Semi-transparent, extra memorable

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.

The suggested color that matches the design looks acceptable on the preview. When I received the cards, the text was not readable over the frosted printing and I had to spend money and re-order. The proof I approved online did not necessarily match what I received and it was an expensive fix.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We are sincerely sorry to hear about the frustration regarding the readability of your frosted business cards. We understand how disappointing it is when the physical product doesn't match the digital proof you approved, especially when it results in the additional expense of a re-order. To help us investigate what happened with the print and the legibility of your design, please respond to this email with a few clear images of the cards you received. Having these photos will allow our quality team to review the contrast of the text against the frosted finish and compare it to your original design. Once we receive those images, we will look into your order details and work toward a resolution to help make this right. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Overall, my cods was as expected. I only had one issue my q r code for my card is not working so I will reach out to visit to see if this could be resolved
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that overall your frosted business cards met your expectations. After reviewing the submitted design, we noted that the QR code artwork was blurry and pixelated, which impacted the scanning process in the final print. Also, we attempted to scan the QR code from our end and were unfortunately unable to do so due to the low-resolution file quality. For the best possible results, we recommend using high-resolution files with a minimum of 300 DPI, particularly for important functional elements such as QR codes. To help prevent similar issues in the future, we strongly encourage reviewing the on-screen preview and downloading the PDF proof before finalizing an order, as this can help identify visibility and clarity concerns in advance. Furthermore, we offer professional design services where our graphic design team can help improve and enhance file quality for better print results. Simply submit your request via this link and pay the applicable fees: https://www.vistaprint.com/design A revised version will typically be shared within 24 to 48 hours by email, and you will have the opportunity to request additional adjustments if needed before placing a new order at your convenience. We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention and hope this information helps for future orders. Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to call us at 1-866-207-4955.

I decided to go with the Frosted business card for my husband’s business. Everything looked great on the mock up design until the cards were delivered. We can’t even read what’s on the business card unless it’s directly underneath a bright light. Therefore we’re unable to hand these cards out to clients and we’re now $100 in the hole for 100 business cards. It would’ve been nice if a message popped up when uploading our business logo and contact information that the colors would not be readable on the frosted business cards. Thanks Vista Print.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We regret to hear that you're not happy with your business cards order as you're unable to see the information on the product. We can understand your disappointment and will be happy to see how best we can help with this. To do so, please reply with a photo showing how the print turned out on the cards.

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.
