SnapShot Postcard turns photos into printed postcards and handles printing, postage, and mailing. Users can choose an image from a device, take a new photo, or select a ready-to-use image. Cards come in 4×6 inch and 6×9 inch formats on thick, glossy stock. Orders can be created through the website without downloading an app, and the service is also listed for Android, iOS, and API access. It mails by First Class to US and international addresses and says orders are mailed within two business days. One mailing can reach up to 100 recipients. The FAQ recommends images of 1600×1200 pixels or better for print quality. An API can integrate printing and mailing with an application or device. The service is presented for travelers, families, seniors, birthdays, holidays, and thank-you notes. Premium membership costs $4.99 a month and includes one free credit monthly, no extra charge for large postcards, and cancellation at any time. Credits cost $1.19 to $3.49 per credit depending on quantity; US postcards use one credit and international postcards use two. Purchased credits expire after one year.
