500 Customised Visiting/Business Cards

Types of Visiting Cards Available at 500 Quantity

Ordering 500 visiting cards gives you access to many professional and premium card options. Whether you need simple daily-use cards or standout designs, there are choices to suit every networking style and brand personality.

• Single/Double Sided Printing: Make the most of your card by using both sides effectively. Add social media handles, a QR code, a tagline, or a list of services on the back to give recipients more ways to connect with you. Use both sides of your card to give contacts a more complete picture of who you are and what you do. It keeps your front layout clean and focused. Both options are cost-effective, and the choice simply comes down to how much information you want your card to carry. 
• Standard Gloss / Matte / Spot UV: Choose a clean matte finish for a smooth, understated professional look, or go high-gloss for a polished and vibrant finish that makes bold designs pop. Spot UV adds a selective shine to specific design elements, helping your logo or name stand out immediately. These finishes work well for daily office use and conferences alike, protecting the surface while giving your card a crisp, lasting appearance.
• Textured / Extra Stiff Paper: Select heavier stocks to create a more distinctive tactile experience that feels premium the moment someone holds your card. This paper choice separates your card from thinner alternatives by adding real thickness and durability for a stronger first impression. These styles are ideal for professionals who want their brand to feel solid and reliable from the very first touch.
• Shape-Based Business Cards: Traditional rectangular cards remain a practical and professional option for everyday business use across industries. Creative shaped cards add uniqueness to your branding with custom contours and stronger visual distinction that stands out instantly. These shapes are excellent for creative roles or brands looking to make a memorable impact when meeting new prospects.
• Cards by Profession: Profession-based designs are tailored for industries like consulting, design, healthcare, and real estate, with specific templates available for doctors, real estate agents, and many creative roles. These layouts make designing your card fast and easy while aligning your card style with your professional identity. You get a look that fits your standards perfectly without needing complex design skills, creating stronger relevance during every networking interaction.

What Affects the 500 Business Cards Price?

Several design and production variables determine the final cost of 500 business cards. Understanding these helps you manage your budget while ensuring your brand looks its best, as premium upgrades increase both price and visual quality.

• Paper Stock and GSM: The thickness of your paper changes both the cost and the feel of the final product, with standard paper keeping costs low for regular business use. Higher GSM paper provides a stiffer, more durable finish that feels substantial and commands attention. Specialty paper options cost more but create a strong first impression, and choosing the right weight ensures your card reflects your quality and attention to detail.
• Single Side vs Double Side Printing: Single-sided cards are the most cost-effective choice for straightforward business needs with a clean, simple layout. Printing on both sides requires extra ink and machine time, adding slightly to the cost but doubling your content space and design flexibility. Double sided printing is often worth the small price difference for the additional information and functionality you can offer potential clients.
• Finish Type: Matte and gloss finishes deliver dependable style with polished appeal for everyday brand presentation at an accessible price. Specialty coatings like Spot UV, soft touch, or foil stamping require extra production steps but add significant visual detail perfect for stronger brand recall. While these additions raise the production cost, they help your cards catch the light and leave a far more memorable impression on everyone you meet.
• Standard Size vs Custom Die-Cut Shapes: Traditional rectangular cards are the most budget-friendly option and can be produced quickly for all standard business needs. Custom die-cut shapes involve specialised cutting processes, which add production time and increase the final price. This choice is an investment in unique brand identity and long-term recall, giving your card far more visual distinction than a standard format can.
• Impression Quality: Premium finishes and thicker materials naturally raise the total cost of your order but create a noticeably stronger first impression during every business interaction. Higher-end choices make your card feel more memorable and visually refined from the moment it changes hands. While they increase pricing, they often significantly improve how your professional image is perceived by clients and contacts.
