Facebook Can Now Send Your Christmas Cards For You
Starting Wednesday, you will be able to send custom Christmas cards to any one of your Facebook friends without knowing their address.
A British company that currently sends custom postcards, Touchnote, is offering the service with a new app interface which is available on iOS, Android, and the web.
The service lets you pick any holiday card image, allows you to add an Instagram style filter, type a message and select a Facebook friend to send it to.
The company then takes care of the rest and looks up the address of the recipient. Users can send out batches of up to 100 at a bulk price of 99 cents or pence per card.
Touchnote assures that each card will be printed on high quality, heavy paper stock and put into premium envelopes.The cards should be delivered in 2-5 business days to anywhere in America, most of Europe and Australia.
Oded Ran, CEO of Touchnote says: “often times a Facebook message, email or text doesn’t quite cut it . . . We are changing the face of holiday cards forever.”
There is large competition in the online delivery service for postcards, such as Postagram but none of them offer specifically holiday cards, and none of them allow you to send in bulk.
What do you make of this service? Do you think you’ll be sending cards via Facebook?
