Personalised Business Card FAQs
Still not sure if you’d like to order? Read over these frequently asked questions and see if they will change
your mind.
If there’s something you need to know, we’ve likely already answered it below. But if we haven’t, 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 can’t be beaten—it’s as simple as that. If you don’t 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 doesn’t 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 don’t spring any hidden
charges on
you for uploading your own picture, or picking a particular ‘premium’ font. What you see is what you get—which
is how it
should be. If one template costs more than another, that’s always clear before you start designing.
Better yet is our Satisfaction Guaranteed
policy. If there’s any reason why you don’t like your cards, you can send them
back within thirty days for an exchange or a full refund. We’ll work with you to see if there’s anything we can
do to
help, but if you’re still not happy, you can have your money back.
How do you design your own business card?
Don’t worry; it’s 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 you’re not finished.
If you’re 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 there’s no guarantee that a design which looks good on a computer screen will look good on a card. That’s
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 you’re 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
don’t mind your design looking blurred). Other specifications relate to which file types you can upload and
where things
can fit on a card.

Specifications.
Do you offer sample business cards?
We firmly believe that you’ll be blown away by the quality of our cards. That’s why we’re 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 can’t 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. That’s one business day processing, plus two to six days
for
delivery. If you’d 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, we’ve 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
don’t 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.
