How do I produce my own CCG / Trading Cards? 

Foremost, you've found our page so you're already dealing with experts on custom printing and with a skilled team who know the trading card world.

Second, you will need to submit your files to us for print. To do this, ensure each unique design is submitted to us in a pdf format for printing. Each card will have a front and back side, ensure each side of all designs include bleed to allow for edge to edge printing.
 

Once you have all your designs setup as individual files you can go ahead and either combine them into a full "set or deck" pdf file which will have each card as the pages 1&2, 3&4, 5&6 etc, or into a zip file.

If your designs all have the same back face on the card, no worries - if needed, we will collate the back into a full file for you. So you only need to supply the back file to us once for ease of submission. Just ensure it is clearly defined as the back card.

Printing Multiple copies of each card respectively, i.e. different quantities for each:
 

We also offer variable quantities of each card (without you needing to duplicate, copy and paste etc). The best way to do this, is to separate your print files into sub-folders titled "x copies". For example, if you have a bunch of designs that require 5 x copies of each to be included, move them into a folder called "5" or "5 copies".

Once this is repeated for all designs, right click the master folder (where all these subfolders reside), and add them to an archive (ZIP or RAR). You can then upload the archive file (zip or rar) into our upload centre.

When ordering, set the "copies" on our page to 1, but change the "how many cards per set" to the full print quantity after all the files will be multiplied. eg - 5 x 10 + 10 x 2 + 1 x 500 = 50 + 20 + 500 = 570 

Packaging & Game Card Boxes To Fit:

We offer boxes which are custom-made to fit your card deck. Because of this, we actually ask that you place the order first. That way, we can be 100% certain as to how much room we need in the box, and we haven't sent you the wrong template ahead of time (causing issues).

We will send you a custom-fit template after your order is placed (within 48hrs).

Rare & Metallic or Holographic Trading Cards

As an alternative to holographic trading cards, we offer a special kind of Metallic finish trading card printing. Instead of stocking various holographic patterns that overlay onto the print sheets (these are expensive per roll and far too many different types to choose from), we instead direct customers to try our Matallic Finish.
