Professional business cards made simple

What Is Cheap Business Cards Printing Services

High-quality, affordable cards with free design & fast shipping.

When we say "cheap," we are referring to the price, not the product. By utilizing an efficient production method known as gang-run printing, we group multiple orders onto a single large print run.

This smart approach drastically reduces plate fees and setup costs, allowing us to pass those savings directly to you. The result? You receive the same premium cardstock and professional finishes used by high-end firms, but at a fraction of the traditional cost.

Our service offers premium features like 14pt and 16pt thick cardstock, vibrant full-color printing options, and versatile finishes—all while staying within a budget that works for startups, freelancers, and small businesses. Whether you need standard rectangle cards or unique custom shapes, our cheap business cards printing ensures you look professional without breaking the bank.

We offer both matte finish business cards for a sophisticated, non-reflective look, and glossy finish cards that make colors pop with a vibrant shine. Our custom business cards are perfect for corporate cards, networking cards, and professional use.

Who Should Choose Our Affordable Business Cards?

Affordable printing isn't just for those on a tight budget; it is a strategic choice for professionals who understand the value of volume.

Real Estate Agents: High-volume open houses require a large supply of cards. Our affordable bulk options ensure you never hesitate to hand out a card to a potential lead.
Freelancers & Creatives: Your card is your portfolio. Use our high-gloss finishes to make your photography pop, or choose a matte finish to let your typography speak for itself.
Startups: Launching a new venture requires maximizing every dollar. Our service gives you professional networking tools that help you look established from day one, without draining your startup capital.
Restaurants & Retail: Use them as loyalty cards, appointment reminders, or discount coupons for customers. Our same day business cards and rush business card printing options help you meet tight deadlines.

Paper Stock & Quality Comparison

The physical weight of your business card sets the tone for your brand before your client even reads your name. Choosing the right stock is about more than just thickness—it's about the impression you leave behind.

14pt Gloss Coated Cover (The Industry Standard)

Far from flimsy, our 14pt stock is our most popular choice because it balances durability with affordability. It carries a substantial, postcard-like feel that holds up to daily handling, making it perfect for high-volume networking events.

16pt Premium Cover (The Executive Choice)

For those looking to make a bolder statement, our 16pt option offers a rigid, ultra-premium stiffness. This extra thickness signals luxury and stability, making it the preferred choice for executives and luxury brands who want their cards to stand out in a stack.

18pt Ultra Thick Premium

Our thickest option available. This heavy-duty business card stock prevents bending and makes an immediate bold statement.

100lb Gloss Cover (Thinner)

A lighter, more flexible option often used for budget bulk handouts or folding business cards.

Professional Finishing Options & Customization

The finish of your card dictates how light—and people—interact with your design.

UV High Gloss: This coating does more than just shine; it makes your colors pop with vibrancy while adding a protective shield against scratches and friction. Available on front only or both sides.
Matte Finish: If you prefer a sophisticated, understated look, Matte offers a smooth, non-reflective elegance. It is also functional, allowing you to write appointment times or notes directly on the card without smudging.
Silk Lamination: For a truly unique tactile experience, Silk Lamination adds a soft-touch, buttery texture that feels water-resistant and undeniably premium.
Silk Lamination: A soft-touch, buttery texture that feels unique and water-resistant.
Rounded Corners: Add a modern detailed touch by rounding 1/4" or 1/8" corners. Prevents "dog ears" in wallets.

Turnaround Times & Transparent Pricing

Business moves fast, and you can't afford to wait weeks for your marketing materials. We believe in total transparency—no hidden fees, just reliable deadlines.

While our standard production delivers quality in 3-5 business days, we know that opportunities often pop up unexpectedly. That is why we offer Rush (2-3 days) and Express (1-2 days) options, ensuring you are prepared for that last-minute conference or client meeting.

*Tip: Ordering 1,000 cards often costs only marginally more than 500, offering the best price-per-card value.

File Setup & Design Guidelines

To ensure your cheap business cards print perfectly, please follow these file specifications. Our cheap business cards printing service requires proper file setup for optimal results:

✅ File Format: PDF (preferred), JPG, or PNG.
✅ Resolution: 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) for crisp clear text.
✅ Color Mode: CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) is best for print color accuracy.
✅ Bleed Area: Add 0.125" (1/8 inch) bleed to each side if your design goes to the edge. (Total size: 3.625" x 2.125").
✅ Safe Zone: Keep critical text 0.125" away from the trim line to avoid it getting cut off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is graphic design really free?

Yes! We offer a "Free Basic Design" service for all orders. Upload your logo and text, and our designers will create a professional layout for your cheap business cards. Alternatively, use our advanced AI designer tool online.

F.A.Q. (Frequently Asked Questions about our Business Cards in General)

1. Why are your prices so low?

Our competitive pricing is the result of efficiency, not corner-cutting. We utilize "gang-run" printing, which allows us to place multiple customers' orders on a single large offset sheet. This shares the setup and plate costs across many projects, and we pass those operational savings directly to you.

2. Are there hidden fees?

We believe in total pricing transparency. The quote you see in your cart covers printing and selected shipping. Aside from standard sales tax (where applicable), there are absolutely no hidden setup fees, color charges, or surprise add-ons.

3. Does "cheap" mean low quality?

Not at all. We use the term "cheap" to refer to our prices, not our product. By optimizing our supply chain and using state-of-the-art offset presses, we provide the same 14pt and 16pt premium cardstock used by high-end boutique agencies—just without the boutique markup.

4. Do you have a price-match for business cards?

Yes, we can price match business cards. We match any reputable online printer. This includes VistaPrint and Uprinting. We want to be your first choice for business cards.

5. Is there a discount for ordering for my whole team (bulk orders)?

We launch special deals and discount very often on our printing discount page https://cheapfastprinting.com/system/design-printing-discount-coupon-codes/ for every product we offer, sometimes, you can find additional deals and discounts for our business cards products as well.

6. How fast is your "Next-Day" business card printing?

If you approve your art by 2pm, we ship the next business day. This excludes weekends and holidays. Please contact us for very urgent orders. We will make sure your business card order moves as fast as possible.

7. What is the cutoff time for next-day business cards?

Our cutoff time is 2pm Eastern Standard Time. This is Miami, Florida time. This applies to all of our business card products.

8. Printing Turnaround vs Shipping Time?

Making a business card has many steps. These include design and printing. Turnaround is the time to get the job ready to ship. Transit time is the time for delivery to your door.

9. How fast can I get business cards?

We can sometimes ship business cards on the same day. This is for extreme rush cases. It has an extra fee. It is for our loyal customers. Contact us for your urgent business card needs.

10. Is there a "Rush Fee" for business cards?

Our business cards ship very fast. For next-day orders, we may add a small fee. This covers the cost of fast work for your business cards.
