Question
What do designers charge to make a business card?
Answer
Design cost depends on who does the work and how custom it needs to be. Many print shops include free templates and online design tools that can reduce or eliminate a separate designer fee entirely, so weigh that before hiring out.
| Scope | Typical budget |
|---|---|
| Freelance card design (small business) | $50 to $150 |
| Specialty print prep (foil, spot UV, die-cut) | Add $25 to $75 |
| Full brand identity package | $300 to $1,000 |
If your needs are simple, a template plus a clean logo often gets you a professional card for the cost of printing alone. Save the freelance or agency budget for when you want a fully custom identity.
