QuantumDigital
QuantumDigital is an online direct-mail service for designing, proving, printing, and sending postcards. Customers can upload a design or use free templates, then upload their own mailing list or use QuantumDigital’s verified U.S. national residential list. Campaigns can be scheduled weekly, monthly, or quarterly and targeted around listed properties or customer contacts. The company says postcards can enter the mail stream the next business day, with the same turnaround stated for API orders. Its APIs support USPS navigation, national consumer lists, uploaded designs or lists, and shipping small-order marketing materials. Measurement and personalization options include Intelligent Mail barcodes, QR codes, SMS marketing, personalized landing pages, coupon codes, and variable data. API pricing is $0.10 for Print / Ship API, minimum 20 pieces, and $0.85 for Direct Mail API, minimum one piece. EDDM formats are $35.00, $40.00, or $49, starting at 25,000+ pieces.
