Our standard business cards start at just $7.35 for 100 cards. It's easy and affordable to add extra elements such as double-sided printing, premium paper stocks, larger sizes or unique shapes.

We offer a variety of paper stocks with different thickness and coating options to choose from. Our 14 pt. paper stock is the most popular for business cards. It is sleek and durable, and you can add an optional UV gloss finish. Our Trifecta paper is our most luxurious stock and ranges between 24 to 38 pt. thickness. Recycled 100 lb. paper is our thinnest cover stock and best for cards that need to be produced in masses.

The durable 14 pt. gloss cover provides protection against stains and damage, making this a great default choice. For a softer, vintage-inspired appearance, we recommend either our 14 pt. uncoated paper or our premium 16 pt. matte cover stock. If you would like the ability to write on your business cards, make sure to print them on uncoated paper. Finally, if you are looking for impressive, high-end business cards, choose any one of our Trifecta paper stocks. These ultra thick stocks come with either a velvety, soft touch finish or a textured canvas finish.

We accept TIF, TIFF, EPS, AI, PSD, BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, and PDF files. PSD, PDF, and AI files should be in CMYK color mode to ensure accurate color output. The resolution of your files should be set to 300 to 350 dpi, unless stated otherwise.

Your Safe Zone is the area where all your elements (text, images, logos, etc) must be placed so that they are not cut off when the product is trimmed to the final size.

The Bleed is the part outside of the Safe Zone that gets trimmed off when the product is cut to its final size. Bleed is short for all the graphics on a product that will "bleed off the document" so that the color continues to the edge of your cards. Most of our business cards require that your files have a 0.1" bleed.

If you need help designing your cards (or just need a little inspiration), we offer a number of professionally-designed industry-specific templates that you can customize with your company name, logo, contact information and more. We carry online design templates specific to popular industries and professions such as real estate, photography, handyman, lawyer, and much more.

The design styles range from modern and trendy to professional and minimal. All of our printable design templates are specifically configured to be easily customized and personalized to match your brand's identity.

We offer two convenient ways to create your own business cards. If you are designing your own card, start by downloading our templates, as they have already been marked with the safe zone, trim, and bleed lines. Use this template to create your print-ready design file. Once you are ready to order, select the size, paper stock, color printing option, and quantity for your business cards, then upload your file. The maximum upload file size is 75 megabytes per file. You can choose either an instant screen proof or a manually processed PDF proof.

Our online design tool can help business owners create their own cards – no graphic designer or expensive software needed! You can use our Online Designer to design front-only or front-and-back business cards and can even choose between standard corners or round corners. You can edit text, upload graphics or images, and apply various backgrounds or clip art.

If you would like to work with a professional graphic designer on a completely unique and personal design, you also have the option of adding one of our affordable design service packages to your order.

There are many factors that go into determining the best fonts to use for your business cards, including your logo, company name, industry, and style of card. When it comes to the main text, use fonts that are simple, professional, and legible. Some business-card worthy fonts that we like are Helvetica (one of the most popular fonts in the world for a reason), Riesling (an elegant font that adds a European touch to any design), Gibson (clean and easy-to-read), Campton (geometric and contemporary), and Code (an elegant all-uppercase font).

At the minimum, your business cards should include your company name, first and last name, title, and preferred method of contact (phone number and/or email address). If applicable, include your physical address and website as well.

If you have room on the back of your business card or if you are ordering folded business cards, you may also want to include a list of services or products, photos, special offers or discounts, and fun personal or industry facts.

Our production (print) time for most business cards is 3 to 5 business days. The production time begins a day after you have approved your order and your payment is processed. If your order is approved and payment is processed by 9AM PT/ 11AM CT/ 12 PM ET, then the production time begins that day.

Depending on the shipping method you choose, shipping generally adds an additional 2 to 6 days to the turnaround time. If you need your business cards sooner, please upgrade to rush printing (not available for all paper stocks) and express or 2-day delivery.
