  • Ordering

– Colour Matching

You acknowledge and agree that BizCards will not be responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions from RGB to CMYK or PMS Pantone colors to CMYK color modes. All artwork, designs and images provided by you to BizCards for incorporation into any Products must be provided with a minimum of 300 DPI. BizCards is not responsible for the degradation in quality of the images printed, including fuzziness, distortion, pixilation, or any other type of degradation from the provided artwork, designs, and images when such degradation is caused by the nature of artwork you provided to BizCards, including, without limitation, where the image has a resolution that is lower than 300 DPI. BizCards is not responsible for any color shift in converted photographs with black, near black, or gray tones. BizCards will use commercially reasonable efforts to match the colours in the Product Proofs to the Products.

– Printing & Cutting

When we receive orders, we do not take responsibility to review any content, image or design errors. All files must have at least 1/8″ bleed and any essential parts of design or information should be contained at least 1/4″ from the edge of the paper. We are not responsible for any contents, images or designs that are cut off if these guidelines are not followed. Therefore, we strongly recommend you to review our artwork guideline before submitting any files. All print’s are done at customer’s own risk and any material submitted must comply with Copyright laws.

– Custom Design Orders

Design quotes are based on the estimated time it will take to complete. In some cases, this time will be over or under estimated; however, the price will remain the same once the customer has accepted the design quote. A design service does not include the printing price unless stated. A design order will be completed once you have accepted your design proof. If you are unhappy with the finished design(s) then another design quote will be sent out for any changes that BizCards needs to make. If the changes are minor, and if BizCards has not gone over their estimated time to complete such design, a change may be made with no additional fee under the discretion of BizCards.. A DESIGN ORDER CAN NOT BE CANCELLED OR PARTIALLY REFUNDED ONCE THE FINAL DESIGN HAS BEEN SENT TO THE CUSTOMER. If you decide to cancel a design order after being paid for and before being completed, then you will need to pay for services rendered, which is a minimum of $60 per hour. If no design work has been done when an order is cancelled, then the customer will only need to pay a 5% transaction fee on the price of their order, if cancelled later then the date of purchase.

– Turnaround Time & Shipping

When you place an Order using the Website, BizCards will provide you with an estimated date of completion of the Order. You acknowledge and agree that the date is an estimate only, is provided to you, and does not include shipping time for the Product. BizCards does not represent and warrant that your Order will be completed by the estimated date, except where you select the option of “rush printing”, provided, however, that in no event will BizCards be responsible for any delay in shipping of products caused by the shipping company, even where “rush printing” was selected. Since manufacturing time varies by products, BizCards reserves right to combine items into one shipping package or to ship items separately. Please note, rush printing does not come with any shipping options; therefore you will need to select the most suitable shipping method to ensure the fast possible delivery.

– Returns, Reprints & Refunds

If you have received a damaged package or noticed manufacturing defects, please get in touch with us within ten (10) business days of receiving your order. Once we agree to give reprints or refunds, you must return the ENTIRE original print order to us, otherwise we may charge for the cost of reprinting or deny refund even if previously approved. Return shipping cost is at customer’s responsibility. The original shipping charges are non-refundable.

We do not accept returns, or provide refunds, or reprint when:

    • The product is lost, delayed or returned to us due to an error made by the customer in submitting the proper shipping address. We will reship the product to a corrected address at the customer’s expense if requested.
    • The product is delayed in production as a result of the customer providing inaccurate files.
    • The product is delayed in shipping as a result of shipping company delays.
    • The printed product is blurry, pixilated or distorted as a result of the customer providing files that are not at a minimum of 300 dpi.
    • The orders are duplicated as a result of customer error.
    • The customer did not receive a deal or a discount as a result of entering invalid promotion code or not entering one.
    • The order is cancelled after the order has entered into production.
    • The order containing dated materials does not arrive before or on the relevant date.
    • The order containing invalid and/or unreadable barcodes or QR codes as a result of customer error.
    • The contents, images or designs are cut off as a result of customer not following the artwork guideline.
