MyPostcard vs Postable

MyPostcard lets users design printed postcards and cards online or in its iOS and Android apps, then prints and mails them to recipients worldwide. Users can add their own photos and text or select from a design store with more than 70,000 designs. Other products include card sets, photo prints, frames, audio cards, and video cards; an audio card can carry a voice message or song. Photos can come from a computer or phone, Instagram, or Facebook, and must be at least one megapixel and no larger than 10 MB. Postcard greetings allow up to 450 characters, with the available count varying by font and size. Standard Postcard costs €3.49, paid once, shipping included. Other listed prices include Premium Postcard at €3.99, paid once and Postcard XL at €6.49, paid once, both with shipping included. Delivery estimates are 3–5 business days in the USA, 1–2 in Germany, and up to 14 business days elsewhere. Drafts save automatically on iOS; Android users must save manually, while the web version has a Save draft control. The service offers a searchable FAQ and support by email or app ticket for missing or late orders.

Postable is a web service that prints, addresses, stamps, and mails physical greeting cards. Customers can choose a design, customize photos, messages, and fonts, or upload an image. Contacts can submit their details through a personal link, or users can import CSV and Excel files or enter addresses manually. The online address book is free even without card purchases. Carbon Copy sends one message to multiple contacts and personalizes each card with the recipient's name. Users can schedule birthday cards for the year in advance and anniversary cards for a chosen date. Business features include contact imports, logo-branded cards, volume discounts, and a dedicated account representative. Postable says its cards are printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper. Cards usually arrive in about a week, but delivery is not guaranteed; tracking shows locations and estimated dates, while USPS does not scan final delivery. Listed card rates are $5.99 plus stamp for one card, $5.29 each plus stamp for 2–19 cards, and $4.59 each plus stamp for 20 or more. The site also lists the paid service from $2.24.
