Or Whether you’re saying thank you to a customer for their purchase, writing your contact information or jotting down pricing or an appointment time, a compliment slip is the perfect way to add a personal touch to your communications.
A great way to be remembered, personalised compliment cards can have as much or as little information printed on as you’d like. These office essentials can be printed either single or double sided; so if you’re wanting to include additional information such as your business address or other contact details, you’ll have plenty of space to do so.
Our business compliment slips are printed on a choice of three different uncoated paper types, from our economy 90gsm to premium 160gsm, so there is something for every budget and business. With a 24-hour dispatch and one working day delivery time, the ultimate compliment to your business will be with you in no time at all!
Here’s a quick checklist to help set up your compliment slip artwork.
- The finished size of your compliment slip is 99mm x 210mm, so set your artwork up at 105mm x 216mm to add 3mm bleed to both sides
- Set your colour mode as CMYK
- Use high resolution images (at least 300dpi)
- Embed or flatten your fonts
How to design a compliment slip
Designing your personalised compliment slips is as easy as A-B-C. Whether you’re entrusting your inhouse design team to do the job for you, or are a dab hand at creating graphics yourself, we’ve detailed a few important things you need to remember when you open up your design program of choice.
We print your snazzy new comp slips on DL paper. This makes your compliment slip size 99mm x 210mm, so set your artwork up at 105mm x 216mm to add a 3mm bleed to both sides. The bleed is important so please don’t skip this step!
You’ll need to set your colour mode as CMYK and if you’re using images or graphics of any kind, use high resolution images (at least 300dpi) only to ensure the best quality print possible. Have your own brand font or use specialist ones? As we may not stock these in our arsenal, it’s important to remember to embed or flatten them.

Which comp slip paper type is suitable for my needs?
Whether you’re looking for something to write everyday notes and messages to clients on, a stock that offers more weight suitable for all types of communications or something with a more premium feel, we have a paper type for everything.
Our value uncoated (90gsm) is perfect if you’re wanting a good quality product but are working to a tight budget; it’s also ideal if you’re simply wanting to scribble down notes for your customers. Our classic uncoated (120gsm), is suited more to those who are wanting to include notes inside packages being sent out or as a little thank you if they spend money with you in store.
Have a bit more budget to spend and want something a little more expensive feeling? Our premium uncoated (160gsm) stock is what you’re looking for. This paper is perfect for compliment slips being sent to repeat customers, or in packaging with high ticket items for that extra luxury touch.
Because all of our personalised compliment cards are printed on uncoated paper, you can write your own message on them with no problem, and get smudge-free writing every time.
