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.

Hello, I received my business

May 22, 2026 | Abbas m.

Hello, I received my business cards order and unfortunately I’m very disappointed with the final print quality. The design I uploaded had much sharper details, better contrast, and clearer gold/silver colors, but the printed result came out blurry, dark, and low quality. The text and icons are not crisp, and the overall finish does not match the original design preview I approved. I have attached: The original design files A photo of the printed result As you can see, there is a significant difference between the approved artwork and the final printed product. I would appreciate it if you could review this issue and let me know what options are available for a reprint or resolution. Thank you,

I had to make a small order and needed it quite fast so I could hand out personal business cards for an event. Paying for the express shipping, it not only showed up extremely fast, it also showed up before the estimated date allowing me to hand out some earlier than expected! The quality is amazing and would personally order a thicker card in future (as it’s a bit see through due to my design. ) The only reason why it’s not a 5 star is it can be a bit pricey if you are express shipping

Excellent service and product!
