Frequently Asked Questions
How many trading cards can I order?
You can order as few as 25 cards or buy more up to 10,000 cards — perfect for small runs or large promotions, respectively.
Can I print multiple card designs in one order?
Each order is for one design only. If you want to print different card designs, you must place separate orders for each version.
How long does production and shipping take?
Production takes 2-6 business days, depending on the order size. This timeline excludes holidays and weekends. Shipping is also not factored into the turnaround time.
Can I upload my design for the trading cards?
Yes. You can easily upload your artwork for your trading card designs. We also offer layout templates to help create your card styles and art.
What's the best way to design or market a trading card?
Consider creating a "limited edition" series with "enhanced" designs of your existing cards. You can then use foil accents or a premium matte finish to differentiate your card designs and make the limited edition cards highly collectible.
Can I get help with my trading card design?
Yes. You can use our free layout templates to help measure and estimate your card sizes or consult our graphics team. PrintRunner is here to help make your cards look amazing, whether it's through tools or expert collaborations.
