How Much Does It Cost to Print Business Cards Professionally?
At Titans of Print, we offer everything from same-day standard cards to luxury finishes for high-end branding. Whether you’re printing 100 cards or 10,000, the cost depends on your material, finish, and order size. Our services are 100% in-house — no outsourcing — which means tighter quality control, faster delivery, and direct support every step of the way.
What Affects Business Card Pricing?
Business cards can range from budget-friendly to premium. Here’s what affects the final cost:
- Paper Type: Standard cards are usually 14pt–16pt with gloss or matte coating. We also offer 32pt–48pt ultra-thick cards with painted edges, suede, silk, or textured finishes.
- Printing Method: Most business cards are produced with offset or digital printing. We match the method to your design, quantity, and deadline — including same-day printing when needed.
- Custom Features: Add-ons like foil stamping, spot UV, die-cutting, embossing, debossing, laser cutting, or edge painting will increase the cost, but elevate the look dramatically.
- Design Complexity: Use your own design or work with our team. Simple text layouts are free; complex brand development may require design time.
- Quantity: Like most printing, the more you order, the lower your cost per card. For example, ordering 1,000 cards can often cost just slightly more than 250.
Business Card Price Ranges

| Quantity | Estimated Price Range |
|---|---|
| 100 Cards | $25 – $60 |
| 250 Cards | $35 – $90 |
| 500 Cards | $45 – $140 |
