Question
What paper thickness works best for standard business card size?
Answer
Thickness changes the feel of a card without changing its 3.5 x 2 inch footprint, so you can pick a weight purely for the impression you want.
| Thickness | Feel | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 14pt | Everyday, slightly flexible | High-volume handouts and general use |
| 16pt | Credit-card sturdy | Professionals who want extra durability |
| 32pt | Ultra-thick, rigid | A premium, memorable first impression |
Thicker stock costs a little more per card but leaves a stronger tactile impression. The dimensions stay the same at every weight.
