Custom Trading Cards FAQ
1.What Cardstock Is Used for Trading Cards?
Trading cards are typically produced on premium cardstock ranging from 300 to 400 GSM. This thickness provides the ideal balance between durability and flexibility, ensuring the cards can withstand frequent handling while remaining easy to shuffle, sort, and play with. High-quality cardstock also helps enhance the overall feel and longevity of the cards.
2.What Finishes Can Be Applied to Trading Cards?
Trading cards can be enhanced with a variety of finishing options to improve their appearance and durability. Popular choices include gloss varnish, matte lamination, and UV coating. Gloss finishes create a vibrant, shiny look that makes colors stand out, while matte finishes offer a smooth, premium feel with reduced glare. UV coating adds an extra layer of protection against wear and scratches, helping cards maintain their quality over time.
3.What Is the Process for Printing Trading Cards?
The trading card production process typically begins with artwork and layout preparation, followed by selecting the appropriate cardstock, finish, and special effects. Once the specifications are confirmed, the cards move into professional printing, where high-resolution presses ensure sharp details and consistent color reproduction. After printing, additional processes such as lamination, foil stamping, spot UV, embossing, die-cutting, and edge coloring can be applied. The final step includes cutting, quality inspection, and packaging to ensure the cards meet the desired standards.
4.What Is the Turnaround Time for Printing Trading Cards?
The production time for trading cards varies depending on the order quantity, printing specifications, and finishing options selected. Standard orders are typically completed within 15–20 business days after artwork approval. Projects that include premium effects such as foil stamping, holographic finishes, spot UV, embossing, or custom packaging may require additional production time. Shipping time will vary based on the destination and delivery method chosen.
