Postcards have fallen somewhat out of vogue since email replaced snail mail. But the French startup Fizzer is revamping postcards for the digital age.

The concept of Fizzer is simple: 鈥淭o turn easily your best moments into postcards鈥�. The app allows users to personalise their holiday snaps by choosing from a number of different templates and designs. Cards can feature up to four pictures.

Postcards have a 300 character limit and cost around 鈧�2.40 to send, which includes the card itself and the postage fee. The app is easy to use. Customers simply upload pictures, add a note and address, and the studio takes care of the printing and mailing.

Three friends launched the venture in 2014. The work is done in a studio in Dives-sur-Mer in Calvados. Demand has increased this summer, with between 15,000 and 50,000 postcards handled every day.
