Plastic Business Cards: Durable Stylish Cards for Professionals

Welcome to Plastic Card ID: Your Trusted Source for Plastic Business Cards

There is something undeniably powerful about handing someone a well-crafted plastic business card. It does not bend, fade, or get tossed aside like its paper cousins. At Plastic Card ID, we have spent more than 25 years turning that simple truth into a thriving business built on quality, trust, and real results for our clients across the country.

We have partnered with over 100,000 businesses and delivered more than 50 million cards nationwide. That is not just a number - that is 50 million first impressions, brand moments, and lasting connections made possible by the products we craft with care. Whether you are a small boutique or a large enterprise, we bring the same dedication to every single order.

Our team ships plastic cards, card printers, and all the refill supplies you need directly to your door, no matter where you are in the country. Getting started is simple. New orders and questions are always welcome, and you can reach us anytime at 800-835-7919. We are here to make the process easy, fast, and enjoyable from start to finish.

This page is your guide to everything we offer - from the types of cards we produce to the technology behind them. We invite you to explore what makes Plastic Card ID a one-stop shop that businesses return to again and again. The future of your brand identity may be closer than you think, and it starts with a single card.

Why Plastic Business Cards Outperform Paper

Paper cards have been around forever, and they serve a purpose. But plastic business cards do something paper simply cannot - they stay in wallets, desk drawers, and cardholders for months or even years without falling apart. A card that holds up over time keeps your brand in front of people long after the first meeting, and that kind of staying power matters in a crowded marketplace.

We have seen it happen countless times. A client upgrades from paper to plastic and almost immediately notices the difference in how people respond. Contacts hold on to the card longer, comment on how it feels, and often remember the brand more clearly. That physical weight and texture carries a message all on its own - one that says your business is serious and built to last.

The numbers back this up. Studies have shown that businesses switching from paper to plastic cards enjoy significantly stronger brand recall and customer engagement. When every detail of your card communicates quality, your brand benefits in ways that are both measurable and meaningful to your bottom line.

A Legacy Built on Real Relationships

We did not grow to serve over 100,000 businesses by being transactional. We grew because we treat every client like a long-term partner. Our team takes the time to understand what you need, what your brand stands for, and how your cards will be used in the real world. That kind of attention leads to better products and stronger outcomes for the businesses we serve.

Our history spans more than a quarter century, and in that time we have watched trends come and go. What has never changed is the demand for high-quality plastic cards. They remain one of the most cost-effective tools a business can use to reinforce its identity, reward loyal customers, and communicate professionalism at every touchpoint.

Long after a digital ad is scrolled past and forgotten, a great plastic business card sits in someone's hand, their pocket, or their wallet. That kind of presence cannot be bought with a banner ad. It is earned through craftsmanship, and that is exactly what we provide every single day.

Nationwide Shipping, Fast and Reliable

It does not matter if your business is in a major metro area or a small town - we get your order to you.

The Full Range of Plastic Cards We Offer

The Full Range of Plastic Cards We OfferNot all plastic cards are created equal, and not all businesses need the same type. That is why we maintain one of the broadest product lines in the industry. From simple, clean business cards to feature-rich loyalty and membership cards, we produce what your brand needs to make the right impression at the right moment.

Our card portfolio covers a wide range of industries and use cases. We work with retailers, hotels, clubs, schools, healthcare providers, and hundreds of other types of organizations. No matter what your industry is, we likely have a card solution that fits your needs perfectly and can be customized to match your brand identity down to the finest detail.

Below is a look at some of the many card types we specialize in. Each one is designed with purpose and produced with the high standards that have made Plastic Card ID a trusted name in plastic card printing for over two decades. The right card can change how customers see your brand entirely.

Gift Cards and Loyalty Cards That Drive Real Revenue

Gift cards are one of the most proven sales tools in the retail world. Research consistently shows that businesses using plastic gift cards see sales increases that can reach up to 100% compared to paper gift certificates. When customers give your gift card to a friend or family member, they are essentially doing your marketing for you - and that is an incredibly powerful outcome.

Loyalty cards work hand in hand with gift cards to keep customers coming back. When your customer carries your loyalty card in their wallet, your brand travels with them everywhere they go. Every time they pull it out, they are reminded of your business. That kind of repeated exposure builds a sense of connection that translates directly into repeat visits and higher average spending per customer.

We design and print both gift and loyalty cards that are durable, visually stunning, and ready to work hard for your business from day one. Our team can help you design something that truly stands out on a display rack or in a customer's hand, because we know that how a card looks matters just as much as what it does.

ID Badges, Membership Cards, and Credentials

Identity cards serve a completely different purpose than marketing cards, but they are just as important. A well-made ID badge communicates authority and professionalism. Whether it is for an employee, a club member, a student, or a union worker, the card they carry says something about the organization behind it. We make sure that message is always a strong one.

We produce alumni cards, union credentials, membership cards, and photo ID badges for organizations of every size. Our cards are built to hold up through daily use, with sharp printing that stays crisp and colors that remain vibrant for years. When your people carry our cards, they carry a piece of your organization's identity with them wherever they go.

Security and access control are also important features we can build into these cards. From barcodes to magnetic stripes to RFID chips, we can add the technology your organization needs to manage access, track attendance, or verify identity quickly and efficiently. These are not just cards - they are tools that make your organization run better.

Hotel Key Cards, Casino Player Cards, and Access Control

The hospitality and entertainment industries rely heavily on plastic cards for both function and brand impression. A hotel key card is often the first branded item a guest touches when they check in, and that first physical interaction sets the tone for their entire stay. We produce hotel key cards that are both highly functional and beautifully branded to reinforce the guest experience.

Casino player cards are another specialty area where we truly shine. These cards need to be durable, scannable, and visually impressive all at once. We produce player cards that casinos trust to perform perfectly in their loyalty and rewards programs. Every swipe of the card is a touchpoint between the brand and the player, and we make sure that moment counts.

Our access control cards include RFID smart cards with cutting-edge contactless technology, including MIFARE DESFire options. These cards allow businesses and institutions to manage secure entry, track movement, and protect sensitive areas with confidence. We supply the cards and can pair them with compatible card printers and programming supplies to make your system complete.

Specialty Cards That Make Lasting Impressions

Card Type Best For Key Feature
Clear Plastic Cards Modern Branding Transparent, sleek design
Custom Shape Cards Unique Industries Die-cut to any shape
Metal Cards Luxury Brands Stainless steel or gold finish
Postcard Mailers Direct Mail Campaigns Double response rates vs. paper

Sometimes a standard card is not enough. For brands that want to truly stand apart, we offer a line of specialty cards that push the boundaries of what a plastic card can be. These are conversation starters, collector pieces, and brand statements all rolled into one slim, elegant product. When you want to make someone stop and stare, specialty cards are the answer.

We work with businesses that understand the value of going the extra mile. Luxury boutiques, high-end restaurants, premium service providers, and forward-thinking startups have all discovered that a specialty card does not just get noticed - it gets remembered. A card that surprises the person receiving it does the hard work of brand differentiation for you.

Our specialty lineup is one of the most exciting parts of what we offer, and our team loves helping clients discover which option best fits their vision. From the first design consultation to the moment the finished cards arrive at your door, we are with you every step of the way to make sure the final product exceeds your expectations completely.

Clear Plastic Cards: Transparent and Trendy

Clear plastic cards have a look that simply cannot be replicated with any other material. When light passes through a well-designed transparent card, the effect is striking and modern. These cards appeal to brands that want to communicate innovation, creativity, and a forward-thinking attitude without saying a single word about it directly.

We produce clear cards with precision printing that makes your design pop against the transparent background. Logos, contact information, and graphics all take on a uniquely dynamic quality when printed on clear stock. The result is a card that feels premium, looks distinctive, and creates a memorable moment every time it changes hands during a professional introduction.

Clear cards work particularly well for tech companies, creative agencies, photographers, designers, and any brand that values aesthetics as part of its identity. If your industry rewards originality and visual flair, a clear plastic card from our lineup could be one of the best investments your marketing budget makes this year.

Metal Cards: The Ultimate Statement of Luxury

There is a reason luxury brands around the world have gravitated toward metal cards. The weight alone communicates something paper and standard plastic cannot - that this brand takes itself seriously and respects the person it is handing the card to. A metal card is not just a contact tool; it is a physical embodiment of a brand's values and standards.

We craft metal cards from premium materials including stainless steel and gold-finished stock. Each card is produced with the same attention to detail we bring to every product in our lineup. Custom engraving, laser etching, and intricate graphic work are all possible, giving your card a truly one-of-a-kind quality that leaves a lasting impression on everyone who receives one.

Metal cards are especially popular with financial advisors, real estate agents, executive coaches, high-end retail brands, and service providers who work with affluent clients. When the context calls for the very best, our metal cards deliver an experience that elevates your brand and sets you apart from every competitor in the room.

Custom Shape Cards and Postcard Mailers

Who says a card has to be a rectangle? Custom shape cards are one of the most creative tools in our lineup, and they consistently generate buzz among the people who receive them. A card die-cut into the shape of your logo, your product, or something unique to your industry is something people talk about - and talking is exactly what good marketing should inspire.

Our postcard mailers are another specialty product that delivers remarkable results. Unlike standard paper postcards, our plastic postcard mailers achieve double the response rates of traditional direct mail. They feel different in the recipient's hands, they survive the mailing process in perfect condition, and they communicate a level of quality that generic paper mailers simply cannot match in today's crowded mailbox environment.

Whether you are running a direct mail campaign, attending a trade show, or refreshing your brand identity from the ground up, custom shape cards and postcard mailers give you creative options that go beyond the ordinary. Our team will help you explore the possibilities and bring your most creative ideas to life with expert printing and production quality that speaks for itself.

Popular Card Printer Brands We Carry

We carry printers from the most trusted names in the industry. These are brands that professional card issuers have relied on for years, and we are proud to offer them alongside the expert guidance needed to get the most out of every machine. Knowing which printer matches your workflow is just as important as the machine itself, and that is where our experience really shows.

  • Zebra card printers - known for reliability and high-volume performance
  • Matica card printers - ideal for enterprise and security applications
  • Evolis card printers - popular for their user-friendly design and versatility
  • Fargo card printers (HID) - trusted by governments and corporations for secure ID production

Each of these brands offers a range of models that serve different printing volumes and feature requirements. Whether you are printing a few hundred cards per month or tens of thousands, we can match you with a printer that performs at the level your organization demands. Our team stays current on every model we carry so our recommendations are always accurate and relevant to your situation.

Investing in a quality card printer is a long-term decision, and we take that seriously. We do not just sell you a printer and disappear. We are here to help with setup questions, supply reorders, and any technical guidance you need to keep your operation running smoothly. That kind of ongoing support is part of what makes working with us a genuinely different experience.

Printer Ribbons, Cleaning Kits, and Accessories

A great printer is only as good as the supplies that feed it. We stock a comprehensive range of printer ribbons, cleaning kits, and accessories that are compatible with the major card printer brands we carry. Having the right supplies on hand means your printer runs efficiently, produces consistent quality, and lasts much longer than it would with poor-quality consumables.

Our ribbon inventory includes options for full-color YMCKO printing, monochrome black, and specialty overlays that add durability and security features to finished cards. We also stock retransfer film for printers that use that technology. No matter what your printer requires, we likely have it in stock and ready to ship to your location anywhere in the country with minimal lead time.

  • YMCKO full-color ribbons for vibrant, professional card printing
  • Monochrome ribbons in black, blue, red, and other colors
  • Retransfer film for edge-to-edge printing on smart cards and specialty stock
  • Cleaning kits to maintain print head performance and extend printer lifespan
  • Blank PVC card stock in standard CR80 size and specialty formats
  • Topcoat overlay ribbons to protect printed cards from wear and fading

Keeping your supply cabinet stocked is easy when you work with us. We make reordering simple and fast so that running out of ribbon or cleaning supplies never slows down your operation. Our team can even help you set up a recurring order schedule so you always have what you need before you run low and without having to think about it every single time.

Blank Card Stock and Specialty Card Media

Not every card needs to be fully printed by our facility. Many of our clients prefer to print cards in-house using their own printers, and we supply the blank card stock that makes that possible. Our blank PVC cards come in the standard CR80 credit card size and are compatible with all major desktop card printers. They are smooth, consistent, and feed through printers cleanly every single time.

We also carry specialty card media for clients with unique requirements. Composite PVC cards, adhesive-backed cards, magnetic stripe cards, smart chip cards, and proximity card stock are all available through our inventory. These specialty media types allow organizations to print cards that do more than just display information - they can store data, grant access, and interact with digital systems in meaningful ways.

If you are unsure which card stock is right for your printer or your application, our team is ready to help you figure it out. We match card media to printers and use cases every day, and we take pride in making sure clients get materials that work perfectly together. A quick call to 800-835-7919 is all it takes to get the right answer and get your order moving.

Value-Added Services That Complete Your Card Program

We are more than a card printer. We are a complete card program partner, which means we handle a lot more than just printing. From custom card carriers and sleeves to full-service card affixing and mailing, we offer value-added services that take the hassle out of managing your card program from end to end. You focus on your business - we handle the details.

Our value-added services are designed to save you time, reduce your internal workload, and ensure that every card reaches its intended audience in perfect condition and with a great presentation. These are not afterthoughts in our business model. They are a core part of how we help clients build successful card programs that run smoothly and deliver real results.

Turnkey card fulfillment is one of the most powerful offerings we have, and many clients tell us it has transformed the way they manage their card programs. When we handle affixing, mailing, and packaging, our clients free up staff time and eliminate logistical headaches that used to slow them down every single quarter.

Custom Card Carriers and Sleeves

The way a card is presented is almost as important as the card itself. A beautifully printed plastic business card or gift card that arrives in a plain envelope misses an opportunity to reinforce your brand at a key moment - the moment of unboxing or receiving. Our custom card carriers and sleeves solve this problem by giving your cards a presentation that matches their quality and reflects your brand's attention to detail.

Carriers and sleeves can be printed with your logo, a personal message, redemption instructions, or any other information that adds value to the card recipient's experience. We print these in full color on high-quality paper and card stock, and we can die-cut them into custom shapes if your brand calls for something truly unique. Every detail of the presentation is an extension of your brand, and we treat it that way.

Whether you need simple branded envelopes, fold-over card carriers, or elaborate presentation packages for premium clients, our team can design and produce a solution that perfectly complements your plastic cards. The result is a complete, cohesive brand experience from the moment the package arrives to the moment the card is put to use for the very first time.

Card Affixing and Mailing Services

Affixing cards to carriers, stuffing envelopes, and managing a large mailing campaign is time-consuming work. We offer full-service card affixing and mailing so that you never have to turn your office into a fulfillment center. Our team handles the physical work of attaching cards to their carriers and preparing everything for postal delivery, leaving your staff free to focus on higher-value tasks that only your team can do.

Our mailing services are especially popular with businesses that run large gift card programs, loyalty card campaigns, or membership renewal drives. Instead of managing thousands of individual pieces in-house, clients hand us the project and we take it across the finish line efficiently and accurately. Every piece goes out on time, in perfect condition, and representing your brand at its best.

Working with a single partner for design, printing, affixing, and mailing also eliminates the coordination overhead that comes from working with multiple vendors. Fewer hand-offs mean fewer mistakes, faster timelines, and a much smoother overall experience. This is the kind of end-to-end partnership that keeps our clients coming back to us year after year without shopping around.

Why Businesses Nationwide Trust Plastic Card ID

Trust is earned over time, and we have been earning it for more than 25 years. The businesses that work with us stay with us because we deliver what we promise, we treat every order with care, and we make ourselves genuinely easy to work with. Our client roster spans virtually every industry in America, and what they all have in common is a need for quality cards produced by a team that truly understands what they are doing.

Why Businesses Nationwide Trust Plastic Card ID

We have shipped over 50 million cards and served more than 100,000 businesses, and those numbers represent real partnerships built on consistent quality and dependable service. Our clients range from solo entrepreneurs printing their first box of plastic business cards to large corporations managing national card programs. We serve them all with the same level of dedication and professionalism that has defined our company since its founding.

Our reputation is our most valuable asset, and we protect it with every order we fulfill. When you work with us, you are tapping into more than two decades of expertise, a robust product catalog, and a team that genuinely cares whether you succeed. That is a combination that is hard to find anywhere else in this industry.

What Our Clients Say About Working With Us

Nothing tells our story better than the experiences of the businesses we serve. Across industries and across the country, clients consistently highlight the same qualities when they describe what it is like to work with us - quality, speed, accuracy, and genuine helpfulness. These are not qualities we advertise; they are qualities our clients discover and then come back for again and again.

Retailers tell us that their plastic gift cards have transformed their in-store sales performance. Hotel operators tell us that our key cards have elevated the guest experience from the very first moment of check-in. Membership organizations tell us that their members hold on to our cards for years because they feel substantial and look professional. These real-world outcomes are exactly what we set out to achieve with every single order we produce.

A boutique clothing retailer in the Southwest switched from paper gift certificates to our plastic gift cards and reported a nearly 100% increase in gift card sales within the first three months. A regional credit union introduced our loyalty cards to their checking account holders and saw a measurable increase in customer retention scores. Stories like these are what motivate our team to keep raising our own standards every single day.

Case Study Highlights: Real Results from Real Businesses

A mid-sized spa chain approached us looking for a way to boost their gift card revenue during the holiday season. They had been using paper gift certificates that got wrinkled, lost, or forgotten in drawers. We designed a custom plastic gift card with a premium look that matched their brand perfectly and provided branded carriers for presentation. Their holiday gift card sales more than doubled compared to the previous year, and customer feedback on the card itself was overwhelmingly positive.

A regional fitness club needed membership cards that could withstand daily use at check-in kiosks, look professional at their front desks, and convey the energy of their brand. We produced full-color plastic membership cards with barcodes for fast scanning. The club reported that member check-in times improved, staff spent less time manually looking up accounts, and members frequently commented positively on the professional quality of their cards.

These results are not unusual. They are what happens when a business invests in quality plastic cards produced by a team that knows how to get the details right. Whether you are running a small local shop or a multi-location operation, the outcomes we help our clients achieve speak clearly to the return on investment that high-quality plastic business cards consistently deliver.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many businesses come to us with questions about minimum order quantities, turnaround times, and customization options. Our minimums are designed to be accessible for businesses of every size, and our turnaround times are among the fastest in the industry. Custom options include full-color printing, foil stamping, embossing, magnetic stripes, barcodes, signature panels, and much more. We are happy to walk you through everything in detail.

Some clients wonder whether they should order pre-printed cards from us or invest in an in-house printer to produce cards themselves. The answer depends on your volume, your need for on-demand printing, and your workflow. Our team can help you evaluate both options honestly and recommend the approach that will serve your organization best both now and as your needs grow in the future.

  • What is the minimum order quantity? - We offer flexible minimums to suit small and large businesses alike.
  • How long does production take? - Most orders ship within a few business days of artwork approval.
  • Can I reorder the same design? - Yes, we keep your artwork on file for easy reordering at any time.

Marketing Power of Plastic Business Cards

In a world flooded with digital ads, emails, and social media posts, a physical plastic business card cuts through the noise in a way that digital tools simply cannot replicate. When you hand someone your card, you are creating a physical moment of connection that they can touch, hold, and revisit later. That tactile experience triggers memory in a way that seeing an ad on a screen never quite achieves.

Marketing studies have shown that plastic cards achieve significantly higher engagement than their paper counterparts. The moment someone picks up a quality plastic business card, they are already forming an impression of the brand behind it. That impression - of quality, durability, and professionalism - carries forward into every interaction that follows, giving your business a head start in every relationship it builds.

We have helped businesses in virtually every marketing category discover the power of plastic cards as a core component of their outreach strategy. From in-store promotions to direct mail campaigns, trade show giveaways to customer loyalty programs, plastic cards find their way into every effective marketing mix because they consistently deliver results that other tools cannot match at anywhere near the same cost per impression.

Gift Cards as a Sales Multiplier

Gift cards are one of the most powerful sales tools any retail business can use, and the data behind them is compelling. On average, gift card recipients spend 20-50% more than the face value of the card when they redeem it. That means every gift card you sell is not just recovering a sale - it is generating new revenue that would not have existed otherwise. We produce gift cards that are visually compelling enough to move off display racks on their own.

Plastic gift cards also have the advantage of being shareable. When a customer buys one for a friend, they are introducing your brand to someone new at no additional marketing cost to you. That kind of organic brand extension is invaluable, especially for local and regional businesses that are working to expand their customer base without dramatically increasing their marketing spend.

We can produce gift cards in any denomination configuration, with barcodes, magnetic stripes, or scratch-off PIN panels for online redemption. Our printing quality ensures that your gift card looks every bit as premium as those from major national brands, giving your customers a gift experience they feel genuinely proud to share with the people they care about.

Loyalty Cards That Build Repeat Business

Customer retention is one of the most valuable and cost-effective goals any business can pursue. Research consistently shows that retaining an existing customer costs far less than acquiring a new one, and loyalty card programs are one of the most proven tools for keeping customers coming back. A well-designed loyalty card program creates habitual return visits and builds the kind of emotional connection that turns ordinary customers into brand advocates.

Our loyalty cards are designed to be carried, used, and noticed. Every time a customer pulls out your loyalty card at checkout, they are reinforcing their own commitment to your brand. That repeated behavior deepens the relationship between your business and your best customers in a way that feels natural and rewarding rather than forced or gimmicky. It is simple behavioral psychology backed by decades of retail research and real-world results.

We produce loyalty cards for restaurants, coffee shops, salons, fitness centers, pet stores, and hundreds of other types of businesses. Each card is customized to reflect your brand's identity and designed to motivate the specific behaviors you want to encourage. Whether you run a simple punch card program or a sophisticated points-based system, we have the cards to make it work beautifully.

Security Features and Smart Card Technology

Security Features and Smart Card TechnologyModern plastic cards can do far more than display a name and phone number. Today's smart cards carry embedded technology that allows them to store data, communicate wirelessly, grant access to secure areas, and interact with digital systems in real time. We stay at the forefront of card technology so that our clients always have access to the most current and effective features available in the industry.

Security is a growing concern for organizations of every type. Whether you are protecting a corporate headquarters, managing access at a healthcare facility, or running a secure membership program, the right card technology can dramatically improve your security posture while also streamlining operations. We offer a full range of security features that can be incorporated into virtually any card we produce.

Our team works with clients to identify which security features make sense for their application and budget. We do not recommend technology for its own sake - we recommend it because it solves a real problem or creates a meaningful operational advantage. That practical, client-focused approach is one of the reasons so many organizations come to us for their most sensitive card programs.

RFID and Contactless Smart Card Options

RFID technology has changed the way organizations manage access and identity. Contactless smart cards allow employees, members, guests, or students to present their credentials with a simple tap or wave rather than inserting or swiping a card. This speeds up entry points, reduces wear on cards and readers, and creates a more seamless experience for users who move through secure areas frequently throughout their day.

We offer cards embedded with a variety of RFID frequencies and standards, including MIFARE DESFire, which is one of the most secure and widely adopted contactless card technologies available today. These cards are used by governments, financial institutions, transit systems, and major corporations around the world. Having access to the same technology through a dedicated partner like us gives your organization a significant advantage.

Our RFID card options can be paired with compatible card printers and programming equipment that we also supply, making us a true one-stop source for complete smart card programs. You do not need to coordinate between multiple vendors or worry about compatibility issues. We provide everything you need to implement a complete, functional, and secure contactless card system from start to finish.

Magnetic Stripes, Barcodes, and Signature Panels

Not every application requires the latest RFID technology. Many businesses and organizations are well served by more traditional card features like magnetic stripes and barcodes, which remain reliable and cost-effective for a wide range of use cases. We incorporate these features into cards every day, and our production quality ensures that they perform consistently throughout the life of the card.

Magnetic stripe cards are a dependable choice for gift card programs, access control systems, and loyalty programs that use swipe-based readers. We produce cards with high-coercivity (HiCo) and low-coercivity (LoCo) magnetic stripes, and we can encode them during production if needed. Barcodes and QR codes can be added to virtually any card design and scanned by standard point-of-sale equipment without any additional infrastructure investment.

Signature panels are another feature we offer for cards that need to be signed by the cardholder for verification purposes. This is common in membership cards, employee ID cards, and credentials where a visible signature adds an additional layer of identity verification. Every feature we add is produced to the same high standard as the rest of the card, ensuring a clean, professional look that reflects well on your organization.

Getting Started Is Easier Than You Think

Many businesses put off ordering professional plastic cards because they assume the process will be complicated, expensive, or time-consuming. The reality is that getting started with us is genuinely straightforward, and our team works hard to make it that way. From the very first conversation to the delivery of your finished cards, we guide you through every step and handle every detail that we can on your behalf.

You do not need to arrive with finished artwork or a complete design to get started. Our team can work with you from scratch, turning your ideas and brand elements into a card design that you will be proud to hand out. If you do have existing artwork, we can work with that too and make sure it translates perfectly to the dimensions and print requirements of your chosen card format.

Call PCID right now at 800-835-7919 and let us show you how easy it is to get started. Whether you are ordering your very first box of plastic business cards or launching a complete card program for your organization, we are ready to help you move forward with confidence and clarity from the very first phone call.

Our Simple Ordering Process

We have refined our ordering process over many years to make it as smooth and stress-free as possible for every type of client. It starts with a conversation about what you need - the type of card, the quantity, the features, and the timeline. From there, our team provides clear guidance on options and pricing so you can make an informed decision without any pressure or confusion getting in the way.

Once you approve your order, our production team takes over and brings your cards to life with precision and care. We do quality checks throughout the production process to ensure that every card meets our standards before it leaves our facility. When your order is ready, we ship it directly to your location anywhere in the country, often faster than clients expect based on their prior experiences with other suppliers.

  1. Contact us by phone or online to discuss your card needs and goals.
  2. Receive a clear quote with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
  3. Submit or create your artwork with guidance from our team.
  4. Approve your proof and confirm your production details.
  5. Receive your finished cards shipped directly to your door nationwide.

This process is designed to be clear, predictable, and collaborative. We keep you informed at every stage so there are never any surprises. Our goal is for every client to feel completely confident in their order from the moment they place it to the moment they open the box and see the finished product for the very first time.

Reordering and Ongoing Support

One of the most convenient benefits of working with us is how easy we make reordering. We keep your artwork and order details on file so that placing a repeat order takes minutes rather than starting from scratch every time. As your business grows and your card needs evolve, we are right there with you to adjust quantities, update designs, or add new features as needed.

Our team is also available for ongoing support with any questions that come up after your order arrives. If you are setting up a new card printer, need help troubleshooting a supply issue, or want to explore adding new card products to your lineup, we are just a phone call away. We see every client as a long-term relationship, not a one-time transaction, and we act accordingly in every interaction.

Businesses that make us their go-to card supplier consistently tell us that the ongoing support and ease of reordering are among the top reasons they stay loyal to us year after year. That kind of lasting relationship is something we work hard to earn and even harder to maintain, because we know that in a competitive market, consistency and reliability are the qualities that matter most to the businesses we serve.
