Practical Advertising That Stays Visible
A standard paper postcard may be read once and set aside, but a postcard magnet can keep your message visible for much longer. Recipients can display it on a refrigerator, filing cabinet, locker, magnetic board, or another compatible metal surface, making it useful for information they may need repeatedly.
Custom Postcard Magnets are ideal for phone numbers, websites, QR codes, calendars, menus, sports schedules, appointment details, coupons, and service reminders. They combine the familiar space of a postcard with the practical value of a reusable indoor magnet.

High Gloss UV Coating
A High Gloss UV coating is applied to the printed front to create a polished, reflective finish. This coating helps:
-

Improve resistance to routine handling

Protect the printed surface

Make photographs and graphics stand out
Because the finished surface is glossy, it is generally unsuitable for writing or overprinting.

Rounded corners are not applicable to circle or oval shapes. Availability may vary by selected size, so confirm the option while configuring the order.
Keep borders, text, QR codes, logos, and other essential design elements safely inside the cutting area to accommodate the corner shape.
