Product Description
Standard business cards printing describes business card printing that's done with standard sizes, designs, and materials. Typically, we use cardstock or similar material with a glossy or matte finish for this printing. In addition, we usually print these cards in bulk quantities for distribution.
Standard business cards are a cost-effective way to advertise your brand, and they are helpful in these settings:
- Business meetings,
- Conferences and events,
- Job interviews, and
- Personal branding
But what is the format for standard cards?
Standard Business Cards Printing Size & Format
The standard business card size is 3.5 inches by 2 inches. Individuals widely recognize and accept the standard size. Therefore, it is the most common size used by professional printers. It can fit in a wallet but is large enough to display your information.
Other popular business card sizes include:
- 2" x 2"
- 1.5" x 3.5"
- 2.125" x 3.375"
But you can order a custom size.
Many business card layouts have the landscape format. The landscape orientation is common and readable. However, some card prints are in portrait format. The portrait orientation is ideal for certain designs.
In addition to the standard size and format, there are some variations in the standard shape. For example, rectangular business cards are the standard, but some businesses may apply a rounded corner to the edges of their card for a unique look.
Square-shaped cards are a popular choice for business cards, although non-standard shapes and sizes usually cost more and may not fit in standard cardholders or wallets.

Like any other business card, a standard card may contain the following information:
- Company name and logo,

- Personal or professional name and job title,
- Contact information, and
