Which paper are postcards printed on?

We print on 350gsm silk. This is a thick, card-like paper with a smooth finish.

Will my postcard be shiny?

We’ll apply a gloss lamination to side one of your design, leaving the other side unlaminated so you can write on it.

When will they be delivered?

Postcard orders approved by 6:30pm will be dispatched for delivery the next working day. Delivery takes a further working day. For example, if you approved your order by 6:30pm on a Monday, we’d dispatch your order on Tuesday and it’d be delivered on Wednesday.

How do I upload my design?

When you add your postcards to your basket, you’ll be prompted to upload your artwork. Or, if you want to continue shopping, you can upload your artwork in your basket at a later time.
