Make every introduction easier to remember. Custom business cards put your name, your brand, and your next connection directly into someone’s hands, whether you’re meeting a potential client, including a card with an order, or keeping your business within reach at the front counter.
Create a look that feels right for your business with full-color printing, seven sizes, and a wide selection of papers and finishes. Choose classic 3.5" x 2" cards for a familiar, practical format, or explore square, slim, and mini sizes for a different presentation. Gloss brings shine to colorful artwork and photography, matte offers a more understated appearance, and uncoated options give you a surface suited for handwritten details.
From lighter cover stocks to substantial 18pt options, you can choose a card that fits your budget and the impression you want to make. Finish your design with square or rounded corners, or add glossy spot UV accents to selected details on eligible 16pt matte cards.
Use the front for a memorable introduction and the back for information that encourages the next step: your services, a booking QR code, a referral offer, or a reason to visit again. These versatile cards also work as appointment reminders, loyalty cards, product care cards, and package inserts.
Every file is checked by a real person before printing, and a free digital proof is available on request, giving you extra confidence before your cards go into production.

Upload your full-color print artwork plus a separate UV mask for each side receiving spot UV. Use solid black (C: 0, M: 0, Y: 0, K: 100) for areas receiving UV; white means no UV. Do not use gray, gradients, or transparency in the mask. Keep the print and mask files the same size, with matching orientation and placement. Label files clearly: Print Front, Print Back, UV Front, UV Back, as applicable.
The top left and bottom right corners are rounded.
For a classic business card, start with 14pt or choose 16pt for a thicker feel. Select 18pt for extra thickness, or 100lb cover for a lighter card. Gloss adds shine, while matte offers a more understated look. Satin offers a smooth finish with a soft, subtle sheen, while light-gloss aqueous adds a gentle shine and helps protect the printed surface.
3.5" x 2" standard is a practical starting point, with room for your logo and contact details in a familiar size that fits most business-card holders. For a different look, consider: 2" x 2" square, compact and well suited to simple designs, social handles, or a QR code; 2.5" x 2.5" square, with more space for photos, branding, and additional information; 3.5" x 1.5" or 3.5" x 1.75" slim, a sleek format for a logo and essential contact details; 3" x 2" mini, slightly shorter than standard, a compact card with familiar proportions; 3.375" x 2.125", slightly shorter and taller than standard for a subtle change in shape. Choose a size that keeps your text comfortably readable. If your design includes several contact details or a service list, standard or larger square cards give you more room.
A PDF at the finished size plus 1/16" bleed on every side, with text and logos kept 1/8" inside the cut line. JPG and PNG files at 300 dpi work too.
