PVC Card

Custom PVC cards provide businesses, schools, organizations, and event teams with a flexible way to create branded identification and credentials. Instead of using one fixed card format, this RAFFLESTAG PVC card is available in six dimensions, so the size can match the amount of information and artwork required.

Available sizes include 3.50 × 2.25, 2.75 × 4, 3.25 × 4.75, 3.50 × 5, 4 × 5.50, and 4.25 × 6.25 inches. That selection makes the product useful for everything from relatively compact identification cards to larger conference and event credentials.

For organizations building a complete identification setup, these PVC cards can be combined with RAFFLESTAG's custom lanyard and card products. The category includes complementary products for displaying and carrying identification.

Choose a Card Size Around Your Layout

Card size affects how comfortably you can arrange names, logos, titles, event details, and other artwork. A compact format works well when the design includes only essential identification, while a larger format provides more room for designs with several visual elements.

Available options include:

• 3.50 × 2.25 inches
• 2.75 × 4 inches
• 3.25 × 4.75 inches
• 3.50 × 5 inches
• 4 × 5.50 inches
• 4.25 × 6.25 inches

When selecting a size, consider the artwork as a complete layout rather than choosing dimensions first and trying to fit the design afterward. A logo, person's name, position, organization, event title, and other necessary information all compete for available space.

Glossy, Matte, or Frost Finishing

You can order the card with three finish options. Glossy is the included option and carries no additional per-card charge. Matte and frost finishing are both available for an additional $0.15 each.

These choices let you select the appearance that best fits the intended design. Buyers who want the standard included selection can stay with glossy, while matte and frost provide alternative surface appearances for projects that call for a different presentation.

Because finish is a selectable product option, decide on the intended visual treatment while preparing the artwork rather than treating it as an afterthought.

Add a Hole When the Card Will Be Worn

RAFFLESTAG offers the PVC card with or without a hole. The no-hole configuration is free, while adding a hole costs an additional $0.05 per card.

This choice matters when planning how people will carry or display their credentials. Cards intended for wallets, holders, or other presentation methods may not require a hole. For wearable applications, the hole option provides another configuration to consider.

Buyers who want additional protection or a different carrying arrangement can also explore RAFFLESTAG card holder options. Card holders can be paired with identification products for offices, schools, conferences, trade shows, and other badge-based applications.

Individual Names for Personalized Card Sets

Organizations ordering cards for a group can add individual names for an additional $0.15 per card. This option is useful when you need to adapt a common branded layout for multiple people.

For example, an event may use one overall visual identity while issuing a different card to each attendee, speaker, organizer, or team member. Likewise, a workplace can maintain consistent branding across employee cards while changing the individual name from card to card.

Variable-name personalization can therefore help maintain a coordinated appearance without requiring every card to use identical information.

Useful for Conferences and Events

The combination of multiple sizes, optional holes, individual names, and three finishes makes these PVC cards adaptable to event credentials.

Larger formats can provide room for prominent names, event branding, or role information. Organizers may use personalized cards to distinguish speakers, attendees, organizers, committee members, or other participant groups through their artwork.

For wearable credentials, buyers can also consider combining the card with a custom lanyard. This creates a coordinated badge setup for conferences, exhibitions, staff identification, and organized events.

Business, Staff, and Membership Applications

PVC cards are also useful beyond short-term events. They can be designed for employee identification, membership programs, visitor credentials, clubs, schools, committees, and other organizations that need printed cards with consistent branding.

A company might use its logo and employee information, while a membership organization could build the design around its name and member details. The individual-name option is particularly relevant when one visual template will be used across multiple cardholders.

The minimum quantity is only five pieces, so the product can accommodate small card requirements as well as larger group orders.

Preparing Your Custom Card Artwork

The product page provides an artwork-upload option with a maximum file size of 10 MB. Before uploading, organize the design around the exact card size selected for the order.

Pay particular attention to the visual hierarchy. Keep the information people need to recognize quickly—such as a person's name, organization, event title, or role easy to distinguish within the overall design.

If you're adding a hole, consider its placement when arranging key artwork. Keeping critical visual elements away from the intended attachment area can help create a cleaner finished layout.

Building a Complete ID Setup

A PVC card is often only one part of an identification system. Depending on how the card will be used, you can pair it with lanyards, card holders, or retractable accessories.

RAFFLESTAG's broader lanyard and card collection provides related options for businesses and organizations planning coordinated staff, visitor, school, or event identification.

Start by determining the information each card needs to display. Then select an appropriate size, decide whether a hole is required, choose the desired finish, and determine whether individual-name personalization is needed. This sequence keeps the card configuration closely aligned with its actual use.
