What are MiniCards?
MiniCards are compact business cards designed for short, focused designs. They’re smaller than standard business cards, which gives them a more distinctive look and makes them useful for quick contact details, tags, small promotional pieces, or simple brand uses.
They’re printed double-sided in full colour and come in one small format: 70 x 28mm.
Is this right for you?
This works well if you want:
- A smaller card that stands out from standard sizes
- A simple layout with just the essentials
- Something that can work as a mini business card, hang tag, or tiny bookmark
Compared to standard Business Cards:
- Smaller and more minimal in layout
- Less space for detailed information
- Better suited to concise designs and short text
- Available in fewer paper options than standard Business Cards

What makes MiniCards different?
The main difference is the size.
Because MiniCards are so compact, they work best when the design is focused on just a few elements, like:
- A name
- A logo
- A website or handle
- A short message
MiniCards are also useful beyond traditional networking cards, including as:
- Hang tags
- Tiny bookmarks
- Small promotional pieces
Customisation
- Full-colour printing is available on both sides
- Original gives you a choice of matte or gloss
- Luxe gives you an uncoated finish and 8 seam colour options
| While the front of every card in your pack will have the same image, you can have up to 100 different back designs when using MOO’s own Printfinity option! Please note, Printfinity options may be limited on some MOO designs. |
What to know before ordering
- There’s less room for text than on a standard business card
- Small text can become hard to read, so simpler layouts work better
- Original is better for bright, coated print finishes
- Luxe is better if you want extra thickness and a more tactile feel
- If you’re uploading your own artwork, MOO provides MiniCard templates and artwork guidelines on the product page
