Are Moo.com<\/a> Luxe Business cards worth your money? The short\u00a0answer: Yes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I run a freelance\u00a0business and like any other small business or\u00a0startup, cost is a big consideration in anything I do. That is why I was hesitant to buy Luxe by Moo<\/a> initially. While\u00a0the cards were beautiful, they\u00a0costed 2-3 times<\/strong> more than normal business cards. Yet, I was eventually swayed by Moo’s stellar reviews and decided to try them out.<\/p>\n

My cards just arrived\u00a0and I absolutely love them. Here are 5 reasons<\/strong> why these Luxe cards are worth every cent.<\/p>\n

\"Moo<\/a><\/p>\n

1. Great\u00a0Service and Prompt Delivery<\/h2>\n

Moo.com has outstanding customer service. Any questions I had were mostly answered in this comprehensive FAQ<\/a>. The chat staff were extremely friendly and helpful in my remaining queries. Moo’s templates<\/a> were really easy and simple for designers like me to use. You can also choose from Moo’s large collection of curated designs.<\/p>\n

\"Moo's<\/a>

Moo’s delivery package – Yay!<\/p><\/div>\n

I was pleasantly surprised to receive the Luxe package early –\u00a020 days<\/strong> before the estimated arrival date. Moo lets customers track their orders every step of the way, and the printing stage took only 3 working days<\/strong>. The speed is simply unbelievable. In total, the package took less than 2 weeks<\/strong> to arrive in Singapore.<\/p>\n

2. Stunning Packaging<\/h2>\n

Unboxing the package is\u00a0a great experience in itself. The cards come\u00a0in a wrapped,\u00a0textured cardholder<\/strong> that is\u00a0both beautiful and functional.<\/p>\n

\"Moo<\/a><\/p>\n

The cardholder is wrapped in a gorgeous ribbon. The faux-wax seal<\/strong> is a great touch, befitting the ultra-premium Luxe cards inside.<\/p>\n

\"Moo<\/a>

Opening the customised cardholder reveals the Luxe cards safely tucked inside.\u00a0Round magnets<\/strong> secures the lid and it feels great to open and close the box. I love how the gap shows off the colourful seam<\/strong> on the edge\u00a0of the cards.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Sturdy\u00a0Thickness & Weight<\/h2>\n
\"Moo<\/a>

Aww, that’s sweet.<\/p><\/div>\n

The first thing that strikes me is how sturdy the cards feel\u00a0in my hands. It is no surprise that at 600gsm<\/strong> (most cards are only around 300gsm), the Luxe cards feels great and downright premium.<\/p>\n

\"Moo<\/a>

Each card has 4 layers of Superfine paper pressed together<\/p><\/div>\n

Each Luxe business card is made of 4 layers<\/strong> of quality Mohawk Superfine paper (what Moo calls Quadplex technology). It makes for a great card that doesn’t bend easily.<\/p>\n

The size of the cards are\u00a0smaller<\/strong> than I had expected, but after giving several away I realise it is just the right size to fit inside wallets.<\/p>\n

4. Premium Matte Printing<\/h2>\n

These pictures don’t do the printing justice. These cards have a wonderful matte texture<\/strong>. It’s smooth to touch, yet rough with just the right amount of premium texture. Coupled with Mohawk’s Superfine paper, the printing alone gives a great first impression to the receiver.<\/p>\n

\"Moo<\/a>

One of my original designs for card backing – gradient is not obvious in the final print<\/p><\/div>\n

One word of advice:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>After experimenting with Printfinity<\/a>\u00a0(free Moo service to print different designs on the back),\u00a0subtle\u00a0gradients don’t fare very well with the matte printing. Very subtle shifts\u00a0in colour are\u00a0compromised to give the great matte texture, so I recommend using simple, contrasting,\u00a0single-coloured\u00a0elements!<\/p>\n

5. Vibrant, Colourful Seam<\/h2>\n

Lastly, Luxe is unique\u00a0for the beautiful seams<\/strong> sandwiched between your designs. I went for bright cyan, but you can choose from red, black or vanilla. While it isn’t as stunning as I had expected, the seam is still very beautiful and outstandingly executed.<\/p>\n

The Verdict<\/h2>\n

First impressions are everything<\/strong> for startups and small businesses like mine. Luxe by Moo is a great way to introduce yourself and build credibility. The great texture and sturdy cards will win over any potential clients or investors instantly. The verdict? Worth every cent.<\/p>\n
