Discuss your collection with GMBWhy metal
A card with weight — in every sense.
Kept, not tossed
Metal cards feel different in the hand, which makes them more likely to be saved, shown and remembered.
Built for real life
Wallets, truck consoles and toolboxes are hard on paper. Metal holds its shape.
A brand statement
Your card is often the first physical piece of your brand someone touches. Make it count.
Digital-ready
Add a QR code or NFC tap so a physical card leads straight to your profile, booking page or portfolio.
Best for: listing appointments, closing gifts, VIP clients, investor meetings, referral partners and any moment where one introduction matters more than a hundred.
Scan or tap
QR codes and NFC, explained honestly.
QR code — scan
A visible pattern read by a phone camera. It needs line of sight and good contrast, and most modern camera phones can scan one.
NFC — tap
An embedded chip a compatible phone can read when held close. Support varies by phone and settings, so many clients pair it with a QR backup.

Questions
Straight answers.
Are gold-tone and rose gold cards made of real gold?
No. Our gold-tone brass, rose gold and copper options are finishes. They are not solid gold or any solid precious metal. Exact materials are confirmed in your quote.
How much do metal business cards cost?
Pricing depends on finish, decoration method, sides, features like NFC or a bottle opener, quantity, artwork preparation and timing. We don't publish set prices — your quote confirms current details for your specific project.
Is there a minimum order?
We don't list a minimum on this site. Tell us the quantity you actually need, and your quote will confirm what's available for that project.
How long does production take?
Timelines vary by product and current availability. Share your deadline in the quote builder and we'll confirm whether it's realistic before anything moves forward. We never guarantee a date before reviewing your request.
What's the difference between a QR code and NFC?
A QR code is a visible pattern scanned with a phone camera. NFC is an embedded chip that a compatible phone can read when held close to the card. QR needs line of sight; NFC needs proximity and phone support. Many people choose both.
Will NFC work on every phone?
Not necessarily. NFC support depends on the phone model, operating system and settings, and some phones need NFC switched on. That's why we often recommend a QR code as a backup.
