Permalink Reply by Michelle Denise on January 4, 2012 at 10:39am This is a comprehensive list, I must say! Business cards are small but interesting materials to design; especially that die-cut shapes and a wide variety of stocks are now used in the market. Online printing has also helped popularize business cards further because it's now easier for entrepreneurs to purchase their cards from their own homes or offices.

Permalink Reply by Misha Burns on July 18, 2012 at 7:16pm I would definitely add Kozzi to the list.; Actually, they don't specifically cater to business cards, as they are more of a stock image site. But they do have plenty of vectors and photos that would look great on the cards.

I was able to get 1,000 Die Cut 2-Sided Color Business Cards with Bleeds and UV Coating on both sides.
The results were phenomenal.

If I ever need to order cards again I'd go with UPrinting. Their quality and turnaround time is unbeatable.
