The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (companies)/Notability (websites) requirements. Coverage is in passing, no in-depth review; pretty much the best source is this short write up in a Wired blog, and it is not impressive, nor that reliable (blog, after all). We are not a directory of random pages, and this one doesn't seem that notable. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 11:37, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Strong Keep Clearly passes general notability and the requirements of WP:WEB. There are a ton of sources (poorly formatted but obvious nonetheless) lurking in the page already like this New York Times article and there is another NYT profile this time exclusively about the company.

 * The first link just mentions the company in passing. It's a great source for notability of e-cards in general, because this is what the article is about. That it mentions this company in a side-story introduction is pretty much irrelevant. The second ref is better, but I wouldn't call it in-depth, plus it's half of a WP:INTERVIEW with its associated issues. Anything else you can find would help, it's a good start (but not enough to make me withdraw this nom yet).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:25, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Passes WP:WEB, especially given NYT coverage above. Brad  v  13:26, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
