Why Choose Our Printed Cards
Custom Printed Cards That Create Personal Brand Connections
A well-crafted printed card inside a package — a thank you note, a brand story card, a product care guide — creates a personal connection between brand and consumer that digital communication cannot replicate. Branded Boxes produces custom printed cards across the full range of sizes, stocks, and finishes for packaging inserts, retail shelf talkers, hang tags, and direct mail applications.
Printed Card Applications
We produce printed cards for every application in the brand communication spectrum. Packaging insert cards thank customers for their purchase and invite repeat engagement. Product cards explain features, usage instructions, and care information. Brand story cards communicate the values and narrative behind your product. Shelf talkers and shelf strips direct retail shoppers to your products. Event cards add a personal touch to corporate gifts and experiential marketing.
Stock and Finish Options
- 14pt-32pt coated card stock
- Uncoated, linen, and felt stocks for premium tactile feel
- Gloss, matte, and soft-touch lamination
- Spot UV for design emphasis
- Foil stamping for luxury brand applications
The Power of the In-Package Printed Card
E-commerce brands that include a printed thank you card or brand story card in their packaging consistently report higher repeat purchase rates and more social media sharing than brands that ship without inserts. The card creates a human moment in what is otherwise a transactional interaction. A well-written, beautifully printed card communicates that a real person cares about the customer's experience — and that communication drives loyalty.
Retail Shelf Talkers and Point-of-Purchase Cards
Printed cards are not limited to in-package applications. Shelf talkers — cards that attach to retail shelves in front of or beside products — are proven drivers of retail sell-through. They communicate product benefits, price promotions, and brand messaging to shoppers at the moment of decision. Our shelf talker production covers standard retail formats including J-hooks, header cards, and shelf strips.

We offer 14pt, 16pt, 18pt, and 32pt coated card stock as standard options. Specialty stocks include uncoated, linen-textured, felt-textured, and kraft stocks for brands seeking specific tactile experiences. Thickness and texture significantly affect perceived quality.
Can printed cards include variable data such as customer names?
Yes. Digital printing allows variable data on printed cards — unique customer names, order numbers, personalized messages, or QR codes linking to personalized landing pages. Variable data printing is popular for e-commerce thank you cards and loyalty program communications.
