Spot UV Business Cards
Spot UV Business Cards
The card people can't stop touching. Spot UV business cards place glossy, raised-look accents — your logo, name, or pattern — on a velvety matte or soft touch laminated card.
- Glossy spot UV accents on a matte base
- Choose matte or soft touch lamination
- Accents on one or both sides
- Thick 16pt laminated stock
- Standard, slim, and skinny sizes
- Standard or rounded corners
Contrast is the luxury
Spot UV works because of the collision: light hits the card and only the coated shapes flash, floating in glossy relief against the soft matte surface. Run a thumb across it and you feel the design. It's the signature move of agencies, studios, luxury services, and anyone whose card doubles as a portfolio piece.
Make them yours
Choose matte lamination for a sleek base or soft touch for full velvet, then apply spot UV to one or both sides. Go classic 3.5″ × 2″ or stand out with slim 3.5″ × 1.75″ and 3.5″ × 1.5″ formats. Design tip: keep spot UV shapes bold and simple — logos, monograms, and patterns beat fine text.
Upload, price, and order in minutes

Spot UV cards FAQ
How do I set up the spot UV area?
Include a separate layer or file marking the areas to coat in 100% black — our artwork check verifies it before production.
Matte or soft touch base — which one?
Soft touch feels velvety and mutes color slightly; matte is smoother and truer to color. Both make the gloss pop.

Real metal accents?
Metallic Foil Business Cards stamp actual gold or silver foil.

Everything clear before you order.
Every order gets a free file review before printing. Here's what to know about specs, artwork, proofing, and delivery.
Specifications
Quantity: 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 2500, 5000. Configuration: Standard
Artwork requirements
Upload print-ready files as PDF (preferred), AI, EPS, JPG, or PNG at 300 DPI in CMYK color. Extend backgrounds 0.125" past the trim edge (bleed) and keep text and logos at least 0.125" inside it (safe area). Every file is checked by our team before production — if something's off, we'll contact you before anything prints.
Proofing and production
Production time starts after your artwork passes file review — not at checkout. If your order requires proof approval, we'll send the proof and the production clock starts once you approve it. Turnaround options for each product are shown in the configurator above.
Shipping and delivery
Delivery time is production time plus transit. Once your order ships you'll get a tracking number by email. Transit depends on your address and the shipping method selected at checkout — larger format items may ship separately from small-format printing.
