Standard corners tend to give cards a more traditional look – the clean 90-degree cuts feel classic and elegant. Our rounded corners typically pair well with card designs that feel more modern or softer in style.

Absolutely. It’s easy to turn your premium business cards into loyalty cards or appointment reminders for repeat customers. Create a card that looks (and feels) so good that your customers will want to keep them. You may even choose to add a referral incentive to the back of your card.

Yes. Our recycled cards are made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper.

No. Different paper stocks absorb ink differently, and this may affect how your design looks when it’s printed. We recommend you consider the following when selecting your paper:

● Is your design predominantly dark or light? If your design includes darker colours, consider a paper stock with a higher gsm or a coated paper – these options can boost the vibrancy of dark colours. If your design features lighter colours, linen or ridged paper stocks are good choices.

● Does your design feature all-over colour or simple lines and text? Once again, coated paper stocks are often a suitable choice for designs with a lot of colour because they can make colours appear more vivid and prevent ink from being absorbed too much by the paper. For simple lines and text, consider using cotton and recycled paper stocks for the best results.

Always remember to pick the paper that best suits your design and your general style.

Our special finishes are upgrades that add more visual interest to your card design. Our spot UV finish applies raised gloss to specific areas of your design, while our metallic finish provides a smooth and shiny accent. With the foil finish, your card will feature a raised and light-catching texture in gold or silver.

Please note that these finishes are applicable only to the front of your card design.
Plus, the foil and metallic finishes are available only on our customisable templates.

To create an eye-catching and effective business card, we recommend you keep the following three tips in mind:

• Use no more than 2 fonts. Too many text styles make a design look less professional and it’s harder to read and understand. Font size matters too. Keep headlines big and bold and don’t go below 10 points for your body copy – you want everyone to be able to read what you have to say.

• Stick to your brand colours to keep things consistent. Plus, make sure your text stands out from the background, so choose the font colour wisely.

• If you’re uploading a design, make sure it has a resolution of at least 300 DPI, for crisp printing.

• Remember, your printed design may vary from the digital version you edit. So, make sure to check the design proportions before placing the order, to avoid any distortion.

You can add several elements to your business card to make it informative and engaging:

• Logo
• Company name
• Tagline
• Your name and title
• Contact details
• Your address – website or physical store
• Social media handles
• A QR code
