Magnet Save the Date Cards

These little magnets punch above their price.

What Is a Magnet Save the Date Card?

A magnet save the date card is a printed magnet, sent ahead of a wedding or event, that guests stick on the fridge so the date stays in view. At 4OVER4 these print full color or black on the front on a 17pt or 35pt indoor magnet, in 5 sizes from 2" x 3.5" up to 5" x 7", each sealed with a UV coating. You set the size, pick the stock, choose the ink and the price updates live as you go.

Because the format is unexpected, the card gets handled and kept instead of tossed. If you want the paper version of the same announcement, the Save the Date Cards cover that, and the magnet sits right beside it as the version that stays put.

What Sizes Do Magnet Save the Date Cards Come In?

4OVER4 magnet save the dates come in 5 sizes: 2" x 3.5", 3" x 4", 4" x 6" and 5" x 7", plus a custom size anywhere up to 5" x 7". The default is the 2" x 3.5" card, the same footprint as a business card, and the larger sizes give a photo and the date more room.

The right size comes down to how much you want on the fridge. The 2" x 3.5" card is the small, standard footprint that tucks into an envelope and costs the least to mail. Step up to 3" x 4" or 4" x 6" when you want a photo to carry the card, or go to a full 5" x 7" when the magnet is the centerpiece of the announcement. Need an in-between shape? Set a custom size up to 5" x 7" in the configurator, and the price follows the size you pick.

What Magnet Stock and Finish Can You Choose?

A magnet card is only as good as the magnet behind it. You choose between a flexible 17pt indoor magnet, which is lighter to mail, or a sturdier 35pt magnet that feels more substantial and holds a heavier grip on the fridge. Both are sealed with a UV coating so the color stays crisp and the surface wipes clean.

For ink, print full color across the front or a clean black, with the back left as a plain magnet either way. If you want to check the file first, order a free online proof or a next-day hardcopy proof, or send your art straight to production. Accepted files are PDF, JPG and PNG.

How Much Do Magnet Save the Date Cards Cost?

Magnet save the date cards start at $19.68 for a set of 25, which is the minimum order, and the per-card price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs across 30 tiers toward 25,000. A bigger run lowers the cost per card because the setup is spread across more pieces.

A thicker 35pt magnet, a full color front, or a rush speed shift the total, and you see every change in real time as you build the order. Want a side-by-side quote? Our Price Match will beat a real competitor price by an extra 10% - the 110% price-match guarantee.

What Do People Use Magnet Save the Dates For?

Weddings are the big one. A magnet keeps the date on a guest's fridge for the months between the announcement and the day, so nobody has to dig up an email or a paper card. They also work for grand openings, milestone birthdays, graduation parties and any event you want people to remember without a reminder.

When the moment calls for something more formal, the paper family covers it: the Invitation Cards handle the main invite, and the Folded Invitations give you extra panels for schedules, maps and registry details. The magnet does the early save the date job, and the paper pieces follow.

How Do Magnet Save the Dates Compare to the Rest?

A magnet is the version guests do not throw away, but it is not your only move.
