What people are saying

  • “I’ve been sending postcards back and forth with some long distance friends and I genuinely forgot how fun it is to get something in the mail that isn’t a bill lol”
    Steven G.
  • “My parents love my postcards and I never would have done it without Familyletter, I don’t think I have ever even bought a stamp before. Love it and will keep using them!”
    Tricia M.
  • “I visited my grandparents last week and it was awesome to see their fridge covered with my postcards! They seem to really appreciate them”
    Eric S.
  • “I send a few postcards a month to my buddies from college, it’s kind of like a monthly time capsule”
    Elijah P.
  • “I sent one to my best friend after she moved across the country and now we’re obsessed. We talk all the time but getting real pics is totally different.”
    Georgia K.
  • “This is such a good “thinking of you” gift, it feels way more intentional than sending a text”
    Alex U.
  • “My boyfriend and I are long distance and this hits completely different than texting pictures. We already FaceTime constantly so having an actual picture of him on my desk feels less digital.”

FAQs

How does FamilyLetter work?

Add up to four photos, write your message and pick a font. You see the finished postcard, front and back, as you build it. Choose how many to send, check out, and then tell us where each one goes. We print it and mail it for you.

What exactly do I get?

A real 4×6 photo postcard, printed in full color. Your photos cover the front edge to edge, and your message is printed on the back in the font you picked. We address it, add the postage and mail it straight to the person you're sending it to.

Can ChatGPT or Claude make the postcard with me?

Yes. FamilyLetter is built so an AI assistant can make the postcard with you: it writes your message, picks the font and stickers, and gives you a link; you add your photos and we print and mail it. Assistants connected to FamilyLetter can also build and preview the whole card in the chat. See familyletter.io/make-a-postcard-with-chatgpt for how.

How long does it take to make one?

About a minute for one postcard. If you're making several different cards, give yourself a few minutes more.

Can I preview and approve it before it's printed?

Yes. The preview is drawn to the real print layout, so what you see is what gets printed. Nothing is printed until you've checked out. The space for the address and postage is kept clear for the post office, so nothing you add ever gets covered.

Do I need an account or app?

No. You make the whole card here in your browser, with no app to download and no sign-up to see the preview. The person you send it to doesn't need anything either. It just shows up in their mailbox.

How good is the print quality?

Your photos are printed in rich, full color on thick 4×6 card stock with a glossy finish. Everyday phone photos look great. Pick ones with good light and faces that are easy to see.

What does shipping cost?

Nothing. Every order ships free, even a single postcard. We add the stamp and mail it, so there's nothing to buy and nothing to take to the post office.

How long does delivery take?

Usually 5 to 10 business days from your order to their mailbox. We print within one to two business days, then it travels by USPS First-Class Mail. We can't guarantee a delivery date, and it can take a little longer when orders are high or during the holidays.

What if I'm not happy with it?

Tell us within 30 days of delivery and we'll reprint it or refund it, your choice. Nothing to send back. Email support@familyletter.io and tell us which card it was.

What if it gets lost or damaged?

We'll print it and mail it again for free. Email support@familyletter.io within 60 days and tell us which card it was.

Are my photos private?

Yes. Your photos and message are used only to make and mail your postcard. We never sell them, never use them in ads and never use them to train AI. They're kept in private storage and shared only with our printer, so it can print your card. You can email us any time to have them deleted.

How does the Postcard Club work?

It's $10 a month, or $48 a year (60% off monthly), and it renews until you cancel. While you're a member every postcard is $1.49, with printing, postage and shipping included, no minimum, to any US address. Your addresses are saved, so sending again takes a few taps.

Can I cancel the Club?

Yes, anytime from your profile. Cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep member prices until the end of the month or year you paid for. The membership fee is non-refundable once a billing period starts.
