What kind of paper does a postcard need to be?
by Raki Wright | Last Updated December 30, 2015
In order to qualify for postcard rate postage (currently $0.28), the United States Postal Service requires small postcards (4 1/4″ x 6″ or less) to be made from paper that has a 7pt thickness or greater.
Large postcards (greater than 4 1/4″ x 6″) are required to be made from paper that has a 9pt thickness or greater. The Jumbo Postcards must be mailed at first-class postage (currently $0.44).
