A smoothly coated classic

Polished and professional, matte finish business cards are always in style. Matte paper has been a customer favorite for years, and it’s easy to see why. The smooth, low-contrast finish reduces glare and deepens colours, making them a great option for readability and modern designs like black business cards.

Add your personal touch

Make your matte business cards speak for your business with our variety of custom options. We have standard, premium and premium plus thicknesses available. You can also select a square shape or rounded corners to make your design stand out. For an ultra-eye-catching touch, try adding one of our special finishes, like metallic foil or embossed gloss.

Start designing

Our user-friendly design studio makes business card printing easier than ever.

A little disappointed

I’ve ordered the matte business cards from Vista Print a few times and they’ve always come out perfect. This time there seems to be a bit of a shine and texture to the paper. Not what I have come to expect. I may shop around next time.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for your review submission. We are sorry about the recent set of business cards you received. We have done some checks and found that previously, you ordered the recycled matte business cards, which have an uncoated finish. However, the matte business cards were recently ordered, which have a coating on the front of the cards. When placing your next order, feel free to contact us directly for assistance.

Very good

I ordered artificial intelligence, and I paid for it using artificial intelligence too. I’m more than satisfied.

 Our matte business cards have a non-reflective surface on both sides.

You can write on our matte cards, but different markers or pens may give you different results. If you’re looking for a material you can easily write on, try our uncoated business cards.

You can choose from our square shape and rounded corner upgrades. We also offer special finish upgrades, like embossed gloss or foil accent. Just look for those choices as you go through the design process, and keep in mind that special finishes aren’t available with square business cards.

Absolutely. You can choose from glossy finish business cards and a variety of others. Matte business cards have a smoother, non-reflective surface, sometimes described as silky or polished. They’re great for deep colours, especially for black business cards, and have a refined feel. Glossy business cards have a shiny, light-catching finish that helps bright colours and photographs pop.
