We print all business cards in high-quality full colour using the CMYK process. Pantone printing isn’t available, but CMYK allows for a wide and vibrant colour range suitable for most designs.

That depends on a couple of factors.

You may have designed in RGB and then converted to CMYK when uploading for print. You may have chosen an uncoated stock, which often can result in deeper colours as the ink absorbs really well into the fibres. You may have added a lamination that is essentially an overlay, which can slightly change the printed colours.

As long as you choose an uncoated stock without lamination, yes, you can.

Yes please. As a guideline, we recommend:

• Please allow a 3mm bleed on all sides

• Supply as a CMYK PDF

• All fonts must be outlined or embedded

• Resolution must be 300 dpi.

• 3mm safe zone/margin - keep important information away from the edges.

• Download our templates below to assist with setting up your artwork.

Production begins as soon as your order is confirmed and any artwork is approved. We strive to meet the estimated delivery timeframe provided; however, please note that occasional delays may occur due to unforeseen circumstances with couriers, which are beyond our control.

Yes, all you have to do differently is set your artwork to 55 × 85mm (portrait), add 3mm bleed (total 61 × 91mm), use CMYK at 300dpi, keep text 3mm from edges, then rotate the first page 90 degrees anti-clockwise and 2nd page 90 degrees counter clockwise and export as a 2-page PDF.

Our most popular quantities tend to be 250, 500 or 1000 but you can buy as few as 50 or as many as 50,000.  

So many things, you just have to think small to find those big marketing ideas. We see them used a lot as loyalty cards, for jewellery packaging and as thank you notes that businesses often drop in with their orders. Say more using less by imagining what you might want to pop on a flyer or postcard and see if you can make an impact in a succinct way using a business card instead. Need help with a design mock up? We’ve got those too, and for anything else our friendly Customer Success team are on hand just a call away.

We sure do, in fact, we offer a wide range of foil colours to choose from!

With such a large number of materials and styles to choose from, creating your business cards can take a bit of thought. From classic and folded business cards, right through to luxury foil business cards, it’s worth doing your homework before you decide on what impression you want to make.

If you’re just looking to get your business started, a classic business card would be your best option, but if you’re an established wedding planner or luxury spa owner a pearl paper stock would compliment your brand perfectly. If you’re not quite sure, check out our handy guide for inspiration.
