Question
How long does production take for standard orders?
Answer
Production time depends on the product, the turnaround you pick, and your shipping method.
| Turnaround | Typical timing |
|---|---|
| Default | About 3 to 5 business days on many popular products; business cards, flyers, and postcards commonly run about 3 business days |
| Rush | Down to same day or next day on many items, for an added charge; same-day service runs from New York City on select items when the order is approved by the posted cutoff, typically noon for simple jobs with no custom finishing |
| Specialty | Letterpress, die-cutting, and other custom-finished work can take 10 to 15+ business days depending on complexity |
- Check the turnaround menu on your product page for the exact options.
- Production begins after you approve your proof, so approving early keeps rush timelines on track.
- Job complexity and current order volume can shift turnaround, so share your deadline when requesting a quote and the team will confirm a specific lead time.
- Production time is separate from shipping transit.
- Options can change, so confirm current details on the product page or with support.
