What UPrinting buyers tell us

Six reasons businesses leave UPrinting

01

60+ paper stocks and finishes

UPrinting sticks close to the standard lineup. 4OVER4.COM keeps 60+ paper types across its catalog, from 14pt to 32pt ultra-thick, with Spot UV, soft-touch lamination, foil stamping, painted edges, and raised ink.

02

A far bigger product range

1,000+ products versus UPrinting's 200+. Business cards, postcards, brochures, banners, stickers, labels, booklets, door hangers, rack cards, and table tents, all from one printer.

03

Reliability and track record

The company has printed since 1999, 10 billion+ cards across all its products, and its 99.8% on-time delivery rate is measured on every order.

04

Premium weight up to 32pt

Stocks run from 14pt, about the thickness of a credit card, up to 32pt ultra-thick cardstock. People keep thick cards and toss thin ones.

05

A rewards program with real value

The coin system lets you earn on every purchase and redeem for actual products, so the coins come off the next order as money.

06

Guarantees that cover everything

200 free business cards, loyalty coins on every order, a 110% price match, and five written guarantees.

Card weight

From a 14pt card to 32pt ultra-thick

UPrinting rates 4.3 on Google and 4.2 on Facebook and sticks close to a standard lineup. From the 60+ stocks on its company-wide list, 4OVER4.COM prints cards from 14pt, about the feel of a credit card, up to 32pt ultra-thick, and 50 black business cards start at $40.62.

Color accuracy is another gap. Every order goes through a pre-press quality check, and the presses are calibrated for consistent CMYK output, so you avoid the washed-out, slightly-off color that shows up in budget print runs.

1

Pricing

Competitive across every tier, and the base price already includes free file review and digital proofs, backed by a 110% price match.

2

Quality

A catalog-wide list of 60+ paper stocks, a pre-press quality check on every file, and presses calibrated for consistent CMYK. Order free samples and feel the stock first.

3

Support

Real print experts and a free proof on every order, so nothing goes to press until it is right.

Stock and range

Kraft, Triplex, Pearl and 32pt with five finishes

Paper and finish selection

UPrinting sticks close to the standard lineup. The 4OVER4.COM catalog holds 60+ paper types company-wide, Kraft, Triplex and Pearl metallic among them, with Spot UV, soft-touch lamination, foil stamping, painted edges and raised ink. Standard postcards from that list start at $16.48 per 50. See every Printing Alternative comparison on our site to compare other printers too.

Product range

UPrinting lists 200+ products. 4OVER4.COM carries 1,000+ across the company, so 50 black business cards at $40.62, 50 postcards at $16.48 and 50 brochures at $57.11 go on one order, beside banners, stickers, labels, booklets, door hangers, rack cards and table tents. For another comparison, see our 123Print Alternative breakdown.

The long read

UPrinting and 4OVER4.COM, part by part

UPrinting has printed since 2000 on 200+ products and rates 4.3 on Google. The seven parts below cover why buyers move, price, quality, range and fit, from 50 postcards at $16.48 to the coins on a reorder. More than 150,000 businesses have been served by 4OVER4.COM since 1999.

Why businesses are switching from UPrinting

Full-color brochures printed by 4OVER4.COM

Business owners, designers and marketing teams move off UPrinting for three reasons: a standard paper lineup, a 200-product ceiling, and rewards that rarely pay back.

4OVER4.COM has been printing since 1999, serving 150,000+ businesses with 1,000+ products across every category you can think of. Business cards, postcards, banners, brochures, and stickers all print on your choice of 60+ paper types. You can even Earn Coins with every order and redeem them for real products, and you can grab Free Samples first to feel the quality before placing a full order.

The short version

Metal bookmarks printed by 4OVER4.COM

4OVER4.COM is the stronger UPrinting alternative for anyone who cares about paper variety, print quality, and actually getting rewarded for loyalty. UPrinting covers the basics. 4OVER4.COM goes deeper.

With 60+ paper stocks, specialty finishes like Spot UV and foil stamping, and a coin-based rewards system, 4OVER4.COM gives you more control over how your prints look and feel. The quality guarantee backs every order with no exceptions, and 10,000+ reviews average 4.8, against 4.3 for UPrinting on Google. Compare it against every Printing Alternative on our site to see the difference.

Pricing breakdown, what you actually pay

Premium business cards printed by 4OVER4.COM

Compare what the price includes, not the sticker number: 50 standard postcards cost $16.48 and 50 brochures $57.11 here.

4OVER4.COM includes free file review and free digital proofs with every order. No hidden setup fees. No surprise art charges. Your quoted price is your actual price. UPrinting base prices can look competitive, but watch for add-on costs that creep in during checkout.

4OVER4.COM also runs a coin-based loyalty program. Every dollar you spend earns coins you can put toward future orders, including completely free business cards. Over time that adds up to real savings, especially for businesses that reorder regularly. For budget printers head to head, see our 48Hourprint Alternative breakdown.

Color that matches on the second run

Laminated postcards printed by 4OVER4.COM

Color accuracy, paper feel and finishing details are where two printers part.

Across its catalog 4OVER4.COM prints on 60+ paper stocks using offset and digital presses. Every order goes through a quality check before shipping, so colors come out vivid and consistent batch after batch. That matters when you print business cards for a rebrand or postcards for a seasonal campaign and need the second run to match the first.

Specialty finishes set 4OVER4.COM apart even further. Spot UV coating adds a glossy raised texture to specific design elements. Foil stamping in gold, silver, or holographic catches light and attention. Suede and Soft Touch lamination give cards a velvety, premium feel that people do not want to put down.

Where 4OVER4.COM pulls ahead

Paper selection comes first: the 60+ stocks on the company list include Kraft for rustic branding, Triplex for ultra-thick luxury, Pearl metallic for events. UPrinting gives you a fraction of these options, and 4OVER4.COM carries 1,000+ products to UPrinting's 200+.

Speed counts too. For a fast job, 4OVER4.COM offers Same Day Printing on select products, and with 82% of orders shipping ahead of schedule, on time usually means early. For other comparisons, see the 123Print Alternative and the Avery Alternative pages to see how 4OVER4.COM compares across the board.

Who this UPrinting alternative is right for

Small business owners who reorder often. The loyalty coin system means your fifth, tenth, and twentieth orders cost less than your first. That is built-in savings without hunting for coupon codes.

Designers and agencies managing multiple clients. With 60+ paper stocks and specialty finishes, you can match the right material to each brand without compromise. One client needs Kraft, another needs Pearl Metallic, and both are available.

Event planners and marketers on tight deadlines. Same-day printing and a track record of early shipments mean you are not sweating the timeline.

Anyone tired of good-enough quality. If your current prints look flat, feel flimsy, or do not match your screen, the 4OVER4.COM quality guarantee fixes that. You can even start from a free T Shirt Printing blank or browse the ready-made Design Templates.

What sets 4OVER4.COM apart

The 60+ paper stocks on the company list and the specialty finishes give you choices UPrinting does not list. Every order ships with five guarantees (quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and ultimate satisfaction), with no fine print and no exceptions. Order Free Samples to feel the difference before you commit, and join the 150,000+ businesses already printing with 4OVER4.COM.

4.8/ 5

The verdict

A stronger long-term partner than UPrinting: 1,000+ products, 60+ paper stocks, same-day shipping, five guarantees, and a 110% price match.

Order business cards

Real pricing

A lower total without hunting a UPrinting promo code

Coupon hunting costs time. Factory pricing moves on quantity instead: 50 standard postcards cost $16.48 and 50 brochures $57.11, and the unit price falls at each tier above that, so a small test run and a full reorder carry very different unit prices.

  • The price is live at every quantity, so you can compare run sizes before you commit to one.
  • Free file review and digital proofs sit in the base price rather than on the checkout total.
  • No setup fees and no surprise art charges.
  • The Price Match guarantee covers the case where a competitor total lands lower.

Price the same job at two or three quantities before you order. On repeat print work the quantity break is worth more than any code you will find.

The handover

What to check before you move a UPrinting reorder

A reorder that printed well once should print well again. Three things decide that, and all three are worth a minute before you upload.

  • Stock weight. Match the point weight you had, not the marketing name. A 14pt card and a 32pt card feel different in the hand.
  • Bleed and trim. Artwork built to one printer's template still needs its bleed and safe area checked against the new product specs.
  • Quantity. The old order quantity was chosen against old prices, so re-price it here before you copy it across.

Every order runs through a pre-press quality check and a digital proof, so anything that does not line up gets flagged before the press runs rather than after the box arrives.

Ratings, both printers

UPrinting questions

Common Questions

Eight answers: whether UPrinting is legit, who fixes a wrong order, what 4OVER4.COM adds, matching products, 99.8% on time, samples, price with free proofs, and the five guarantees. Browse every printing question on our FAQs hub.

Is UPrinting a legit site?

Yes. UPrinting is an established online printer with a normal ordering flow and a published catalog, so the real question is fit rather than legitimacy. People compare it on range and on price at volume. 4OVER4.COM has printed since 1999 for 150,000+ businesses, carries 1,000+ products on 60+ paper stocks, and backs every order with five written guarantees covering quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and satisfaction.

Who handles a print order that arrives wrong?

4OVER4.COM does, under the five guarantees (quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and ultimate satisfaction) that come with every order. Raise it with the team and the order gets put right rather than argued over. The pre-press quality check before printing exists to stop most of those cases, and the 99.8% on-time delivery rate covers the other common failure, a date that slips.

What makes 4OVER4.COM a better UPrinting alternative?

4OVER4.COM offers 60+ paper stocks compared to UPrinting's more limited selection, plus specialty finishes like Spot UV, foil stamping, and Suede lamination. A coin-based loyalty program rewards every order, and five guarantees cover quality, pricing, delivery, service, and satisfaction.

Does 4OVER4.COM have the same products as UPrinting?

4OVER4.COM carries 1,000+ products, which covers everything UPrinting offers and then some. Business cards, postcards, flyers, banners, brochures, stickers, and booklets, plus specialty items like bookmarks, door hangers, and custom packaging. If you are also comparing other options, check out the Axiomprint alternative page for another side-by-side breakdown.

How fast does 4OVER4.COM ship compared to UPrinting?

4OVER4.COM maintains a 99.8% on-time delivery rate, and 82% of orders ship ahead of schedule. Same-day printing is available on select products. UPrinting offers standard turnaround options but does not publish comparable delivery performance data. For a reorder moved from UPrinting, the digital proof comes first, and the date runs from your approval.

Can I get samples before placing a full order?

Yes. 4OVER4.COM offers free sample kits so you can feel the paper stocks and see the print quality firsthand. It is the easiest way to compare quality against what you have been getting from UPrinting without any financial commitment.

Is 4OVER4.COM more expensive than UPrinting?

Pricing is competitive across the board, and 4OVER4.COM includes free file review and digital proofs with every order. No hidden setup fees. The loyalty coin program also reduces your cost per order over time, making it a better long-term value. For more comparisons, visit the Bannerbuzz alternative page.

Does 4OVER4.COM offer a quality guarantee?

4OVER4.COM backs every order with five guarantees: quality, price match, on time every time, customer service, and ultimate satisfaction. If something is not right, they make it right. UPrinting publishes no price match, so on a like for like quote the 110% match is the one that changes what you pay.
