Spec for spec
Six differences on the same MOO card spec
Same specs, calmer invoice
Classic business cards come on 74 stocks, from 14pt gloss to 16pt soft touch and 18pt linen, with bulk tiers underneath.
A proof instead of a hope
Every order can take a free online proof first, so typos, low-res logos and trim-line accidents get caught while they cost nothing.
Finishes past the Luxe line
Foil in seven colors, spot UV on five side combinations, Midnite Black, kraft, clear plastic and 3D lenticular.
Bulk maths that reward growth
Spot UV cards cost $76.88 for 500 and $89.63 for 1,000, so doubling the run adds about a sixth to the bill.
Coins on every order
Every purchase earns Coins. MOO runs no loyalty program, per the table.
A written price backstop
4OVER4.COM will beat a lower price from a U.S. retail printer by 10 percent with our 110% Price Match Guarantee. Same spec, any competitor, bring the quote.
Size and template guide
3.5 x 2 inches, templates and the file
The standard size, and when to break it
US business cards run 3.5 x 2 inches, the size every wallet, rolodex, and card scanner expects, and both MOO and 4OVER4.COM print it as the default. Deviating is a decision, not an accident: square cards read differently in a stack but do not sit in a cardholder. The full dimension table, with bleed and safe zones, is in the business card size guide, and card thickness covers why 16pt is the floor for a card that feels intentional.
Templates that start the layout for you
MOO’s template library is good, and it is fair to say so. 4OVER4.COM answers with the 10,000+ free design templates across its site and a free online designer, so the layout, typography, and bleed setup arrive solved and you edit content, not geometry. Upload your own file instead and prepress checks it before the free proof goes out. Unsure how many to print? The order quantity guide walks through the count, and the unit price falls at every step.
Premium finishes
Black, foil, spot UV, kraft and clear
Feel comes from production: thick stock, soft lamination, a raised finish. 4OVER4.COM prints Midnite Black cards, foil accents, spot UV gloss, kraft, and clear plastic on calibrated presses with a prepress color check on every run.
At the top end sit 3D lenticular cards that flip between images as they tilt. Let the free samples kit prove the stocks in your hand before you commit. Context for the spend lives in how much business cards cost and why business cards still matter.
Rewarded
Coins on every order and five written guarantees behind it.
Premium
Foil, spot UV, soft touch, kraft, clear and 3D lenticular card lines.
Priced
39 quantity steps on classic cards, from 100 up to 100,000.

The full comparison
Luxe cotton, finishes and what a 16pt card costs
The same card prints here on a stock and finish you pick. The sections below also cover where MOO still wins.
What MOO gets right
MOO, printing since 2006, made business cards a design product. The template library is tasteful, Printfinity lets every card in a pack carry a different image, and the Luxe cotton line has real hand-feel. If a distinct MOO feature like Printfinity is the reason you print, that is a fair reason to stay, and this page will not pretend otherwise.
What the premium actually buys
Strip the brand and a business card is a spec sheet: size, stock weight, coating, finish. A classic set here runs 39 quantity steps, from 100 cards to 100,000, so compare at the count you will really order. The cost guide maps the ranges across finishes.
Sizes, templates, and the file itself
Both shops offer designers and templates, free at 4OVER4.COM in the template library. Prepress reviews every 4OVER4.COM file, so bleed, resolution and color mode problems surface before the press runs. The size and dimensions guide covers the geometry if you are building the file yourself.
The finish shootout
MOO's premium story peaks at Luxe: heavy cotton stock, color seams, lovely in the hand. The 4OVER4.COM finish menu starts where that stops: foil that catches light, spot UV that puts gloss exactly where the logo is, Midnite Black printed in white ink, kraft, clear plastic and 3D lenticular that flips as it tilts.
Pricing, rewards, and the backstop
Bulk tiers sit in every quote, and Coins come back on every order.
Who should stay with MOO
Anyone whose brand guidelines are already typeset in a MOO template has real switching costs. The wider 4OVER4.COM vs MOO page covers the rest of the catalog.
Where to start
Pick the finish first in the business cards collection, then the stock and the quantity.
The verdict
For a buyer who orders MOO business cards on spec rather than brand, the same sizes and finish families print here with Coins and a written price match; Printfinity fans may still prefer MOO.

MOO card questions
Common Questions
Seven answers for buyers pricing a MOO spec: the card size, which stock matches Luxe, which finishes carry over, and the price at your quantity. Every other printing question is on our FAQs hub.
What is a good alternative to moo business cards?
4OVER4.COM prints the same standard size cards on comparable and heavier stocks, with foil, spot UV, soft touch, clear and 3D lenticular card lines. Every order earns Coins. Start with the business cards range.
What size are moo business cards and does 4OVER4.COM match it?
MOO's standard US card is the classic 3.5 x 2 inches, and 4OVER4.COM prints the identical size as its default, so existing designs carry over without rework. Square and specialty shapes are available too. Bleed, trim, and safe-zone numbers are in the size and dimensions guide.
Can I use my MOO business card template design at 4OVER4.COM?
Yes. Export your design as a print-ready PDF at the card size with bleed and upload it; prepress checks the file and a free proof comes back before printing. Starting fresh instead? The free template library has ready layouts and the online designer handles the geometry for you.
How do moo business cards prices compare?
Price both at the quantity and finish you will order. 100 classic cards cost $17.57 and 400 cost $31.86. If MOO quotes less for the same spec, 4OVER4.COM will beat a lower price from a U.S. retail printer by 10 percent with our 110% Price Match Guarantee. See how much business cards cost for ranges by finish.
Does 4OVER4.COM offer finishes like the MOO Luxe line?
Yes, and past it. Midnite Black, soft touch, foil, spot UV, kraft, clear plastic, and 3D lenticular all print here. Order the free samples kit to feel the stocks before committing.
How long do the cards take to print and ship?
Many card products offer a same-day option when ordered by 12pm ET, while foil cards take 9 business days. Company wide, 99.8% of orders arrive on time and 82% ship early. Details live on the same-day printing page.
Is there a moo business card template equivalent here?
The design templates library covers free layouts across industries, editable in the free online designer, and every order still gets the prepress check before it prints.
