Fill your card.Skip the busywork.

No. Save your mail routes and 9x12 Tools automatically finds, scores and ranks local businesses for your campaign. Work those leads here with contact details, outreach drafts, call outcomes and follow-ups. The queue shows who needs attention next, so there is no list to move between a scraper, spreadsheet and CRM. You still contact the businesses and sell the spots. Your first 10 leads are fully workable free; turning on payments unlocks the rest.

9x12 Tools includes your campaign website and real checkout, plus route-generated leads, outreach drafts, follow-ups, spot tracking, advertiser onboarding and proof approvals. Those pieces belong to the same campaign. Reservations update spot availability immediately; successful payments mark spots sold with the buyer and payment attached. Advertisers submit their own ad details through a private link, then review the proof you prepare. You do not have to connect separate tools or match an online payment to a spot by hand. Offline sales can still be recorded manually.

Yes. Create a campaign for your city, choose USPS mail routes, and the platform generates a ranked list of businesses to approach. Build and price the card, preview your campaign site, and work your first ten leads free. You still need to contact advertisers and sell the spots; a lead grade is a starting point, not a promise that a business will buy.

Nothing. You create an account, build the card, pick your routes and price your spots without entering a payment method. A plan only starts when you publish the campaign and turn on checkout — the point at which the site can actually take an advertiser's money.

A plan lets you publish a selling campaign, connect your domain and offer advertiser checkout and reservations. Turning on payments through Stripe unlocks the full prospect list. Plans start at $97/month. The subscription does not include printing, postage or Stripe processing fees.

They come from Google Places, searched by category against the routes you selected — so they are the real businesses operating in the area your card mails to, not a bought list. Each one is scored on review count, rating, whether it has a website and a phone number, and whether that category historically buys community card spots. The grade is a percentile within your own campaign's pool rather than an absolute bar: an A means 'call this one before the others', and the reason is printed on the card so you can disagree with it. We also read each business's own website once to find a contact email and their social profiles.

Yes, and you keep your domain — you point it at your new campaign site and it carries on working, so nothing you have printed or handed out goes dead.

Then one is created for you, and it is yours. Switching on payments hands you to Stripe's own onboarding, where you enter your business details and the bank account you want the money to land in. What comes out the other side is a full Stripe account in your name — not a sub-account of ours — with its own dashboard you can log into without us. If you already have a Stripe account, you connect that one instead and nothing about how you use it changes. You do not need to have taken a card payment before to run a card.

No, and that is not going to change. You keep whatever printer you already use — the card builder exports a print-ready file with bleed and safe zones handled, and the USPS paperwork for your routes prints alongside it. We intend to offer print and mail from inside the product eventually, so a sold-out campaign can order its own run without re-entering anything. That is on the roadmap rather than in the product today, and it will be an option rather than a requirement.

Yes. Each campaign keeps its own routes, mail date, card and money, and they all report into one dashboard. How many can be selling at once is the only thing your plan decides — and there is never a per-city fee.
