Question

Will 16pt Business Cards cost a lot more than 14pt?

Answer

The jump from 14pt to 16pt stock usually costs only a little more, and the difference is smallest on modest order sizes. On small runs you might see just a few dollars between the two weights.

Order sizeTypical price gap (14pt to 16pt)
Under 500A few dollars
500 to 2,000Modest but noticeable
2,000 and upWider, though still reasonable

Volume pricing works in your favor on either stock, so the per-card cost falls as you order more. If a slightly heavier, more substantial feel matters for your brand, the upgrade to 16pt is usually an easy call.
