What is the best value postcard size to send?

While you can send a 4×6″ postcard with Neighbourhood Mail, which will be the cheapest to produce, it does not offer the best value.

Larger postcards will grab more attention and drive more campaign engagement, making them generate more ROI. We find the best size to send is a 5.5×8.5″ postcard due to its production costs being highly efficient and its impact being strong in a pile of flyers.

Who can I send to with PostNow?

You can send direct mail campaigns to essentially any household or business address in Canada. Since we have access to all the addresses that Canada Post can deliver to, the only people that can not be targeted are those that have added themselves to the “Do Not Mail” list for Canada Post.

You can target by individuals (with your own data only), or you can target by full postal code (ie. T6B 2M2) or by Neighbourhood Walk (average 300-500 households).

Are there any discounts for larger campaigns?

Yes, bulk orders typically receive lower per-unit pricing. Contact customer support for specific rates on large campaigns.

How much is Canada Post flyer delivery?

Flyer delivery falls under Canada Post Neighbourhood Mail. Prices were updated for all flyer mailings as of 2026. 

Neighbourhood Mail (also known as unaddressed ad mail) would cost $0.20 per piece, including transportation costs from Canada Post if it is under 6 x 12″ with a maximum thickness of 1 inch and a weight of <50g. Larger flyers, including magazine-style flyers like the Ikea Idea Books, are subject to “Oversized Neighbourhood Mail” rates.

Here’s how the standard $0.20 rate breaks down:

  • Postage Rate: $0.187 / piece
  • Transportation Fee: $0.013 / piece

A “Specified Delivery Start Date” can be added as a campaign option for an extra $0.011 / per piece. This guarantees that your flyer will not be delivered before a set date and is a great way to ensure you time your flyers for a specific sale/promotion.

What is the NCOA database?

NCOA stands for National Change of Address and is a special database that has the most up-to-date address info for people across Canada. We use this to check audience lists provided to us to ensure that addresses are correct and that people still live in the locations you are providing. This also removes people that may be deceased or moved out of your trade area.

We use this to remove bad names & addresses or to correct poorly formatted addresses to ensure delivery.
