Raised Spot UV Business Cards

Raised spot UV is one of our premium tactile finishes inside the wider business cards printing range, a clear-gloss cousin of foil for when you want shine without metal. It lands flat spot UV's same glossy contrast, then lifts it off the surface so it reads and feels richer. Want the gloss smooth and level with the stock instead of raised? The Spot UV Business Cards give you that same coating laid flush at a lower starting price.

The clear gloss adds little between the first two set sizes: 250 cards cost $130.72, just $21.97 more than the first set for 150 extra cards. At 1000 the set is $361.37, about 36 cents a card. The tiers below show each set total and the saving at every step.

What Is Raised Spot UV on a Business Card

Raised spot UV is a clear gloss coating applied to a shape you choose, cured under ultraviolet light and built up so it sits off the card with real height, while the velvet around it stays matte.

How Is It Different From Raised Foil and Dual Raised

Raised Foil Business Cards use the same lifted build in gold, silver or holographic metal instead of clear gloss. Dual Raised Business Cards put raised spot UV with one raised foil, or two raised foils, on the front of one card. This card's own choices are laid out below the way the live configurator groups them.

Design it without a designer

Draw the clear gloss where a thumb will land, the logo, the name or one icon, and leave the rest of the card matte so the contrast does the work. Our business card design templates give you a starting layout; change the colors and copy in the online editor, then mark the raised area on its own.

Art made in your own software goes on the raised spot UV blank template, drawn at the real 2" x 3.5" trim with the 1/8" bleed and the safe margin in place. Mark where the raised coating should land, drop your art in and upload.

How Many Raised Spot UV Cards Should You Order

You order this card in one of four sets, 100, 250, 500 or 1000. With the small gap between the first two sets, 250 is the cheaper buy for anyone who hands out cards every week. The list below shows each set total with the cost per card.

How Do Raised Spot UV Cards Compare to Other Finishes

For a rainbow shift instead of clear gloss, Raised Holographic Business Cards carry raised holographic foil, and the everyday Standard Business Cards cost far less when you want a plain card beside the showpiece. In the panel below this card sits next to Standard, Kraft and Die-Cut Business Cards with each starting price.

Tips for a Raised Spot UV File That Prints Clean

The raised gloss prints from its own spot UV layer, and the press builds it up only where that layer says, so mark it clearly and keep it inside the safe margin, off the bleed. The do's and don'ts list further down covers resolution, CMYK color, bleed and the safe margin.
