Question

What's the minimum quantity of cards I can print per design?

Answer

For standard business cards, the minimum quantity per design is 100 cards. If you need several different designs, you have two clean ways to handle it without ordering separate jobs.

  • Variable data printing: personalize individual pieces (names, titles, contact info) within a single batch.
  • Sets or lots: print multiple designs that share the same specs and stock but differ in artwork.
  • Per-design floor: the 100-card minimum applies to each standard design, not the whole order.

So a five-person team can each get their own card in one order, either as personalized variable data or as separate design sets.

The minimum is set per product: most business cards start at 100, some at 50, magnet cards at 25 and some premium cards at 250 or 500. In a sets order, the Total Sets field multiplies the chosen quantity, so every design gets the same quantity; one order cannot mix different quantities across designs. Check the product page for the exact minimum.
