Business Card Preparation. If your design is to go up to the edge of the card, then we require an extra 3mm around the entire card, meaning your finished design must be supplied at 91 mm x 61 mm. This extra 3mm is commonly known as ‘bleed’ and is cut off to ensure a crisp, accurate edge once your card is finished.

The standard business card dimension in United States is 3.5 x 2.0 inches. With using bleeds, you can use 3.75 x 2.25 inches. The bleed area is an extra 1/8 inch of space added to the actual dimension of the card. It’s a safety margin for designs that may extend beyond the finished size of your card.

Simply add text, photos, or logos and you’re done. The three most popular dimensions of a business card are standard (2” x 3.5”), square (2” x 2”), and slim (1.75” x 3.5”). If you have something more creative in mind, you can set custom sizes for your business cards with dimensions ranging from 2” to 4”. Rotate your design and you have vertical business cards as well.

Unless otherwise requested, a standard business card from Creeds is sized at 85 mm wide x 55 mm high (see diagram below). This size is almost the same as a regular credit or debit card – meaning it will easily fit into a wallet or purse.

From design point of view - we always set business cards to 85mm x 55mm as someone mentioned above. This is the same as a standard credit card size. I do know of some people who design to 88 x 55mm though so it doesn't matter too much - as long as it fits in a card holder or wallet then it'll be fine! Cheers.

Well, a standard rectangular business card has dimensions 3.5 x 2.0. This is the usual size. However, Moo prints business cards a little bit different: 3.3 x 2.17. If you want a mini business card, the dimensions also vary from one printer to the other. But, most of the time they are 2.75” x 1.0”.

I think now a days there is really no standard size for business card. I think it will depend on the style and how you want to deliver your business information to your potential client.
