A natural surface for a more personal hello. Uncoated paper invites a pen, a note, a human touch.

Why choose uncoated business cards

  • Pencil and ballpoint both work

    With no coating on top, the paper absorbs ink and takes graphite. A handwritten time or a signature stays put instead of smearing across a shiny surface.

  • A paper feel people notice

    Uncoated stock has a soft, slightly toothy surface. It suits brands built on craft, care or a personal touch, where a glossy card would feel off.

  • Kept simple on purpose

    The choices are the ones that matter for a writable card: printed sides, corners, orientation and a square shape. There are no coatings or foils to weigh up.

Before you order

Colors will look duller than my screen
Uncoated paper absorbs a little ink, so bright colors print softer and deep blacks look slightly warm. That is the look people choose it for. If your brand depends on a vivid color, compare against the glossy card first.

Finishing upgrades

How people use it

  • Appointment reminders at the front desk

    Print your practice on the front and leave the back blank for the date and time. Staff write the next visit in pencil, so a change is an eraser away.

  • A note inside every bakery box

    Use the gray back for lines that say Name, Pickup and Notes. Staff fill them in with a pen, and the card doubles as a thank you.

  • A square tag for handmade goods

    Switch the shape to square and punch the card to tie it to a jar, a candle or a bouquet. Write the scent or the flower on the back by hand.

Good to know

What pens work on uncoated business cards?

Pencil, ballpoint and gel pens all write cleanly. A wet fountain pen can feather slightly on any uncoated paper, so test one card before you sign a stack.

Can I add foil or a raised gloss to an uncoated card?

Not on this page. Uncoated is sold without special finishes. For foil, choose the foil accent card, which offers a glossy or a matte paper.

Should I leave the back blank for writing?

If you write a lot, yes. Front only keeps the whole back open for notes. If you want printed lines to write on, choose the gray back, which prints in black and gray at a lower price than full color.

Will a dark background work on uncoated paper?

It will print, but a large solid dark area can look slightly mottled on raw paper and any text reversed out of it gets harder to read. Light backgrounds with dark text suit this stock better.

Small text will be hard to read

Ink spreads a touch on uncoated paper, so very thin fonts can thicken. Use regular or medium weights for contact details, avoid hairline type below about 8 pt, and keep strong contrast between text and background.

Will they arrive before I need them?

The date under the price is Standard delivery for the quantity you pick, counted from your order with printing included. If that is too late, the cart shows each quicker speed these cards offer and what it costs.
