When your marketing message needs to stand out, you need a format that captures attention immediately. The 4 x 9 postcard is an ideal choice for businesses that want tall, eye-catching print marketing collateral designed for direct mail, retail displays, and promotional handouts. This unique format offers more vertical space than standard postcards, allowing you to present your message in a clear, sequential layout.

At Worlds Cheapest Direct Mail Printing, we offer professionally printed 4 x 9 postcards and rack cards with premium cardstock, vibrant full color printing, and customization options that help you communicate your brand message with impact. Whether you're sending them via direct mail, placing them in brochure racks, or handing them out at events, these tall postcards are designed to deliver results.

Why 4 x 9 Postcards Work for Your Campaigns

The 4 x 9 size stands out because it breaks away from traditional postcard shapes, giving you a slim, elongated canvas to showcase your offer. The vertical orientation naturally guides the reader's eye from top to bottom, making it easier to structure your message logically and effectively.

This format is particularly useful for businesses that need to present a sequence of information-such as steps, features, or benefits-without overwhelming the audience. It's perfect for telling a story, explaining a process, or outlining services in a way that feels organized and engaging.

Professional Printing That Elevates Your Brand

Your marketing materials reflect your brand's values and quality. That's why our 4 x 9 postcards are printed on high-quality cardstock with advanced printing technology that ensures true-to-life colors and crisp text. You can choose from a variety of finishes, including gloss for vibrant impact and matte for a refined, sophisticated appearance.

  • Premium thick cardstock for durability
  • Full color printing on one or both sides
  • Gloss, matte, or UV coatings available
  • Bulk pricing for cost savings

Marketing Uses for 4 x 9 Postcards

The unique shape and size of 4 x 9 postcards make them highly versatile. Here are a few ways businesses use them:

  • Direct Mail Campaigns: Tall postcards are ideal for mailing lists and targeted mailers.
  • EDDM Marketing: When paired with compliant sizes, 4 x 9 cards can reinforce EDDM campaigns.
  • Rack Card Displays: Perfect fit for brochure racks, counter displays, and visitor centers.
  • Menus & Promotions: Restaurants and cafes often use vertical postcards for menus or specials.
  • Service Listings: Service providers can feature their offerings clearly and professionally.

Integrating With USPS EDDM

USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) is a popular way to reach broad audiences without needing a mailing list. While EDDM has specific postcard size requirements, 4 x 9 postcards can be integrated into your overall direct mail strategy to reinforce messaging and foster recognition. Use larger EDDM formats to secure saturation delivery, and complement them with 4 x 9 postcards to follow up with visual consistency.

For EDDM compliant postcard templates and design guidelines, visit our EDDM printing services page to select the right format for your goals.

Design Tips to Maximize Response

The design of your postcard directly affects engagement and response rates. Follow these best practices:

  • Strong Headline: Your headline should grab attention and communicate value in a few words.
  • Clear Call to Action: Encourage immediate action, such as "Order Now," "Call Today," or "Visit Us."
  • Readable Fonts: Use legible typeface sizes and contrast for readability at a glance.
  • Effective Visuals: High-quality images or graphics help illustrate your offer.
  • Whitespace Matters: Balance text and visuals for an uncluttered layout.

Bulk Printing for Maximum Value

Whether you need hundreds or thousands of postcards, bulk printing helps reduce cost per unit and ensures you always have materials ready for your next marketing push. Our pricing is competitive, and our turnaround times are fast, so you can keep campaigns moving without delay.

What Is Every Door Direct Mail or EDDM?

FAQ

EDDM is like any standard email, with the difference that EDDM does not require any name and address as the standard mail requires. In place of address and name, every door direct mail is addressed to every “POSTAL CUSTOMER” on a specified mail carrier’s route. This is also known as saturation mailing and the cost to mails is very low as compared to standard mail.

If your requirements are less than 5000 EDDM mailpieces per day per post office, then EDDM is for you. You must deposit your mail pieces at the local post office to receive the low postage rates.

Before deciding to start your EDDM campaign, make sure that the selected mailing route meet your target requirements

  • Your Direct Mail Piece must be Standard Flats only.
  • You can send up to 5,000 direct mailpieces per day per ZIP code.

USPS uses a group of addresses in a specified area which is called a carrier route. One or several carrier routes can fall into one zip code depending on whether the region is urban or rural.

USPS require at least 200 direct mail pieces per day per zip code.

From the time your eddm mailer is received at the local post office, it time to post office 7 to 14 days to deliver. So you can assume that it will take a week to few weeks depending on the quantity and route selected.

USPS will charge you a small postage fee per piece online or when you drop your direct mail pieces at the post office. This payment you pay is known as permit imprint indicia and is required for all EDDM mailpieces.

After you order with us, you will receive an invoice stating all that you have ordered and the amount paid. After that, we will assign one of our graphic designer to your job. If you have uploaded an artwork then we will show you the print-ready files. If you assign us the job to design your eddm mail pieces then we will design it from scratch and email you. We can show you 2-3 version and you can send feedback to our designer. Finally, after you finalize the design we send you the final proof before printing. We will involve you at every step of the design and print process. Nothing goes to printing prior to your final approval.

USPS offers many every door direct mail formats like standard flat mail, periodicals, irregular parcels. These varying sizes give you the flexibility to select options according to your needs. You can include coupons, menus, in-depth product story, sales announcement, event calendar and more.

  • Retailers: Department stores, sporting goods shops, electronics stores, Auto dealers, restaurants, furniture stores, supermarkets and more.
  • Service-based businesses: Real estate firms, Banks, insurance agencies, home-improvement companies,health-related providers, and more.

Currently, USPS charges 19.12¢ per EDDM piece independent of the size of the mailer as long as you comply with the size specification laid down by USPS.

To select a specific carrier route you can go to the USPS website at http:/eddm.usps.com or by clicking here. You can select zip code, city or addresses to target your campaign and map out carrier route using easy tools available at the website.

USPS EDDM service let you choose from residential or business addresses. So you can exclude businesses from your mailing list, now your direct mail pieces will be delivered to only residential addresses on the carrier route selected.

Though you can print the direct mail pieces yourself at your home, we don’t suggest that you try to print these on your home printer because the paper stock demanded is too viscous. And the cost of printing at a home printer will be high as compared to if it were printed by a commercial printer. Moreover, we are offering discounted print rates to help customers like you take advantage of this new direct mail program from USPS.
