Finish Options

Choose a finish that matches your brand — or combine treatments for a card that stands out in any stack.

Matte Lamination

Most popular

Smooth, non-reflective coating. Easy to write on and holds up well in a wallet. Professional and understated — works on virtually any design.

Glossy Lamination

Vivid color

High-shine coating that makes colors pop. Great for photography, bold brand colors, or any design that benefits from contrast and saturation.

Soft-Touch Lamination

Tactile premium

Velvety, matte-but-luxurious finish. Creates a tactile impression that makes a card feel more expensive than it is — hard to put down.

Foil Stamping

Gold or silver

Metallic foil applied to logos, names, or accent lines. Adds immediate visual prestige — especially effective on dark card stock.

Spot UV Coating

High contrast

High-gloss varnish applied over selected areas of matte lamination. The contrast between matte and glossy is subtle and sophisticated.

Metallic Cardstock

Base stock

Shimmery base stock that reflects ambient light. Premium look without additional finishing costs — often the most cost-effective premium option.

Painted Edges

Bold detail

A bold color applied to the card edge, visible when the card is held from the side. A small detail that creates a lasting impression.

How to Order Business Cards

Three steps from file to finished cards in your hands.

01

Submit Your File or Request a Design

Send a print-ready PDF (300 DPI, CMYK, 0.125″ bleed on all sides) or ask our design team to create artwork from scratch. We review every file before it goes to press.

02

Choose Stock, Finish & Quantity

Select your paper weight, finishing treatment, and quantity. We'll confirm what's available for your run size and send pricing before we proceed.

03

Print, Cut & Quality-Check

Cards are printed on a calibrated press, cut to exact size, and inspected for color accuracy and clean edges. Standard turnaround is 3–5 business days; rush options are available.

Don't have a print-ready file? Our in-house design team creates business card artwork from scratch — logos, layouts, and typography. We send a digital proof before printing anything. Ask about design help or call us at (205) 983-8040.

Business Card Printing — FAQs

What size do you print business cards, and can I order a custom size?

Standard business cards are 3.5″ × 2″. We also print square cards, mini cards, and other custom dimensions. Contact us before submitting your file if you're working with a non-standard size so we can confirm the setup and bleed requirements.

What finish options are available?

We offer matte, glossy, and soft-touch lamination on 80# white cover stock; foil stamping in silver and gold; spot UV coating for selective high-gloss highlights; painted-edge treatment for a bold colored edge; and metallic cardstock. Some combinations are possible — ask when you request a quote.

What file format should I submit?

We prefer print-ready PDFs at 300 DPI or higher, in CMYK color mode, with 0.125″ bleed on all four sides and all important content at least 0.125″ inside the trim line. If your file is in RGB or uses low-resolution images, we'll flag it before printing.

What is the minimum order quantity?

We don't require large minimums. Whether you need 50 cards or 5,000, we can accommodate. Pricing scales with quantity, so larger orders cost significantly less per card — but we're comfortable with short runs for new businesses, rebrands, or proofing a new design.

Can I pick up my business cards locally instead of having them shipped?

Yes — we're in Homewood, just outside Birmingham. Local pickup means no shipping wait, no risk of damage in transit, and no extra cost. For urgent orders, same-day or next-day pickup may be available — contact us directly to check availability.
