GotPrint rates well on Yelp. The gap shows in the rows GotPrint leaves blank, from on-time rate to cards printed.
Catalog and paper
Where GotPrint's catalog runs short
A much bigger catalog
The 4OVER4.COM catalog runs from business cards to banners, plus specialty pieces GotPrint does not stock.
Paper and finishes
Linen, kraft, metallic pearl and cotton papers, with soft-touch, spot UV, foil and painted edges on the card lines built for them.
Same-day shipping
Order by 12pm ET and many products ship the same day from the Queens plant.
Guarantees in writing
Quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and ultimate satisfaction, five guarantees on every order.
Free design tools
Across the site you get 10,000+ templates, a free online designer (Canvs) and print-ready blanks for every product. No design software to buy.
Printing since 1999
500,000+ projects and 10 billion+ cards out of one Queens plant, with G7 color profiling on the presses.
Weight and color
Card stock from 13pt to 80pt, checked before press
The gap is easiest to feel in your hands. Business card stocks here run from 13pt up to 80pt ultra-thick, with soft-touch and spot UV among the finishes. GotPrint covers the basics, and 4OVER4.COM covers the basics plus the work that needs to stand out.
Color accuracy is the other half. Every order goes through a pre-press quality check, and the presses are calibrated for consistent CMYK, so you avoid the washed-out, slightly-off color that shows up in budget print runs.
Pricing
Instant volume pricing on every product, and the base price already includes a free file check.
Quality
Soft-touch, spot UV and foil on the stocks that take them. Order free samples and feel the stock before you commit a full run.
Support
Real print experts and a free proof on every order, so nothing goes to press until it is right.
Finishes and range
Foil, soft-touch and a wider range
Paper and finish selection
On the black business cards, from $40.62 for 50, painted edges come in 20 colors or a custom mix, and spot UV, soft-touch lamination and foil stamping go on the premium card lines.
Product range
Business cards, postcards, brochures, banners, stickers, labels, booklets, door hangers, rack cards and table tents go in one order on one account.

Pricing, paper and reviews
GotPrint since 2001, 4OVER4.COM since 1999
Price, paper, tools and reviews each get a heading below, set against a printer that has run since 2001 and one that has run since 1999.
What sends GotPrint buyers looking
A catalog with basic finishes stops working the moment a brand needs foil, soft-touch or a product GotPrint does not list.
New customers can start with 200 free business cards, and a job that fits no product page goes through custom projects.
GotPrint and 4OVER4.COM in two paragraphs
GotPrint wins on a single low-cost run from a finished file. 4OVER4.COM wins when the job needs heavier stock, a painted edge or a product outside GotPrint's list, and the table above lays out the rest line by line.
How pricing compares
Both printers publish online pricing. Here 50 standard postcards start at $16.48 and 50 flyers at $39.54, with the price per piece falling at each quantity tier.
Count what sits outside the sticker price too: loyalty coins on every order and a free file check, none of which the table shows at GotPrint.
Heavier stock, checked before press
Heavier cover stocks, richer coatings, and finishes like foil and soft-touch give a piece a premium weight that basic gloss cannot match, and every order runs through a pre-press quality check before it goes near a press.
Tools beyond the print queue
Beyond the core catalog, 4OVER4.COM offers tools GotPrint does not. There are print-ready apparel and merch templates, a free QR code generator for trackable print, 10,000+ design templates across the site, and a free online designer.
Who should move a GotPrint order
If you only ever buy one product at the lowest possible price, any printer will do. If you reorder, care how the paper feels, and want speed plus written guarantees, 4OVER4.COM is the stronger long-term partner.
The verdict
GotPrint suits a one-off basic run. For reorders, heavier stock up to 80pt, foil or soft-touch, 4OVER4.COM is the stronger pick.
Paper by number
14pt, 16pt and 32pt in the hand
Paper weight decides how a printed piece feels, and it is the easiest spec to line up across two printers. Black business cards here start at $40.62 for 50 and standard postcards at $16.48 for 50, and the table shows what each weight does in the hand.
| Stock | How it feels | Where it earns its keep |
|---|---|---|
| 14pt | Light and flat, easy to stack | Everyday cards and high volume handouts |
| 16pt | Noticeably stiffer, holds a clean edge | Cards handed out at meetings and events |
| 32pt | Twice the thickness of 16pt | Rebrands, launches and premium handouts |
Quote the same weight at both printers before you compare totals, because a lower price on a thinner sheet is not a lower price.
The switch
Matching a GotPrint order spec for spec
When a repeat job moves to a new printer, the risk sits in the specification more than the price. Pull up the last order and write down six lines before you quote anything.
- Trim size, measured on the printed piece rather than remembered
- Stock weight, and whether it was coated or uncoated
- Finish, including any spot UV, lamination or foil
- Sides printed, and whether the back ran in full color
- Quantity, at the tier you actually bought
- Turnaround, counted in production days rather than delivery days
With those six lines the identical job can be priced here, and the 110% price match has something real to measure against. A quote built from memory is the reason a reorder comes back feeling different from the run before it.

What buyers say
GotPrint reviews, what buyers say
The table above lists GotPrint at 4.2 on Trustpilot from 8,793 reviews, 1.4 on Sitejabber from 253 and 4.8 on Yelp from 651. Those scores move week to week, so check the current one on the platform you trust, sort by most recent, then read ours the same way. Below are the three things buyers raise about a low-cost printer, and how each one is handled here.
Good price, but the card feels thin
A thin card comes from the stock picked at checkout. Every product page here prints the stock weight, so you compare like for like before you pay instead of guessing from a photo. If weight is the thing you are unsure about, order free samples and feel 14pt against 32pt before you order the run.
The color came back different from my proof
Color complaints are often a file problem caught too late: art built in RGB, a rich black that was never mixed for CMYK, or a screen proof nobody actually approved. Every order here gets a pre-press check and a free proof, and nothing goes to press until you sign off on it. If the print still misses, the satisfaction guarantee is money back.
It shipped late and I had an event
Dates are the review theme that costs real money. The published numbers here are 99.8% on time and 82% shipped early.
Read the recent reviews on both sides, then let the paper settle it with a sample in your hand.

GotPrint questions
Common Questions
Nine answers for GotPrint customers, from 2026 coupon codes and like-for-like pricing to 14pt against 32pt stock and shipping speed. Browse every printing question on our FAQs hub.
What's the best online printing service?
There is no single winner, because the job decides it. For a simple bulk run from a finished file, price and turnaround settle the question. For anything carrying a finish, a heavy stock or a date attached to an event, the answer is the printer that publishes its specifications, includes a proof in the base price and puts its guarantees in writing. 4OVER4.COM publishes its stocks on every product page and runs a pre-press check on every order.
Are there any GotPrint coupons available for 2026?
Coupon codes move week to week at every online printer, so a code found today may be gone by the time the file is ready. The steadier saving is volume pricing published on the product page before checkout, which is how every run here is quoted. If a competitor quote on identical specifications still comes in lower, the 110% price match beats it rather than sending you hunting for a code.
Is 4OVER4.COM more expensive than GotPrint?
It depends on the job. 4OVER4.COM publishes instant volume pricing on every product, and a lower verified price on identical specs is matched and beaten by 10%. File review and quality checks are already in the base price, and you also get 200 free business cards GotPrint does not offer.
Can I order the same products at 4OVER4.COM that I ordered at GotPrint?
Yes, and a lot more. The staples like business cards, postcards, flyers, and brochures are all here, alongside products past GotPrint's list, from black business cards with an optional painted edge to banners, stickers, and booklets.
How does print quality compare between 4OVER4.COM and GotPrint?
Every order here runs through a pre-press check, the presses run to a G7 color profile, and experts review each artwork against a 30-point checklist. Order free samples and feel the stock before a full run.
What guarantees does 4OVER4.COM offer?
Five written guarantees: quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and ultimate satisfaction. The satisfaction guarantee is money back, and the price match beats a verified quote on identical specs by 10%.
Does 4OVER4.COM offer design tools or templates?
Yes. The site offers 10,000+ templates and a free online designer (Canvs), plus print-ready blank templates for every product, so you do not need separate design software. You can also add scannable codes with the free QR code generator.
How fast does 4OVER4.COM ship compared to GotPrint?
Same-day shipping covers many products ordered before the noon Eastern cutoff. Check the turnaround options on the product page against the GotPrint quote for the same job.
What if I am comparing other printers besides GotPrint?
GotPrint has its own matchups against PrintPlace, NextDayFlyers, PsPrint and Overnight Prints, each in the explore section above. Two other budget printers have their own pages, the 123Print comparison and the 48HourPrint comparison.
