How many forever stamps to mail a greeting card

The number of Forever Stamps needed to mail a greeting card depends on the weight and size of the card, as well as the destination zip code.

As of 2023, the current First-Class Mail rates for letters and cards are:

• 1 oz (standard letter size): $0.60
• 2 oz (standard letter size): $0.80
• 3 oz (standard letter size): $1.00

Greeting cards typically weigh between 1-3 ounces, depending on the size and material used.

Here are some general guidelines for the number of Forever Stamps needed to mail a greeting card:

• Small, lightweight cards (1 oz): 1 Forever Stamp
• Medium-sized cards (1.5 oz): 1-2 Forever Stamps
• Large, heavier cards (2-3 oz): 2-3 Forever Stamps

Keep in mind that these are general estimates, and the actual weight of your greeting card may vary. You can use a postal scale to determine the exact weight of your card and calculate the correct postage.

It's also important to note that Forever Stamps are valid for First-Class Mail Forever letters weighing up to 1 oz. If your card weighs more than 1 oz, you'll need to add additional postage or use a different type of stamp.

To be sure, you can always check with your local post office or use the USPS website's postage calculator to determine the correct postage for your greeting card.
