Prompting users to enter payment information over unsecured HTTP...smart.

Wasn&#x27;t there a company that started doing Instagram postcard mailing, and eventually offered the API as well they were using?

Nice! As a heavy user of postagram .. (#1 grandson.. Check) An iOS app that makes this appear in the print options please then I can..: login to a central site afterwards and choose the content I want to print -&gt; snail mail it to destination<p>Additionally you could Offer printers to local stores, I could print to my bodega&#x2F;gas station&#x2F;Amazon parcel drop&#x2F;staples etc (Pickup the job via qr code displayed on phone&#x2F;Apple Pay) for things I need now

For some reason, the https redirect broke - working on fixing it. Rest assured, <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;enveloupe.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;new" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;enveloupe.com&#x2F;api&#x2F;new</a> works perfectly.

Looks cool! This should totally exist and be independent of any given country&#x27;s postal system. Perhaps prepend a &quot;SHOW HN: &quot;

If I were you I&#x27;d put link to API docs in top navigation. If you are targeting to devs, that&#x27;s the first thing they look for.

Payment info over HTTP? Ehhh, no thanks.

I&#x27;m looking for something like that that&#x27;s the best fit for singleton mailings. I want to send one letter at a time. The pricing here isn&#x27;t unreasonable for that ($1.09), but it seems geared for bulk mailings? Any suggestions?

Plenty of printing companies have APIs already (and much lower prices).

Looks interesting, though I must ask - where exactly is the API? Or are we to hook up directly to the HTML form endpoint?

I&#x27;d like to see the same service for the UK.
