They fit the jobs where a paper card would not survive: membership cards for a gym or a club, gift and prepaid cards, loyalty and VIP cards, ID badges, and access key cards. For a thinner card at a lower price, the 20pt [Plastic Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/plastic-business-cards) start at $180.02 for 250 in white, frosted or clear. ### White, Clear or Frosted Plastic Business Cards White is the one to pick when the design carries photographs, dense color or small type. Solid white PVC behind the ink means every color prints as intended and text stays legible. Clear leaves the unprinted areas transparent, so type and logos look like they float. It needs a design built for it: broad areas of light color disappear, and anything that has to be read needs white ink or a solid block behind it. See [30mil clear plastic cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/30mil-clear-plastic-cards). Frosted sits between the two, a soft translucent finish that diffuses whatever is behind the card. Color prints softer on it unless white ink goes down first. See [30mil frosted plastic cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/30mil-frosted-plastic-cards). ### Is 30mil the Same as 20pt No. 30mil is 0.76 mm, the ISO thickness of a credit card. A 20pt plastic card is about two thirds of that and flexes noticeably when you hold it by one edge. Every card on this page is the thicker 30mil. ### What Finishes and Ink Options Can You Choose For ink you choose 4/0, full color across the front with a blank back for a signature panel or handwriting, or 4/4, full color on both sides so the back can carry terms, a barcode, or a second design. The face takes one of two finishes, compared below. ### 30mil White Plastic Cards , Configured Your Way 6 option groups, 18 choices, defaults: UV Gloss Finish, 4/0: 4 Color Front; Blank Back ### UV Gloss Finish or Silk Laminated Matte Finish UV Gloss Finish is the shiny face, the one that makes photographs and saturated color read the way they do on a bank card, and it wipes clean when the card lives in a wallet. Silk Laminated Matte Finish is the low sheen option, and it is the one to choose if anything is going to be written on the card. A matte surface holds pen ink instead of beading it, which makes it the better partner for a signature panel or for handwritten member numbers and dates. Matte also hides the fingerprints that show on a gloss card handled every day. ### What Card Features Can You Add These options make the card something people swipe, sign and scan at a till or a door, and you only pay for the ones you turn on. #### Add a magnetic stripe and a signature panel Choose a LoCo or HiCo magnetic stripe for gift, loyalty or door-access readers: LoCo for promo and gift cards that turn over fast, HiCo for a member card swiped for years. The signature panel is a white strip on the back where the member signs, the way they sign a bank card. #### Number every card differently Barcodes come in Code 128, Code 39, UPC-A or EAN-13, and sequential variable data gives each card in the run its own number or code. Embossed numbering presses the digits up in a 14pt or 18pt font, plain or tipped in gold or silver foil, like a classic credit card. #### Finish it for the job The scratch-off panel covers a PIN on prepaid and promo cards. Foil stamping runs on the front, the back or both. A punched lanyard slot on the 2.125" or the 3.375" edge lets the card clip to a badge reel or hang from a lanyard at an event. For an ID badge, pair the lanyard slot with a barcode and sequential numbering; for a gift or door card, use the magnetic stripe, with a signature panel when it goes to a named member. #### Start from a template Pick a free layout from our [business card design templates](https://www.4over4.com/design-templates/business-cards) and change the colors, copy and logo in the online editor. Keep names and numbers inside the safe margin, since every plastic card has rounded corners. Have your own art? The [blank plastic card template](https://www.4over4.com/blank-templates/30mil-white-plastic-cards) marks the bleed, the rounded corners and the stripe zone, so no text lands under the magnetic stripe. ## Wally prints a card built like a credit card Why a $226.11 run of 30mil plastic cards outlasts anything on paper.

For a pilot that only needs a few, the spares from a 250 run cover new staff and replacement cards later. ### Can I add a magnetic stripe that works with my card reader? Yes. Check which stripe your reader and encoder expect, then choose LoCo or HiCo in the Magnetic Stripe option before you add the job to the cart. ### What is the cheapest way to get business cards? If the card does not have to be plastic, paper business cards cost far less. On plastic, a bigger run is the saving: 1,000 cards bring the price to about 38 cents a card, against about 90 cents at 250.
