Hole Punch Business Cards

The standard hole punch diameter is typically 0.25 inches (1/4 inch), which comfortably fits standard keychain rings and lanyard clips. Some vendors offer custom hole sizes or multiple punch positions depending on the intended use, such as binder attachment or product tagging.

The hole is usually punched in a corner or along an edge of the card, and positioning is customizable based on vendor capabilities. Corner punches work well for keychains and hang tags, while edge punches suit lanyard or binder attachments.

Common options include 14pt, 16pt, and 100lb cardstock, available in matte, gloss, or uncoated finishes. Additional finishing choices like UV coating or soft-touch laminate add durability and a premium feel, which is especially useful for cards that see frequent handling, such as loyalty or membership cards.

Minimum order quantities typically start as low as 50-100 cards, depending on the print provider, with standard quantity tiers at 250, 500, 1000, 2500, and 5000+. Bulk ordering usually offers volume discounts, making larger runs more cost-effective for ongoing loyalty or marketing programs.

Standard production typically takes 3-7 business days, with an additional 2-5 business days for delivery depending on shipping method. Rush or expedited options are often available for time-sensitive orders, though turnaround times vary by print vendor and order complexity.
