate to showcase new listings, recent sales, or open house announcements.
- Personal announcements: They are perfect for announcing life events like engagements, moving to a new home, or celebrating milestones like anniversaries or birthdays.

What are the best coatings for postcards?

Gloss Cover with Gloss AQ
The gloss coating will make every color and detail shine. It also protects the surface from fingerprints, scuffs, and rubs. AQ refers to “aqueous,” a clear, fast-drying water-based coating used to protect your postcard. It provides a high-gloss or matte surface that deters dirt and fingerprints.
Benefits: Enhances color vibrancy while protecting against fingerprints, scuffs, and dirt, with a fast-drying, water-based finish.

Matte Cover with Matte AQ
This surface provides an elegant finish to your postcard. Despite its subdued look, the surface is fairly resistant to scratches and scuffs.
Benefits: Delivers a refined, elegant appearance with resistance to scratches and scuffs for a professional finish.

Gloss Cover with UV
This particular coating has a higher reflective shine and adds more vibrancy to the entire design. It also resists damage from outdoor elements such as sunlight.
Benefits: Provides a high-shine, vibrant look with durable protection from sunlight and outdoor elements.
Which size is better for a postcard?
Even though we provide postcard sizes from 4”x 6” to 11” x 17”, here are our most popular sizes to use for your color-printed postcard projects.
- 4” x 6” is our handiest and most affordable size. Ideal for informing a big crowd about a brand offer such as discounts or time-sensitive promos.
- 5” x 7” is big enough to make a statement but still handy enough for a customer to read or even keep before they visit your store.
- 5.5 ” x 8.5” is perfect for postcard designs that balance text with images or infographics.
- 6” x 9” lets a striking image of your new store or product take the centerstage on a print postcards.
