Free design templates
Each template has the bleed, cut line and safe area already marked, so your file is set up correctly first time:
- Download your size and corner style — PDF for Illustrator, Affinity or InDesign; PNG for Photoshop or Canva.
- Open it in your design app, or place it on a locked layer at 100% size — it already includes the 3mm bleed.
- Design over it: run your background right to the red bleed edge and keep text and logos inside the green safe area.
- Hide or delete the template layer, then export a print-ready PDF (CMYK, 300dpi) and upload it with your order.
Delivered within 3-5 working days of ordering, once your free proof is approved. That window is the whole job, not just the van: we print, finish and dispatch your order and the tracked carrier delivers it. The clock starts when you approve your free digital proof, so approving promptly is the fastest thing you can do.

- • Standard delivery — 3-5 working days, free to UK mainland addresses on orders over £25, £2.95 below that
- • Next-day delivery — next working day when you order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, priced at checkout
- • Next-day by 1pm or by 10.30am — next working day, by the time chosen, when you order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, priced at checkout
- • Saturday delivery — Saturday, for orders approved by 2.30pm on Friday, priced at checkout
- • Same-day delivery in London — design your cards online and order by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, and a tracked courier delivers the same day. Priced at checkout, including same-day production.
The Highlands & Islands, offshore and international addresses are priced live at checkout, as are unusually heavy orders — over 15kg is £14.95 whatever the order value. Very large pieces (any side over 120cm, such as A0 boards) go by courier rather than post: £7.95 on Standard, with the faster services at the courier's large-parcel rate, shown at checkout. See live delivery prices and times.
Every order is covered by the Presswift Guarantee: printed to the proof you approve and the specification you choose, or put right. If what arrives is damaged, short or does not match the approved proof, contact us within 7 days of delivery with your order number, photos of the problem and a count of the affected copies, and keep the copies unused while we look. We reprint the affected copies to the same specification or, where a reprint is not practical, refund them; approved refunds reach your original payment method within 7-10 working days. Read the Presswift Guarantee.
Because every job is printed to your own artwork and specification, we cannot take a return simply because you have changed your mind, and errors carried through the proof you approved, or colour and trim variation within normal print tolerance, are not print faults. That is what the free digital proof is for — check the colours, wording and layout on the proof and nothing goes to press until you are happy with it.
Can I get name badges the same day?
Yes. Design 90 × 60 mm name badges in our online editor before the weekday cut-off and same-day courier delivery across London is confirmed automatically at checkout. Bulk badge-and-lanyard sets are priced and bought online too — configure the set on this page and choose Same Day Delivery at checkout.
Can I have different badge designs for different attendee types?
Yes. You can colour-code and label badges separately for speakers, exhibitors, staff and general visitors so roles are easy to tell apart on the day.
Do the lanyards come with the badges?
Badges and lanyards are supplied together as a set. You can choose printed or plain lanyards to match your event branding, along with clips or holders for the badge inserts.
How should I supply my artwork?
Please send a print-ready PDF set up in CMYK at 300dpi with 3mm bleed. Keep names and logos clear of the edges so nothing important is trimmed off.
Can you print names for every delegate?
Yes, personalised names and titles can be printed on individual badges. Supply your attendee list clearly and we will match each name to its badge.
Are the badges reusable?
Badge holders and lanyards can be reused across events, and printed inserts can be swapped out. Fully printed plastic badges are best suited to a single named person.

About Event Badges & Lanyards
Event badges and lanyards keep conferences, trade shows and corporate days running smoothly by putting names, roles and organisations on show. Printed in full CMYK colour on card or plastic and paired with woven or printed lanyards, they help delegates identify one another and let your staff spot attendees at a glance.
Personalise each badge with names, job titles, company logos and colour-coded categories for speakers, exhibitors and visitors. Lanyards can carry your branding along their length, and badge holders keep printed inserts protected throughout busy multi-day events. The pairing looks tidy, reads clearly across a crowded room and reinforces your event identity.
Every order includes a free digital proof so you can approve the layout and spelling before anything goes to print. Once you sign off, we produce your badges and lanyards and dispatch them on standard UK delivery in 3-5 working days — or design 90 × 60 mm name badges in our online editor for same-day courier delivery across London when you order before the weekday cut-off.
