Rip Cards

What are rip cards

Rip cards are promotional print pieces with a perforated section that customers can easily tear off and keep. They combine a larger area for your message, brand, offer or event details with a detachable coupon, ticket, contact card or reminder. They are ideal for discounts, loyalty programs, event admission, contests, appointments and promotional campaigns. The main card captures attention and communicates the value of your offer, while the tear-off portion gives customers a practical reason to keep it and take action later.

When should you use rip cards?

Rip cards are a smart, versatile way to promote your business, services or event while giving customers useful information they can take with them. Most rip cards feature a larger promotional panel with a perforated tear-off section at the bottom, often used as a business card, coupon, ticket, appointment reminder or membership card. This practical format turns a single printed piece into both an advertisement and a keepable takeaway—helping customers remember your offer and making it easier for them to take the next step.

Best Deal Print Solutions creates custom rip cards that put your brand, message and offer in customers’ hands. With strong visuals, clear information and a useful tear-off section, your rip cards help make your business easier to remember—and easier to contact.

Popular Coating Options

Choose a coating that protects your rip cards from frequent handling while enhancing colour, readability and overall presentation. The right finish keeps both the main promotional panel and the tear-off section looking sharp from display to redemption.

Gloss Cover with Gloss AQ

Gloss AQ coating gives rip cards a bright, polished finish that makes colours, photos and promotional offers stand out. This clear, fast-drying, water-based coating also helps protect against fingerprints, scuffs and everyday handling—ideal for coupons, event promotions and high-traffic displays.

Matte cover with matt AQ

Matte AQ coating gives rip cards a smooth, non-reflective finish with a refined, professional appearance. It helps reduce smudges and fingerprints while keeping text easy to read, making it a strong choice for information-rich designs and tear-off cards with contact details or offers.

Gloss cover with UV

Gloss UV coating adds a bold, high-shine finish that makes images, colours and key promotional details pop. It provides added protection against scuffs and frequent handling, helping your rip cards remain vibrant and display-ready.

Popular Finishing Options for Rip Cards

Make your custom rip cards more memorable with finishing options that add visual impact, texture and durability. Choose an option that supports your campaign while keeping the perforated tear-off section easy to use.

Foil Stamping

Add a premium metallic accent in gold, silver, rose gold or holographic foil. Foil stamping is ideal for highlighting a logo, offer, event name or call to action on the main panel of your rip card.

Spot UV / Raised UV

Add a glossy or dimensional finish to selected details, such as a logo, image, headline or special offer. Spot UV and Raised UV create contrast against matte designs and help draw attention before customers tear off the coupon.

Embossing & Debossing

Create a tactile, high-end effect by raising or pressing selected design elements into the paper. This subtle finish works beautifully for logos, monograms and minimalist promotional designs.

Custom Die Cutting

Use a distinctive custom shape to support your promotion, event or brand identity. To keep rip cards functional in displays, the final shape should be compatible with the intended rack or holder.

Soft Touch Lamination

Give your rip cards a smooth, velvety matte surface that feels premium in the hand. Soft-touch lamination is especially effective for luxury brands, dark backgrounds and campaigns that benefit from a refined look.

Rounded Corners

Create a polished, approachable look with smooth rounded corners. This practical finish can also help reduce bent edges while rip cards are displayed, handled and carried.

Looking for something more distinctive? We also offer options such as edge painting, embossing, foil stamping, inserts and other custom finishing solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum order quantities depend on the product, material, size and production method. Some standard printed products can be ordered in smaller quantities, while custom packaging, die-cut products and specialty finishes may require a higher minimum. Contact our team with your specifications and we will confirm the best production option for your project.

How fast is the tournaround time?

Turnaround time depends on the product type, quantity, artwork approval, finishing requirements and current production schedule. Standard print products are usually faster to produce, while custom packaging, bindery, die cutting or specialty finishes may require additional time. We will confirm the estimated production timeline when your quote or order is reviewed.

Can you match our brand colors?

Yes. We can work with your brand colours and print specifications to help maintain consistency across your printed materials. For the best results, please provide your print-ready files, colour references, Pantone colours when available, and any existing brand guidelines. Final colour results may vary slightly depending on the paper, coating and printing process used.

Do you offer design service?

Yes. We can support clients with design, file preparation and production-ready artwork when needed. If you already have artwork, we can review your files before production. If you need help preparing a layout, dieline, packaging design or printed marketing material, our team can guide you through the process.

Do you deliver across Canada & the U.S.

Yes. BD Print offers shipping across Canada and can also arrange delivery to the U.S. depending on the project and destination. Shipping options, timelines and costs depend on the order size, weight, delivery address and production schedule.

What file format do you accept?

We recommend sending print-ready PDF files with proper bleed, trim marks, embedded fonts and high-resolution images. Depending on the project, we may also accept Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop or other production files. For the best print quality, artwork should be supplied in CMYK colour mode with images at 300 DPI whenever possible.

Can rip cards include unique coupon codes or serial numbers?

Yes. Adding unique codes or sequential numbering can help you track redemptions, manage giveaways or verify admission. Share the numbering format you need when requesting your quote.

Should I leave space around the perforation line?

Yes. Keep important text, QR codes, logos and fine design details away from the perforation line. This helps ensure the tear-off section remains clean, readable and easy to detach.

Can I add terms and conditions to a rip card offer?

Yes. Short terms, expiry dates, restrictions and redemption instructions can be included on the main card or tear-off section. Keep this information concise so the offer remains easy to understand.

Can I create different versions of the same rip card campaign?

Yes. You can produce multiple versions with different offers, locations, event dates or audience messages. This is useful for testing promotions or tailoring a campaign to several markets.
