Paper Name Badges details
Paper name badges are the workhorse credential for conferences, tradeshows, and corporate events. They print clean, they hand out fast, and they keep the badge line moving. Choose your size, sides, and slots, then print onsite or send artwork ahead.
Material Details
Light, clean, and quick to hand out. Paper name badge stock takes crisp text and logos, sits flat in a holder or straight on a lanyard clip, and keeps your per-attendee cost down. It is the most affordable badge in the lineup and it still looks sharp at the table.
Choose paper event name badges for conferences, tradeshows, and corporate events. They are the go-to when you are badging a large group and want registration to move quickly without pushing up the cost per attendee. Pair them with a badge holder, which is what keeps a paper badge flat and readable from check-in to the closing session.
Decide how you are printing first, because that drives everything else. Printing in full color onsite as attendees arrive suits an Epson ColorWorks setup, so pick Epson in the printer compatibility step. Printing names in black onto badges that already carry your branding suits a Zebra direct thermal printer, so pick Zebra instead. Fewer ribbon changes halfway through check-in, which is a nice thing to not think about.
From there, choose 4 x 3 or 4 x 6, single or double-sided, and your perforated slots. Send artwork for both sides, or order blank if you are printing everything onsite. Standard production is 5 business days after proof approval, and we recommend about 20% extra for reprints and printer calibration.

FAQ - Questions Worth Asking
These are lightweight paper name badge stock, printed to order. Paper is the most cost-effective option in the badge lineup, which is why it does so much of the work at conferences, tradeshows, and corporate events where you are badging a lot of people.
Choose 4 x 3 for compact credentials that only need a name, a company, and a role. Choose 4 x 6 when sponsors, session access, a QR code, or an agenda need to share the same badge. Check your holder and lanyard clip spacing before you lock the size in.
Yes, and how you print decides which printer to select. For full color printing as attendees check in, choose Epson in the printer compatibility step, which covers an Epson ColorWorks setup. For printing names in black onto badges that already carry your branding, choose Zebra for a direct thermal printer.
Single-sided is enough when the badge only needs a name and a logo on the front. Double-sided is worth it when the badge flips around on a lanyard through the day, or when you want an agenda, a map, or wifi details on the back where attendees will actually find them.
Yes. Plan on a badge holder with paper name badges. The holder is what keeps the badge flat and readable all day and takes the wear at the lanyard slot, which is where paper gives out first. Order your holders at the same time as your badges so nothing is missing at check-in.
Yes. Choose the blank option when you plan to print everything onsite. You can also order them pre-printed on one side or both sides if you want your branding applied before the badges reach the venue.
Order for expected attendance, then add roughly 20% extra. That covers walk-ups, name changes, reprints, and the handful of badges every printer uses up during calibration. Paper is the cheapest badge to over-order and the most annoying one to run out of.
Standard production is 5 business days after you approve your proof. Shipping is calculated at checkout and transit time depends on the destination, so leave a buffer when badges are shipping to a venue instead of an office.
Yes, and plenty of events do. Adding a badge holder is the easy upgrade when badges will be worn across several days on a busy show floor, since the holder takes the wear at the slot. If you would rather the badge itself carry that load, tear-resistant name badges are the step up.
Choose paper when you want the friendliest cost per attendee across a large conference, tradeshow, or corporate event. Choose tear-resistant when badges need to shrug off moisture and repeated handling without a holder. Both print well and both are event-ready, so it comes down to how much the badge has to take on.
