A smoothly coated classic

Polished and professional, matte finish business cards are always in style. Matte paper has been a customer favorite for years, and it’s easy to see why. The smooth, low-contrast finish reduces glare and deepens colors, making them a great option for readability and modern designs like black business cards.

Lettering

Oct 12, 2025 | marolyn m. | Verified Buyer
I cannot see the print it is so light
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that the lettering on your Matte Business Cards appeared too light and difficult to read. That’s certainly not the experience we want you to have, and we appreciate the photo you provided as a reference. Please note that designs created in RGB color mode can sometimes appear different once printed, as our production process uses CMYK, which may affect how certain colors, especially lighter tones, translate on paper. To help resolve this, we’ve taken the initiative to adjust your artwork and have already processed a no-cost replacement order as a one-time courtesy. You can check your Order History for the updated delivery date. Since this replacement is part of your original order, you won’t receive a new confirmation email, but you will receive a separate email with tracking details once it ships. We truly hope this demonstrates our commitment to making things right and providing a better experience. Your feedback has been shared with our team for review, and we thank you for giving us the opportunity to assist.

Okay

The cards printed nicely, but be careful when customizing it since the font came out way too small, even though while I was designing it on the computer it looked good.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear the print quality met your expectations, though we’re sorry the font size didn’t appear as expected on your finished cards. We recommend using the proof option that's available to you to get a better idea of what your finished product will look like. Our care team is always available to assist with any product or design-related queries.
