Always in vogue

A true classic never goes out of style — a point well proven by matte business cards. This paper stock continues to be among our most popular year after year and it’s easy to see why: the shine-free paper absorbs more ink, making it a great option for big, colourful designs.

Shape your story

Matte business cards give you options: choose from 3 paper thicknesses (300, 400 and 600 gsm) and a shine-free finish that makes colours pop. Plus, you can use a square shape or rounded corners to make your design truly one-of-a-kind. Want extra flair? Add metallic foil or spot UV printing.

Exemplary customer service

30 Oct 2025 | Sophia | Verified Buyer
Great quality, sleek cards. We had some issues with how our business cards printed first time around…and second - it seems there was a technical issue with the editing process for our design. Vistaprint were incredibly easy to contact and I was able to speak directly to a very friendly and supportive member of staff. Our amended order was posted promptly and we received follow up emails to check that we were happy with the business cards received. It is so rare these days to find this level of care from companies! Well done Vistaprint.

Fantastic

I would have really liked the option to order a sample. The cards have come and I realise that I should have gone with the thicker card. These look/feel very cheap.
