Question
How much more is double sided printing?
Answer
Double-sided printing adds only a small premium over single-sided cards, usually just pennies more per card. You are already paying for the card stock and setup, so that second side is cheap real estate for a logo, QR code, tagline, or extra contact details.
- Small upcharge: the cost difference over single-sided is minimal.
- Bulk savings: per-card cost drops sharply at 500 and 1,000+ quantities.
- More value: the back can hold a map, hours, social handles, a mini service list, or a promo.
| Quantity | Per-card cost |
|---|---|
| 250 | Affordable for any business |
| 500+ | Lower per card |
| 1,000+ | Best value |
The exact price still depends on paper type, quantity, and finish, but since the extra cost is so small, double-sided is usually worth it: the added space to communicate tends to pay for itself through stronger response rates.
