Standard Size. Outstanding Performance!

3.5" x 2" - this particular size has become popular for many American businesses because it offers a nice balance between display real estate and portability.

They aren't so big that they get in the way, but they also offer enough space to include all of the important information that people need to know about your company.

And if you want to get really fancy, there are plenty of upgrades available that allow you to add premium features to an otherwise standard card - things like Spot Gloss, Foil Stamping, Embossing, Die Cutting, & more.

FAQs

What is the US standard business cards size?

The standard size for US business cards is 3.5 inches wide by 2 inches tall.

Can I order custom standard business cards?

Of course! You can customize the paper and thickness, and add as many finishes as your budget will allow.

What is the best material for business cards?

It depends on your budget and how long you want them to last. Paper is the cheapest, but it's also the least durable. Plastic is more expensive, but it's more durable than paper. Wood, steel, aluminum, carbon fiber, titanium are all more expensive than plastic, but they're also more durable and can be engraved or printed with designs.

Why business cards are still important?

Business cards are still important because they provide a convenient way to exchange contact information. They're also a tangible reminder of a meeting or conversation, which can be helpful when trying to remember someone's name or contact information. Finally, business cards can help make a good first impression by conveying professionalism and attention to detail.

What other shapes and sizes of business cards are available?

You can also get square, mini, circle, oval, and folded business cards. Plus, custom die cut shapes are also available. Just be sure to provide the appropriate dimensions and file type when you place your order.
