Personalised Business Card FAQs
Still not sure if youd like to order? Read over these frequently asked questions and see if they will change your mind. If theres something you need to know, weve likely already answered it below. But if we havent, you can always get in touch through our online contact form or by ringing 0808 1788 608.
Why should I order from 123Print, and not from the competition?
Our quality and price cant be beatenits as simple as that. If you dont believe us, read our reviews or order a sample pack (more on that in a moment).
One key point is price. Well-known competitors might charge twice, three times, even four times the price that we do. But that doesnt mean we offer low quality, as our reviews and sample packs are a testament to.
But what else sets us apart? Well, we pride ourselves on being straightforward. We dont spring any hidden charges on you for uploading your own picture, or picking a particular premium font. What you see is what you getwhich is how it should be. If one template costs more than another, thats always clear before you start designing.
Better yet is our Satisfaction Guaranteed policy. If theres any reason why you dont like your cards, you can send them back within thirty days for an exchange or a full refund. Well work with you to see if theres anything we can do to help, but if youre still not happy, you can have your money back.
How do you design your own business card?
Dont worry; its not as complicated as it sounds. Our online design studio lets you design your business card from the comfort of your chair. You can input your details, upload any photograph, move any and all elements across the page, and save your design for later if youre not finished.
If youre designing for lots of people, you can take advantage of our Time Saver option. This lets you keep the same design, but adjust the details on the face of the card. That way, you can design cards for lots of different people quickly!
But theres no guarantee that a design which looks good on a computer screen will look good on a card. Thats why we allow you to download a proof before you place your order. You can print this proof to see what your design looks like on real paper or card before deciding to go through with your booking.
Can you create any design you like when youre designing your personalised business card?
The design is up to you. But for best results, you should stick to our upload guidelines. The point of these guidelines is so that your design looks good on your card, not just on your screen.
For example, 300 dpi or better uploads are best, otherwise any picture on your card may look blurred or pixelated. In plain English, shots taken with a quality camera are good while those on a regular smartphone may not be (unless you dont mind your design looking blurred). Other specifications relate to which file types you can upload and where things can fit on a card.

Do you offer sample business cards?
We firmly believe that youll be blown away by the quality of our cards. Thats why were proud to offer a free sample pack containing many of our personalisable products to anybody or any business that would like one. Head over to our Free Samples section for more information.
Bear in mind that we cant send personalised samples, i.e. with your name, address and contact details on them. If we did, nobody would ever buy our stock! Your samples will have placeholder details instead.
How quickly can you deliver personalised business cards?
We strive to manufacture and despatch every order by the next business day. Provided that you place your order by 5pm the day before, it should get to you by the following day. Failing that, your cards will be with you within 48 hours of the time that you place your order!
Our basic shipping method is seven-days guaranteed. Thats one business day processing, plus two to six days for delivery. If youd like to track your order online, you can do so from the My Orders section of your account.
If you need more cards, and quickly, you can click Reorder on your My Orders screen. You can even make a few changes before ordering them again!
Do you offer discounted personalised business cards?
Our straightforward pricing promise means that on bulk orders, weve already included a discount for you to take advantage of. So, while 50 recycled business cards cost £5.81, 1000 (yes, a thousand!) only cost £44.95. You dont need a calculator to work out how big a discount that is!
That being said, sometimes we do offer further discounts in our promotional material. Contact us or sign up for our newsletter for more information.
