Standard Business Cards - A quality control issue?
15 Jun 2026 | Janine C. |
Verified Buyer
I ordered 1000 standard business cards and was initially pleased when they were delivered early. However, when checking them, I found a significant proportion had printing defects and white ink smudges. Some of the smudges were significant and would have been spotted even by the quickest of glances. I did raise the issue with Vistaprint and after a bit of a frustrating chat with their AI, finally communicated with a real person. The business cards were reordered and I am glad to say the second batch of cards were fine.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us on the printing of the Standard Business Cards. We are saddened to hear that, while the cards looked great upon arrival, upon examination some had smudges and print marks. Furthermore, we want to reassure you that this is not normal for our print quality. In addition, we are pleased that our support team, when contacted, reordered the cards, and the replacements were fine. We appreciate your feedback.

First time ordering business cards - was thoroughly impressed with the customisation available through the website and how easy it was to use. The variety available for the actual cards themselves was also impressive and I am very happy with the quality!

Frequently asked questions

You can access to our standard cards with standard pricing on this page. Standard options are the following:

  • Paper thickness: Standard
  • Paper stocks: Matte
  • Shape: Standard (85 x 55 mm)
  • Corners: Standard

That being said, you can also find some of our premium upgrades on this page. As you create your card, you’ll have the opportunity to upgrade your paper, shape or corner selection – or add a special finish. Our “preview” feature gives you an idea of how your design will look with the different options, and you can also see the pricing of those upgrades while you design.

Don’t worry – we make it easy. First, choose your thickness, stock, corners and quantity. If you click “Browse designs,” you’ll be taken to a gallery of designs. If you already have a custom business card design you want to use, click on “Upload design.” And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Standard business cards are 85 x 55 mm and come in different thicknesses, measured in gsm (grams per square meter).

There's an extra fee. We offer both grayscale and color options for backside business card printing.

Yes. Our recycled matte cards are made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper.

You bet. We have industry-specific designs for beauty salon business cards, real estate business cards, business services cards, handyman business cards, political business cards and many more. We have appointment card designs, too.

Standard corners give cards a more traditional look – the clean, 90-degree cuts feel classic and elegant. While our rounded corners typically pair well with card designs that feel more modern or softer in style.

For sure. Besides rounded corners, we also offer square business cards and slim business cards.

Our brilliant finishes are special upgrades that add visual interest to your card design. Our metallic finish adds a foil effect to your design, while spot UV applies a layer of raised gloss (0.05 mm thick) to specific areas of your design. Please note that brilliant finishes are only added to the front side of your card.

For next-day business cards, when you place an order before the cut-off time, we'll print your cards on the same day and deliver them on the following business day. However, if the order is placed after the cut-off time, the cards will be printed on the next business day and delivered on the subsequent business day.

Next-day delivery is currently available in the UK, Germany, France, Denmark, Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands. If you're ordering from a different country, next-day delivery isn't available in your location. Delivery times will vary depending on your delivery method – you can view all the options at checkout.

Next-day delivery is primarily available for our standard business cards. These include matte paper stock, standard size (85 x 55 mm) and square (90-degree) corners. Other premium upgrades, like special finishes or alternative paper stocks, are not available for next-day delivery. To ensure your eligible business cards arrive the next day, check the cut-off time for your country and place your order before that time on a business day.

Yes. Due to carrier restrictions, next-day delivery may not be available in certain areas. To check availability for your area, select your paper weight and quantity, then see the update in ‘Get it as soon as’. (Need to update your area? Click on the estimated date to enter a different postcode.)

The next-day option will only be available if you’re ordering between midnight and 12pm on business days. This option won’t appear if you’re ordering after 12pm. Instead, your order will be printed the next business day and delivered the business day after that.

If next-day delivery is not available in your country, this option will not appear regardless of the order time. You can view all the available delivery options at checkout.
