Details

Eco Friendly Printer prints custom playing cards and card decks with your own artwork on every face and back. Businesses order branded decks as client gifts and trade show giveaways, couples use them as wedding favors, and game designers, teachers and nonprofits print their own card games and learning sets.

Sizes

  • Poker size, 2.5 x 3.5 in, the standard playing card size
  • Bridge size, 2.25 x 3.5 in, a narrower card that is easier to hold in a large hand
  • Tarot size, 2.75 x 4.75 in, for oracle and tarot decks
  • Mini cards, 1.75 x 2.5 in, for travel decks and favors
  • Custom sizes for game cards

A standard deck has 52 cards plus jokers, but custom decks can have any number of cards. Game designers often print 18, 36 or 54 cards per deck depending on the game.

Card stock and finishes

Playing cards need a stock that shuffles smoothly and does not show the card through the back. We print on playing card stock with a smooth or linen finish and round the corners so the cards handle well. Tuck boxes are printed on recycled board, and a printed paper band can replace plastic shrink wrap. If recycled card stock matters for your project, tell us how the cards will be used and we will recommend the most sustainable stock that still plays well.

For other branded giveaways, see bookmarks, stickers and custom notebooks. For game and learning cards in other sizes, see flash cards and trading cards.

How ordering works

Send your artwork for the faces, the back and the tuck box, along with the card size, the number of cards per deck and the number of decks. We will confirm the stock and give you a price and a schedule.

Common questions about custom playing cards

What size are standard playing cards?

Poker-size cards are 2.5 x 3.5 inches. Bridge-size cards are 2.25 x 3.5 inches.

Can every card in the deck have a different design?

Yes. Each face and the back can carry your own artwork, so you can design a full deck or a card game from scratch.

Do custom decks come in a box?

Yes. Each deck can come in a printed tuck box made from recycled board.
