What Are the Best Business Card Design Practices
Several guidelines need to be followed as you create your own custom business cards. You can hire a professional designer to make sure all the basic rules are covered. However, an ambitious entrepreneur shouldn’t be afraid to think out of the box.
Here are a few rules you can follow as you think about what to put on a business card.
- Short, sweet, and simple. A card provides limited space to make a good and lasting impression. Only show the most important contact information and make the text readable. Your logo should stand out but not take up all the space.
- Keep your clients in mind. While a standard business card is easy to give out and receive, the design itself should showcase what you can do. Create a look that appeals to your customers.
- Take calculated risks. Whether you’re an industry veteran or a start up success, your company can’t risk fading into the background. Add an extra feature such as an embossed text or pick your own custom shape.

Standard Business Cards Q&A
For our fastest printing time select “1 business day.”
To find out when your business cards will arrive, input your ZIP code after selecting “Estimate Shipping Cost and Delivery Date” on our online calculator.
The business card design should be placed within three lines that guide how the material is cut. Our available layout templates already include these lines. But those who want to start from scratch need to create a design within the following standard guidelines:
- Safety Line is placed around the actual business card design, particularly your logo, contact information, etc.
- Trim Area is the area between the bleed line and safety line. This provides additional room for cutting the business card.
- Bleed Line refers to the edge of your business card file. The background of your design should go all the way up to this area to prevent the appearance of a white border.
Shrink wrapping seals your bulk order in a clear plastic film. It protects the business cards during shipping and storage, while also organizing your items in specific quantities.
Yes, you can add special finishing to your custom business cards. You can choose from foil stamping, embossing, and spot UV treatments. We also offer laminates such as silk and velvet.
Yes. The more business cards you print, the bigger the savings. The adjusted cost per piece is automatically calculated when you make your quantity selection in the order calculator on every product page. Ordering even more? Contact us for a custom quote.

Customer Questions
This would be doable but you would need to contact our Custom Department for a formal quote.
Yes. When you type in your specifications in the Configure and Price area, under "Printed Side", you need to select "Front and Back". That will signal our system to allow you to upload two different files for each side. However, you can also submit just one file with two slides as we have live Graphic Specialists to check your file.
The way our process and pricing points are set up is we charge one design per quantity. So any tweak to the design will count as a separate job. However, we have encountered similar requests. It is not going to be a variable data printing job but more on using our Design Team to do the type setting for each set of busines scards. This will need to be coordinated with Custom Department so please give us a call and speak to one of our representatives so they can review your requirements and provide a quote.
We can use pantone colors but this will need to be handled by our Custom Department. Please give us a call and request for a Custom Representative.
You can definitely upload your artwork in full bleed so we can make sure that no important elements will be compromised during the cutting process and this would also eliminate the appearance of white border along the edges of the final product. The artwork needs to be built to the final trim size plus 1/8″ bleed on each side. Also, when generating the file into the proper format, do not use any crop or printer marks as these will increase the dimensions of the design file.
We can also send you a digital proof for your to see how it's going to look like before we send it to press.
Should you want to receive a proof, kindly choose the "Wait - I want to receive and approve a free PDF proof."
