Print on demand postcards FAQs

Can you make money selling postcards?

The sky is the limit, and it can be very profitable depending on a few variables, such as if you already have an established ecommerce store or brand audience. Since postcard print on demand products are made to order, this model satisfies a demand for custom products while still remaining profitable. Because the products are made on demand, you only pay for what you sell.

How do you print and sell postcards?

Absolutely. We suggest using a top-selling platform like Etsy or Shopify to begin your ecommerce online store to print and sell custom postcards. Once you’ve made your ecommece store account, you can connect it to Gelato using our easy integrations and begin designing and selling your own customizable postcards online under a print on demand model. This means there’s no maintaining inventory or upfront costs. You only pay for what you sell.

What stock are postcards printed on?

At Gelato, we print on a variety of paper options. For example, we recommend using the semi-glossy or glossy options if you are to offer greeting cards with photos or images in them primarily. For text-heavy cards such as wedding invitations and thank you notes, we recommend matte paper, which is often used to create a more luxurious or professional feeling. Under each catalog page, we explain the paper materials and go over all the product details.

Can I make my own postcards?

Yes! Gelato is a beginner-friendly and easy-to-use platform that can be used to make print on demand postcards.
