What is the difference between a Basic and Complex Die-Cut Shape?

When you order die-cutting, the shape you choose falls into one of two pricing categories, and you can see the cost for each instantly with the online price calculator.

• Basic shape: simple, clean outlines such as circles, ovals, squares, and rounded rectangles. These use standard tooling and carry the lower price.
• Complex shape: intricate custom contours with detailed curves, sharp points, or interior cutouts that follow a more elaborate design. The added tooling detail is reflected in the price.

Because pricing for both is available instantly online, you can compare a basic outline against a complex one before you commit and pick the option that fits your design and budget.
