Standard business cards in most regions measure 3.5 x 2 inches (89 x 51mm), and that’s the size most wallets, card holders, and card scanners are designed around. Straying too far from this can mean your card doesn’t fit where people expect it to.
Paper Weight Matters
Business cards are handled constantly, so thin paper wears out fast. A heavier stock — 300gsm or above — holds up better and feels more premium in hand. Lighter stock is fine for high-volume giveaways where cost matters more than longevity.
One Side or Two?
Single-sided cards keep things simple and are the most common choice. Double-sided cards give you room for a second language, a map, social handles, or a QR code, without cluttering the front.
