Printing cards to make your marketing go viral

Viral marketing isn't rocket science: All you need is a cool idea and the right medium, such as folded cards or postcards. Beyond their use as personal holiday greetings or birthday invitations, postcards are an excellent and affordable marketing tool that makes a big impact. Print custom cards personalised with punchy slogans, artistic illustrations or photos and immediately grab the attention of the recipients. The high-quality cards imprinted with your customised design make ideal giveaways at trade shows, in clubs or bars, at cultural events or wherever it is that your target group hangs out.
To print cards for official occasions or events, folded cards are the right choice. The high-quality cards offer plenty of space for personal messages and can be custom-designed to suit any purpose. Together with the matching envelopes, folded cards can be used as baby shower/baptism invitations, greeting cards, sympathy cards or to show loved ones appreciation by sending custom thank you cards after a birthday. Moreover, custom-printed folded cards are an inexpensive way to help build and maintain business relationships and express employee appreciation. There are many uses for high-quality folded cards with a personalised design: Send Christmas cards, to your customers and employees, invite staff to the upcoming team event or announce the next sales pitch. You want to print cards that boast different designs? No problem! Get up to 20 different designs at once by ordering our postcard multi-packs.

Quality cards that make a big impression

Show off your design idea by printing personalised cards to your specifications. We provide a variety of customisation options in terms of paper stock, size, print run and optional finish. We custom print cards from short print runs to large quantities to cater to all applications, needs and target groups. You want to invite a few friends to celebrate your birthday and need just a couple of invitation cards? No problem! You can order postcards from a minimum quantity of 25 in our online shop. We are the right print partner to cater for your business needs, too, producing cards in longer print runs and in premium quality. While you are at it, don't forget to order matching envelopes for your cards available in different quantities in our online shop. Tip: Incorporate you company colours into the card design and use spot colours to print your artwork on the envelopes. If you want to stand out from the crowd or present something eye-catching, go for folded cards in jumbo format or round/oval postcards instead of the standard sizes. The choice of paper is also decisive for the impact your cards will have. All paper stocks are of the best quality and create different effects. Cards printed on art paper with a paper weight of 300 gsm are the most popular choice. This cardstock makes the colours of your design pop and renders images in photo realistic quality. If you prefer a glossy finish, we recommend our shimmering Chromolux® Pearl paper with a mother-of-pearl effect or mirror-effect Magic-Chrome paper. To print exclusive cards, sturdy 280 gsm chromo cardstock, also called folding box board, is what you need. Add pop to your custom cards by choosing an optional finish that will make your design stand out bold and clear, for example, opt for a glossy or matt film lamination or soft touch lamination to provide protection and decorative properties to your cards. We optionally finish your folded cards and postcards with UV coating. The varnish protects the design and provides a brilliant glossy surface sheen. With our exclusive spot finish postcards, a foil or varnish is applied to selected parts of the cards only to produce an eye-catching effect and make specific elements on the card stand out.
