Distance shouldn't break a family connection
Virginia has over 25,000 people in its state correctional system. Every one of them has someone on the outside who loves them. Research is clear: consistent family contact during incarceration leads to better outcomes when people come home. A postcard isn't just a nice gesture. It's an investment in your family's future.
Virginia photocopies all incoming personal mail and delivers it to residents. Your Flikshop arrives as a real, physical copy your loved one can hold, read again, and keep. The words you write travel all the way. High-resolution printing ensures even in photocopy form, your message is clear and your image is recognizable.
Flikshop is approved by the Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC).
Real Photos. Real Connections.
Flikshop Products Delivered to Virginia Facilities
Every Flikshop is a real printed photo on cardstock, mailed directly from our secure facility to your loved one's Virginia institution. Flikshop Postcards are printed at high resolution with bold, high contrast output specifically designed to still look sharp and clear after going through the photocopy process.
Virginia's VADOC photocopy all incoming personal mail and deliver the copies to residents.
One thing worth knowing: Virginia's photocopies are black and white. That means your Flikshop arrives as a B&W copy rather than in full color. The faces, the expressions, the people they still come through. The connection still lands. We print high contrast specifically to maximize how well your photo reproduces.
Virginia also accepts letters alongside postcards. You can write more when you need to and we'll make sure it gets there in the right format to pass the mailroom.
Pricing: 1 Flikshop Credit per Postcard
No subscriptions. No gimmicks.
KNOW THE RULES
Our photos are delivered to thousands of facilities nationwide
Please understand the Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) Mail Policy Rules. Knowing these rules ensures your Flikshop reaches your loved one without delay or rejection.
All incoming personal mail at Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) facilities is photocopied in black and white. Only the photocopies are delivered to residents — originals, including photos, are shredded after copying. A maximum of three 8.5"×11" pages (front and back) are delivered per mailing, including the envelope copy as one of those pages. Flikshop Postcards are designed to maximize sharpness and contrast so the photocopy your loved one receives is as clear and legible as possible. Full VADOC mail policy at vadoc.virginia.gov. Questions? Email Flikshop at info@flikshop.com.
-
Personal mail is photocopied. Virginia facilities photocopy incoming personal mail before it is delivered. Originals, including photos, are not returned. Flikshop uses high-contrast printing to help your photos and messages remain clear after photocopying.
-
Keep mail within the page limit. Virginia allows up to three 8.5" × 11" pages per mailing, including the photocopy of the envelope. Flikshop Postcards count as one page, making it easy to stay within the limit.
-
Photos are welcome. Photos are allowed as long as they do not contain nudity, explicit content, or other prohibited material. Flikshop reviews images before printing to help prevent delivery issues.
-
Include complete recipient information. Be sure to provide your loved one's full name, 7-digit VADOC ID number, and complete facility name. Flikshop formats every Virginia address correctly during checkout.
-
No stamps or prohibited enclosures. Do not include cash, checks, money orders, prepaid envelopes, or adhesive postage stamps. Flikshop uses compliant metered postage on every postcard.
-
Letters and postcards are accepted. Both postcards and letters are accepted and processed through Virginia's personal mail system, giving you multiple ways to stay connected with your loved one.
-
Legal mail follows different procedures. Legal correspondence must be sent through a separate process and is handled differently from personal mail.
-
Why families choose Flikshop. Every Virginia order is prepared to meet VADOC mailing requirements, helping your photos and messages reach your loved one with confidence. If your postcard doesn't arrive, we'll resend it at no additional cost.
Mail rules can vary by individual facility within VADOC. We recommend confirming your specific facility's rules. Flikshop customer service is available at info@flikshop.com.
