Print a Trading Card People Refuse to Put Down
This is the card that gets picked up first. It holds the standard 2.5" x 3.5" trading card size, but the surface is a soft-touch velvet laminate that feels like suede the second it lands in a hand. Whether you are printing collectible player cards, artist mini prints, or a networking card that outclasses every glossy rectangle in the stack, the velvet finish does half the work before anyone reads a word. Priced from $94.74 for 250, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 5 reviews.
The lamination is the whole point. It reads matte, feels premium, and shields the print from fingerprints and scuffs so a card that gets passed around still looks new.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 250 starts at $94.74, about 38 cents a card, and the per-card cost keeps sliding as the count climbs toward 25,000, so a full box for a drop or a trade show costs far less per card than a quick test batch.

What Are Velvet Laminated Trading Cards?
Velvet laminated trading cards are 2.5" x 3.5" cards printed full color and sealed with a soft-touch velvet laminate, on a single premium stock: 16 point soft velvet laminated. People reach for them when an ordinary card would get lost: collectible sports and gaming cards, artist and influencer cards, custom deck and promo cards, and high-end networking cards. Because the surface feels unlike anything glossy, the card gets handled and kept instead of pocketed and forgotten. If you want the same size in a different finish, the Silk Laminated Trading Cards sit right beside it.
What Is the Soft Velvet Lamination?
There is one stock here, and it is the point of the product: 16 point soft velvet laminated. The 16pt base gives the card real body, and the velvet laminate on top is a soft-touch film that reads matte and feels like suede.
That surface does three things at once. It looks premium, so a plain logo lands as high-end. It feels different from every glossy card in the stack, so people notice it in the hand. And it shields the print, resisting fingerprints and scuffs and adding durability for a card that gets passed around. If you would rather a high-shine or a suede-textured finish in the same size, compare the Gloss Laminated Trading Cards and the Suede Trading Cards.
What Size Are the Cards and How Do You Print Front and Back?
Every velvet laminated trading card is 2.5" x 3.5", the same size as a classic sports or gaming card, so it fits sleeves, binders and card slots without trimming. For color you pick 4/0, full color on the front with a blank back, or 4/4, full color on both sides when the back carries stats, a bio or a QR code. Upload a print-ready PDF, JPG or PNG. The full spec sheet is below exactly as the live configurator presents it.

How Fast Can You Get Velvet Laminated Trading Cards?
Velvet laminated trading cards print on a 4 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 3-day, 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same-Day orders need to be approved by noon EST to ship that day from the NYC plant. And 99.8% of 4OVER4 orders land on time, with 82% shipping early, so you are not gambling on the date.
What Do People Use Velvet Laminated Trading Cards For?
Because a velvet laminated card feels premium and comes in the familiar trading card size, it does more than one job. Teams, leagues and creators print collectible player and character cards. Artists and illustrators sell them as mini prints and signed cards. Founders and influencers hand them out as networking cards that outclass a glossy business card. Game makers use them for custom decks and promo cards. Whatever the use, the soft-touch surface is the hook: it turns a printed rectangle into something people hold onto.
