Free Design Setup & Free Proof on every order. Prices above are per-unit at qty 1. Rush production tiers are available in the order form. Shipping calculated live at checkout.
Configure & Order ↑Full gloss cards reflect everywhere and full foil pricing blocks a first luxury run. Raised UV embossed gloss business cards add selective high-gloss height on logo, monogram, or pattern while the card face stays matte or soft-touch: you feel and see shine only where you want attention. Select 18pt Soft-Touch (Premium) or 32pt Painted Edge (Luxury) under Paper / Material, note raised UV embossed gloss effect requested in Cart Order Notes, 3.5x2 Standard or alternate sizes, qty 25 through 5,000, with Free Design Setup and UV mask proof in the calculator above.
Upload art with a UV gloss layer labeled SPOT UV or RAISED UV, or send logo for Free Design Setup mask build. We show UV mask coverage, gloss height mock, and CMYK registration on the proof before spot coat runs on your approved stock tier.
Guide to raised UV embossed gloss stocks, UV mask art, contrast zones, proof steps, FAQ. Note raised UV, approve proof, print.
Calculator stocks plus finish note.
Business card calculator Paper / Material lists 14pt Uncoated through 32pt Painted Edge. Raised UV embossed gloss is not a separate dropdown. Select 18pt Soft-Touch for premium matte hand-feel under gloss contrast, or 32pt Painted Edge for luxury thickness with painted edge color, then write raised UV embossed gloss effect requested in Cart Order Notes so prepress schedules spot UV coat after CMYK print.
We confirm raised UV placement and stock pairing on the digital proof so gloss accent registers cleanly on the base you selected.
Separate gloss zone from CMYK.
Label the UV art layer SPOT UV, RAISED UV, or UV GLOSS in your PDF. Fine lines below roughly 1 pt at final card size may not raise cleanly; we flag risky hairline zones on the proof.
Free Design Setup builds a gloss mask from vector logo art when you upload CMYK only. Dark or soft-touch bases maximize visible gloss pop versus full gloss stock.
Recommended calculator bases.
18pt Soft-Touch (Premium) is the top pick under raised UV because velvety matte face makes gloss accents read tactile and bright. 32pt Painted Edge (Luxury) adds edge paint color and extra rigidity for boutique and hospitality programs where card weight itself signals premium.
16pt Gloss Cover reduces visible UV contrast because the whole face already reflects. Note alternate base only when gloss-on-gloss is intentional.

Selective shine, not full flood.
Raised UV works best on logos, monograms, borders, and icon marks rather than full-card floods. Keep gloss zones away from heavy embossed edge paint on 32pt Painted Edge so coat height does not fight edge color registration.
We mock gloss coverage percentage on the proof so you approve shine scope before production.
Coat step after proof approval.
CMYK prints first on approved stock, then raised UV coat registers to the approved mask. Standard production runs 3 to 5 business days after proof approval. Rush 2 to 3 business days and Next-Day tiers appear in the calculator when eligible.
Cards ship boxed at qty 250 and above from our Florida print facility.
Send a logo, sketch, or bullet points. We handle layout, contrast, bleed, and file conversion at no extra setup fee. You approve a digital proof before production.

Calculator Size options are 3.5x2 Standard, 2.75x1.18 Mini, 2.5x2.5 Square, 3.5x2 Round Corners, and Custom Die Cut Shape. Most raised UV embossed gloss programs use 3.5x2 Standard for wallet-friendly networking. Mini and square formats work for boutique tags when noted in comments. We confirm final trim and UV mask scale on the proof for whichever size you select.
When ordering Raised Uv Embossed Gloss, material and finish choices are in the calculator. Not sure which fits? Free Design Setup recommends stock based on indoor, outdoor, hand-feel, or mail needs and shows the pick on your proof. Contact support the same business day if you need help choosing specs before you approve the proof.
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval. Raised UV adds a spot coat step after CMYK print inside the standard window. Rush 2 to 3 business days and Next-Day tiers appear in the calculator when eligible for your qty and specs. Approval day is not counted as day one. Add carrier transit after production.
Yes, always. We email a digital proof showing CMYK layout, UV gloss mask coverage, gloss zone mock, and stock confirmation before any card prints or spot UV runs. Raised UV needs registration review so logo shine lands on the right zones. We flag thin lines and full-flood gloss risk on the same proof pass.
Vector PDF or AI with separate UV gloss layer labeled SPOT UV or RAISED UV is ideal. High-resolution PNG at final trim size works for simple logo marks when Free Design Setup builds the mask. JPG loses edge quality on small type. Free Design Setup converts brand art into UV-ready masks when you lack a separate gloss layer.
With Raised Uv Embossed Gloss, minimums and volume breaks are shown as 25 through 5,000. Use a smaller tier to proof the design, then reorder the same file at a higher break when the campaign scales. Contact support the same business day if you need help choosing specs before you approve the proof.
We print in Florida and ship raised UV embossed gloss cards to all 50 states. Enter your zip code during checkout for live ground and expedited rates after production. Cards ship boxed at qty 250 and above. Include raised UV note in Cart Order Notes on every reorder for consistent spot coat scheduling.
Add 0.125 inch bleed past trim on all sides. Keep logos and phone numbers at least 0.125 inch inside the safe line from the cut edge. Keep UV gloss mask at least 0.0625 inch inside trim on fine logo strokes so raised coat does not bleed past card edge. We show bleed, safe zones, and UV mask inset on the proof.
Boutique owners and creative directors ask whether raised UV reads on dark backgrounds, how it differs from foil stamp, and which stock maximizes gloss pop. We confirm 18pt Soft-Touch or 32pt Painted Edge on the proof, explain selective UV versus full foil pricing, and show gloss contrast mock before production.
First-time buyers upload gloss-on-gloss art on 16pt Gloss Cover where UV effect disappears, or omit the raised UV note in comments. Others place UV on hairline type below 1 pt. Write raised UV embossed gloss effect requested in Cart Order Notes, pick soft-touch or painted edge base, and upload a labeled UV mask layer.
Start with 18pt Soft-Touch, Single-Sided, Standard turnaround, qty 100 while noting raised UV embossed gloss in comments. Single-sided keeps first-run cost lower while you validate gloss pop with clients. Reorder Double-Sided at 250 once approved UV mask and stock pairing are on file.
Upload art or send logo for Free Design Setup. We email a digital proof within about one business day showing UV mask, stock tier, and layout. Reply with changes or written approval. CMYK print and raised UV coat begin only after written approval. No time runs while the proof is pending.
Raised UV embossed gloss adds selective tactile shine on logo zones without full foil die cost. Spot UV flyers use the same accent logic on flat sheets. Standard gloss cards reflect across the whole face. Foil stamp adds metallic color. Pick raised UV when you want clear gloss height on matte or soft-touch stock.
Rush 2 to 3 business days after proof approval is available when the Rush tier shows in the calculator for your qty. Next-Day is listed when available for smaller runs. Spot UV scheduling may limit Next-Day on some specs. Add carrier transit on top of production days. Note any event date in order comments before checkout.
Yes on qualifying orders. Free Design Setup covers layout, UV mask build from logo art, bleed, and gloss zone sizing at no separate design fee. Send logo vector and note raised UV embossed gloss in comments. Approve the finished proof before CMYK print and spot UV run.
No hidden setup add-ons on standard raised UV embossed gloss card orders. The calculator total covers printing, spot UV scheduling via Cart Order Notes, and your selected shipping tier. Free Design Setup is included on qualifying orders without a separate design line item. Complex multi-zone UV beyond standard mask may need quoted prep noted on the proof.
Production time covers CMYK print, raised UV spot coat, finish, and pack after proof approval. Shipping time is carrier transit from our Florida facility after the carrier scans the label. A 3-day production tier plus 3-day ground shipping totals 6 calendar days minimum after approval, not 3.
Vector PDF, AI, PNG, and JPG uploads accepted. PDF with separate UV layer is best for raised UV embossed gloss cards. PNG at 300 dpi works for photo logos when Free Design Setup builds the mask. Free Design Setup converts common formats and labels gloss zones before print.
We price raised UV embossed gloss business cards competitively through direct manufacturing and quantity automation. Send a comparable itemized quote when print specs, stock tier, UV coverage, and qty match. Live calculator totals show landed cost including shipping before you place the order.
After proof approval your raised UV embossed gloss card order enters CMYK print, passes spot UV coat registration QC, packs boxed when qty warrants, and ships with a tracking email when the carrier scans the label. Reply to the proof thread with any event deadline so we can flag timeline risk before printing starts.
