Thick matte business cards are 16pt cards with a smooth matte finish that cuts glare and feels substantial in the hand. Matte business cards, also called 16pt or premium matte business cards, are our standard card: thicker than most everyday cards and easy to read under any light. Full color on the back costs nothing extra.
Thick enough to notice
At 16pt the card feels sturdier than a typical everyday card, so it holds up in a wallet or a pocket.
No glare
The matte surface keeps text easy to read under bright office or store lighting and gives colors a calm, even look.
Our best value at 1,000
1,000 thick matte cards are priced well under the big online printers' thick cards, with printing on both sides included.
Best for: Professionals and small businesses that want a solid, clean card: consultants, agents, salons, studios and offices.

What is the difference between 14pt and 16pt business cards?
16pt is thicker and stiffer than 14pt. It feels more substantial in the hand and bends less in a wallet.
Is matte better than glossy for business cards?
Matte has no glare and looks calm and professional; glossy makes colors look brighter. For text-heavy or minimal designs, matte is usually the better choice.
How much do thick matte business cards cost?
They start at $45. The best value is 1,000 cards, and printing on both sides is included.
Can I write on matte business cards?
A matte coating takes pen better than gloss. For lots of handwriting, linen or kraft paper is easier still.
How fast do they ship?
Ships in about 6 business days after proof approval. Express and Rush are available on this card for an added fee.
