A business card may be small, but it carries a lot of meaning. The moment someone holds your card for the first time, they form an impression of your brand in seconds. At Jukebox, we believe that moment should feel special for everyone, whether you are a small business just getting started, a design studio building a client’s identity or an enterprise brand ordering cards across multiple teams.
Our customers choose Jukebox because our team speaks their language. We work closely with designers, businesses and creative studios every day, and we understand what they need to bring an idea to life. We guide each project with care, keep the process simple and make sure the final cards look exactly the way they were imagined. That level of attention is something we take seriously, and our customers feel it in every order.
In 2025, three respected review teams evaluated Jukebox independently. Forbes Advisor named us their top pick for best business card printing services, Wirecutter praised the clarity, color and premium packaging, and TechRadar highlighted our premium papers and specialty options in their review of today’s leading online printers.
All three recognized something our customers already know. Jukebox business cards simply feel better than those from typical online printers.
Start With Better Materials
Paper sets the tone before anyone reads a word on your card. Most online printers use 14pt to 16pt stock because it is inexpensive and fast to run, but it feels thin and forgettable.
Our standard cards begin at a thick 20pt, which creates a more confident, substantial feel the moment someone holds it.
We print on some of the finest papers available, including Mohawk Superfine, Neenah, GMUND, Fedrigoni and Colorplan. Our Colorplan cards were also featured in New York Magazine’s Strategist, where their bold color range and tactile quality were highlighted.
Once the material is selected, the next step is enhancing your design.
Use Finishes That Make an Impression
Finishes add personality and help your card stand out. They create shine, texture or depth and turn a simple layout into something memorable. Here are the specialty finishes Jukebox is known for and how they transform your card.
Hot Foil Stamping
We use traditional hot foil stamping with real copper dies. It’s the classic method for a reason. The heat and pressure give you crisp edges, a bright reflective shine, and a subtle impression you can actually feel.
Foil printing is pure luxury, and we keep it that way. We only use true hot foil, never the digital alternatives. Copper dies create deeper impressions, cleaner details, and a richer, more elegant finish. It’s why our foil pieces have that unmistakable look the moment you pick them up.
Spot Gloss
Spot Gloss adds a reflective highlight to areas like logos or lettering, but the way it is produced makes all the difference. At Jukebox, we use a true screen-printed UV gloss, not the digital simulations used by most online printers. Our Spot Gloss runs on dedicated screen-printing presses where this finish is the only job they perform, allowing us to achieve a smoother, richer shine with incredibly crisp detail. With a precise 420 linescreen, even the smallest design elements appear sharp and intentional. It is one of the premium touches we have perfected over the years, and you can see the difference the moment you tilt the card in the light.
Painted Edges
Painted edges are one of those small details that make a big impression. We mix every color by hand and brush it on with a smooth, even finish so the sides of your card look clean and intentional. You can match your brand color perfectly, go bright with fluorescents, or choose a Pantone that ties everything together. It is such a fun way to customize your card and give it a little moment of personality when someone picks it up.
Custom Shapes
A custom shape can make your business card unforgettable. If you have a shape in mind, we can bring it to life using a traditional die for clean, precise edges and a perfect silhouette. From soft curves to bold cutouts to completely unique outlines, there is so much room to be creative. Die cutting is one of those finishes that instantly shows personality and gives your card a look no standard size can match.
Duplex and Triplex Builds
Duplex cards are one of the most unique ways to make a business card stand out. By pairing premium cardstocks together, you get a thicker and more substantial card with a completely custom look. This is a signature Jukebox specialty and a favorite among designers because every layer is chosen with intention. You can mix colors, textures, or contrasting tones to create something that feels instantly memorable.
Triplex is the extra thick version of this idea. It uses our Mohawk Superfine UltraWhite on the front and back with a colored seam of your choice in the center layer. The result feels modern, refined, and impossible to overlook. Duplex and Triplex builds add personality and presence, giving your card a premium look and feel that no standard stock can match.
Embossing for Tactile Detail
Embossing creates a raised, sculpted detail that gives your design real depth. It’s perfect for lifting logos, patterns, and textured backgrounds off the page with a touchable finish that feels intentionally crafted. Paired with our 100% cotton stocks, the embossing has a softness and luxury you notice the moment you hold it.
Materials That Feel Premium
Paper is part of your design language. The weight, texture and color of the stock all influence how your artwork prints and how your card feels in someone’s hand. At Jukebox, our selection includes some of the most respected paper mills in the world, along with specialty stocks you simply won’t find with typical online printers.
We offer ultra-white options like Mohawk Superfine Ultrawhite, one of the brightest and cleanest whites available for crisp, modern design. Our collection also includes textured papers like our Cannabis stock, elegant Pearl Whites, rich Black stocks and the full range of premium Colorplan shades. These materials give your card a look and feel that is truly elevated and impossible to replicate on standard paper.
Colorplan business cards produced with White Ink
Our Soft Touch business cards are known for their smooth, velvety feel. This is the real Soft Touch with a rich matte finish that feels almost fabric-like in your hand. It works beautifully with minimal layouts as well as more versatile designs that need a clean and modern look. It is also one of our most cost-effective premium cards, and it has become a favorite choice for many designers, creatives, and businesses. If you want a matte card that feels genuinely soft and elevated, this is the one.
Choose the Right Print Method
HP Indigo 7 Color Printing
Color is emotional. When it is right, your design feels alive. Our HP Indigo presses print a wider range of tones than standard digital printers, which means your brand colors stay true to how you designed them. With all seven Indigo colors working together, we can push the color gamut far beyond the limits of traditional four-color digital printing. Reds appear warmer, blues look deeper and gradients move smoothly.
To help customers choose confidently, we created a Jukebox Color Swatch Book with real Indigo-printed pages. Brand colors matter, and when you select a specific shade or spot color from this book, it becomes the exact color we use on every future order. There is no shifting and no guessing. You get the same consistent color every time, which is a big reason our business cards are trusted by so many designers, creatives and businesses.
Offset Printing
Offset printing opens the door to a whole new kind of creativity for our team. It lets us work with specialty papers, match exact Pantone colours, and build layered finishes and varnishes with the kind of hands-on control that makes print feel exciting again. It’s the process we turn to when a project needs that extra bit of craft and detail.
Since we offer both HP Indigo and Offset, we choose the process that truly brings your design to life. Customers who understand printing often request Offset because they know how much it can elevate a project. Having both worlds in our space is one of the things that makes Jukebox stand out. Our team has the tools, the experience, and the passion to create something that feels genuinely custom from start to finish.
Expect Color That Matches Your Brand
At Jukebox, we have one of the largest Pantone collections in the industry, which means we can match almost any spot color with incredible accuracy. Pair this with our Offset Printing and you get the highest level of color control available. Spot colors print rich and consistent, project after project, and your brand tones stay exactly the way they were designed. This level of precision is a big part of what sets Jukebox apart for designers and brands that care deeply about color.
Get Specialty Projects Made Properly
Some ideas go beyond preset templates, and this is where Jukebox truly shines. When you need something fully custom, our team opens the door to every premium process we offer. This is where you can go all in with your ideas. Our custom quote team works closely with our specialty production staff to take even the most ambitious concepts and bring them to life with the care and craftsmanship we are known for.

Experience Packaging That Feels Premium
Your cards should arrive feeling important. At Jukebox, every order is hand packed, checked carefully and presented in our signature box. We believe the unboxing moment is part of the story, and your brand deserves a presentation that feels thoughtful from the very first look.
There is something satisfying about lifting the lid and seeing your cards arranged neatly instead of arriving loose in a basic cardboard shipping box. Quality packaging was part of our tradition from the beginning, and we continue it today because the final detail matters just as much as the design itself.
