https://www.ottopost.com/ - a simple Instagram postcard printing service.

I created it as an alternative to the many printing services that require a dedicated app. OttoPost doesn't require an app since it just searches for your new Instagram photos and prints automatically (that's configurable).

Not exactly world-changing, but definitely something hands-off at this point and better than nothing :)

Heavy Instagram user here. This is cool.

I really like the price point, but for a 99¢ postcard including postage, do you actually make any money?

Thanks! The margins are pretty tight at the moment, but I still make a little. Margins would improve with more volume as I can get better bulk rates.

Have you seen Flag [1]? It was a successful Kickstarter [2] for making photo prints free by supporting them with advertising on the back. Might be something worth looking into.
