The tradition of handing out visiting cards is an ancient one and has been a staple of formal social etiquette for decades. Visiting cards are used to communicate the identity of the person who is giving them – typically with their name, title, and address. They can also include a short message or quote from that person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


As society becomes more digital, there are still millions of visiting cards being printed globally. They are still being relied on for business and are still holding their value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


So how much does a visiting card cost? The price of an individual card cannot be calculated on its own as it depends on several factors.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Let us have a look at the factors that influence the cost of a visiting card:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. The material of the card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


The major component of a visiting card is the material that the card will be printed on. If the card is being printed on thick and high-quality paper, then the price of the card will be higher. Lower quality paper will be comparatively cheaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


If the card is being printed on plastic, then the cost of the plastic along with the quality of the plastic will determine the cost of the card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. The number of cards being printed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


The number of cards you print will impact the cost of an individual card. In bulk orders, the cost per card will be lower compared to when you place an order for a handful of cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. The finish of the card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


The finish of a visiting card consists of the coating, and the final touches of the card. The two popular coatings of a card are matte and glossy. The type of finish you choose will affect the cost of your visiting card along with the kind of finish of your card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


The finish of a card are the details you want on your card. For example: if you want the words of your card to be slightly raised over the level of the card, if you want a raised spot gloss finish where a shiny gloss layer is added over a specific design of the card, etc. These factors will influence the cost of your card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. The shape and size of the card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


A standard 3.5\u201d x 2\u201d size card should not add a lot to your bill, but if your requirements need a more customized or specific shape to the card, then the cost of cutting the card will be extra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. Color and sides<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


If you choose a black and white print on the card, the price of the card will be lower and if you choose a color print, the cost of that will be higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Along with that, if you want the print on only one side of the card, the price will be lower and if you want both sides of the card to be printed, then that will cost more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

6. Designing of the card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


If you can design a card yourself without any help, then that should not affect the cost of the printing, but if you choose to go to a designer to design the card for you, then the fees of the card designing will be added to the cost of the card. Dividing this amount by the number of cards you get printed will help you determine the price per card respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


After having looked at the factors that determine the price of a card, let us take a look at the average cost of printing visiting cards in Canada:<\/p>\n\n\n\n


For a basic pack of 50 cards of 300GSM (grams per square meter), the average cost per card would be around 0.34 CAD<\/strong>, bringing the total to 17 CAD<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


But this is the price for the most basic card design, on very basic paper. For a customized card with its specifications, the prices of the above-mentioned factors will be added to the base of the card printing cost. Card printing does not have a fixed price. As stated above, several factors determine the final price of a card, as every card is made different as per their requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
