How will any white areas or text appear on a plastic business card?

Plastic business card production days are 5 business days and 8 business days only. We do not have next-day printing for Plastic business cards. I would suggest to go for standard business cards

Hi Jodie, Thank you for choosing Next Day Flyers as your partner in printing. Unfortunately, our plastic business cards are not made out of recycled material. You may check the websites for the materials we use for our products. Thanks again for your question.

Hi there, Thank you for choosing Next Day Flyers as your partner in printing. The plastic cards that we have are not like credit cards. Those are thicker and harder. The ones we have are thinner and a bit flimsy. Black printing would look better on a white plastic card. Cause if you go for frosted or clear this would still be see-through. For the white plastic cards as long as your design is black then the color of the card would be solid black. I hope I answered all your questions accurately. Again, thank you for reaching out to us.

Great question! The plastic business cards does not have an excellent writability although it can still be written on given sufficient drying time but it is not the best stock for writing. we would recommend going with other business cards printed on cardstock. You can check out the different uncoated cardstock options available here: https://www.nextdayflyers.com/business-card-printing/ Should you want to check the different cardstocks we print our business cards on, you can request for a sample kit for free here: https://module.nextdayflyers.com/sample-kit

No worries. While we can print a QR code on the clear cards if this is included in the artwork, this is not something we recommend as the code may be difficult to scan. Since we do not print white ink on the cards, all white parts or areas in your design will be clear, and all colors may look a bit translucent. If you need a QR code printed on your cards, we would recommend going with other business cards printed on cardstock.
