How Much Do 500 Business Cards Cost?
Five hundred custom business cards cost $49 — about $0.10 a card — on 16pt card stock, printed in full color on both sides. That includes gloss or matte finish, a designer proof before anything prints, and free FedEx Priority Overnight shipping. 100 cards are $29; 1,000 are $69.
What you get
Standard 3.5″ × 2″ cards on 16pt coated cover — the thick stock, not the 14pt that bends in a wallet. Full color on both sides at every quantity, so the back can carry a service list, a map, or a QR code at no extra cost. Choose gloss or matte; same price either way.
Send a print-ready file, or send a logo and the wording and a designer lays it out and emails a proof within 2–4 business hours. Nothing prints until you approve it.
The ladder
$29 for 100 ($0.29 each), $39 for 250 ($0.16), $49 for 500 ($0.10), $69 for 1,000 ($0.07). Cards are cut from large press sheets, so counts run slightly over — you get everything off the sheet.
Several names on one order
Each name is its own design, so each name is its own order at the quantity you want. Most small businesses order 250 or 500 per person. If you have six people, email us once with all six files and we will place the orders for you and send one proof set.
How fast
Proof in 2–4 business hours; production the next business day after approval; FedEx Priority Overnight to your door. In hand about three business days after ordering. Estimates, not guarantees.

When another printer will cost you less
- You want rounded corners, spot UV, foil or a painted edge. We print a plain, thick, well-cut card. Specialty finishes come from printers set up for them.
- You need 5,000 or more. Volume printers beat our per-card price well before that. Our value is 100–1,000 cards, proofed by a person, in hand in about three days.
- You have a week and no rush. Part of what you pay us for is the overnight service. If speed does not matter, do not pay for it.
