About This Product

A rip card is two pieces in one: a full-size card that makes the pitch and a tear-off the homeowner keeps. They rip off your number and toss the rest, so the part that matters stays in the wallet or on the fridge.

For contractors, the tear-off is the whole point. It can carry your number, a coupon code you can track, or a next-service-due reminder. We design the two halves to work together: the big half hooks them, the stub sticks around.

Often ordered with: Staggered Cut Flyers, Table Tents, and Booklets.

Common Questions

How much do rip cards cost?
Rip cards are starting at $39, and that includes custom design and a proof before printing. Format, paper, coating, and quantity set the final price. Send your quantity in the form below and we will send a proof with the exact total.

What is a rip card?
A rip card is a printed card with a perforated tear-off section. The large part carries your ad, and the small part, often business-card size, is kept by the customer. It gives you the reach of a flyer and the staying power of a business card.

What sizes do rip cards come in?
We print a 3.5 x 8.5 inch card with a postcard-style tear-off, and 3.5 x 11 inch cards with a rack card or door hanger style tear-off. Choose based on whether you will mail, display, or hang them.

What should go on the tear-off section?
Put what you want the homeowner to keep: your phone number, a coupon code, or a next-service-due date. Keep the big offer and photos on the main card. A unique code on the stub lets you track which drop is working.

How do contractors use rip cards?
They work as estimate leave-behinds, mailers, and door hangers. HVAC and plumbing companies print a service reminder on the stub, while roofing and restoration crews use a discount code. Hand one out at every job and the stub keeps your number close.

How many rip cards should I order?
Order enough for every estimate and service call for a few months, or one per door if you are canvassing. The minimum is 100. Rip cards are ready 3 to 7 business days after you approve the proof, with rush available.

Ordering print in East Tennessee

Do you ship print orders across East Tennessee?

Yes. Everything we print ships — to Knoxville, Maryville, Alcoa, or wherever your crew is working. Shipping time is on top of the print turnaround, and we confirm the total before you approve the proof.

How fast can I get signs or cards for a job starting this week?

Most orders proof within one business day and print in three to seven business days, plus shipping. Rush is available on yard signs, business cards and door hangers — put your date in the form below and we will tell you what is actually possible.

Will yard signs and banners hold up outdoors in East Tennessee?

We spec UV inks and heavier stock on anything that lives outdoors through hot summers and freezing winters. Tell us the sign is going in full sun or staying up through the season and we will recommend the material that lasts instead of the cheapest one.

Do I need artwork before I can order?

No. Design is included. Send a logo, a photo of your truck, or nothing at all, and our design team builds the artwork and sends you a proof before anything prints.
