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.

Unfortunately there’s a white border line around my logo that makes it look off. The design for the necessary space so I’m unsure if why it was like that.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that there is an unexpected white border line around your logo on your business cards, and we understand your confusion regarding why the design space did not print edge-to-edge. Upon reviewing your uploaded design file, especially for the backside layout, we can see that the image indeed did not fill the whole 2.11" x 3.61" design space, leaving empty white spaces on both the top and bottom parts of the business card. This layout restriction was fully visible on the digital preview screen, which means you received exactly what you designed, set up, and ordered. Because we utilize a fully automated printing process, our machines replicate the exact file placement, scaling, and dimensions submitted in the upload without making any manual adjustments or stretching during production. For future orders, we highly recommend ensuring that your uploaded design file matches the exact specifications and aspect ratio of the business card to guarantee it fills the entire design space perfectly.

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.
