Semi-transparent, extra memorable

Ready to take introductions and meetings from standard to standout? Frosted business cards have a translucent, extra appealing look that draws people to your design, your message – and your business. Durable, thick plastic and smooth, rounded corners make your card even more interesting.

More ways to connect

With a long-lasting, attention-grabbing material, frosted business cards give you a lot of options. You can add your info and use them as contact cards for your top customers. You can have them be part of an exclusive membership or loyalty program. Or you can even add a QR code and make them scannable smart cards that give easy access to your website or signup form at shows, conferences and other events.

Simple & easy design process

Once you decide to go with frosted business cards, we make it easy to create a look you love. You can upload an existing design or choose from a variety of templates created specifically with the semi-transparent look in mind. Before you complete your order, check out a 3D preview to see how the translucent plastic looks from any angle. And if you see something that looks off, you can always reach out to us for help.

Legal restrictions: We cannot print any design that features elements similar to ID cards, credit cards or bank cards.

Color didnt show up well and was not as clear as the proof. Parts of the letters were surrounded by white edges even though this also wasnt on the proof. Disappointing.

Small Texts + Difficult to read because of poor color contrast

I always print my business cards with Vistaprint (great service over all). This last print was the problem - I decided to go with the premium finish by having a semi transparent card. Following the step I filled in my details in the template and applied my banding. However when the cards arrive - my assistant quickly alerted me that they are not readable. Please tell me what can be done - I can send pics of the final out but I am in South America and shipping to the US is costly. Please help.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:

The cards are great overall! There is a little bit of inconsistency in the printing from card to card.

Frequently asked questions

No – our frosted business cards don’t include that technology. While you can add a QR code, we don’t (and legally can’t) offer the black “mag strips” or NFC chips for them.

Though you can use our frosted business cards for alternative uses like loyalty programs or generic membership cards, we cannot legally print any design that looks like an ID card, credit card or bank card.

Yes, you can! We offer both clear business cards and white plastic business cards (that you can print any background color on).

Yes, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, backside printing is not available with frosted business cards. Next, any area in your design that’s white will print as white, so be sure to check the preview before approving your design. And lastly, we don’t recommend full-bleed images or designs, since that’ll minimize the visual effect of the material.

Yes, frosted cards are roughly 3.5" x 2", the same measurements as a standard business card. For more info about card dimensions, check out our business card size guide.
