Whether you're running a promotion, rewarding loyal customers, or making a splash at your next trade show, custom scratch off cards are one of the most engaging marketing tools you can put in someone's hands. And the best part? You don't need to be a designer to get started.
Why Custom Scratch Off Cards Work
There's something irresistible about a scratch off. The anticipation, the reveal — it taps into the same excitement as a lottery ticket, but you control what's underneath. Businesses use them to:
- Drive foot traffic with in-store promotions ("Scratch to reveal your discount!")
- Boost event engagement at trade shows, grand openings, and pop-ups
- Reward employees with incentive and safety programs
- Run social media giveaways that get people talking
- Power fundraisers for schools, nonprofits, and community organizations
What Size Should You Choose?
Our most popular option is the 2" x 3.5" Business Card Size — and for good reason. It fits in a wallet, slips into a mailer, and feels familiar in anyone's hand. It's the perfect size for:
- Handing out at events or trade shows
- Including in packaging or order shipments
- Mailing as a direct mail piece
Need something bigger? We also offer Mini Postcard (3" x 4"), Index Card (3" x 5"), and Postcard (4" x 6") sizes for campaigns that need more real estate.
