We have other options. Contact us and we'll search through our database of over 1,000,000 promotional items.
Minimum order quantities typically start at 100 pieces for standard shapes like circles and rectangles. Shaped magnets or pop mags may require a higher MOQ due to die costs. Contact us for specific quantities based on your design.
Yes, we offer samples of our magnet materials and finishes. You can request a sample pack that includes different thicknesses and surface options to evaluate quality and adhesion before ordering.
We use full-color digital print for most custom magnets, which allows photographic images and gradients. Spot color printing is also available. Pop mags feature a raised 3D dome for a premium look and feel.
Standard production takes 5 to 10 business days, depending on the complexity of the design and quantity. Shaped magnets may take longer due to die-cutting. Rush orders are available for an additional fee.
For outdoor or vehicle use, choose a magnet thickness of at least 30 mil (0.030 inches). Thinner magnets may not hold securely on car doors or in windy conditions. We recommend UV-resistant lamination for outdoor applications.
When ordering custom magnets, consider how they will be used. Thin flexible magnets work well for direct mail and handout giveaways because they lie flat in envelopes. Thicker rigid magnets are better for vehicle signs or outdoor applications where durability matters. The most popular sizes for business promotion are 2-inch circles and 3x4-inch rectangles, but shaped magnets like sports balls or seasonal pop mags often get higher retention because recipients find them fun.
Most promotional magnets use flexible magnetic sheeting with a printable vinyl or paper top layer. Full-color print on a white vinyl surface gives the sharpest image. For outdoor use, look for UV-resistant lamination to prevent fading. Branded magnets intended for car exteriors should have a thicker gauge (30 mil or higher) to hold securely at highway speeds. Indoor magnets can use thinner 20 mil material, which costs less and is easier to mail.
Marketing directors order personalized magnets for direct mail campaigns that drive repeat impressions. HR directors include them in new hire packets with emergency contact info or cafeteria schedules. Safety managers use magnetic signs on vehicles and equipment to display logos and safety warnings. Business owners give away logo magnets at local events as a low-cost way to stay top of mind. Even a simple 3-inch circle with your logo and phone number can generate calls months later.
Full-color digital print is the standard for custom magnets, allowing photographic images and gradients at no extra setup cost. Spot colors are also available for simpler designs. For shaped magnets, a steel-rule die cuts the outline, which adds a one-time die charge. Pop mags feature a raised 3D dome that gives a tactile, premium feel. Bulk magnets with a single design are the most economical; if you need multiple designs, consider grouping them into one production run to share setup costs.
Minimum order quantities for custom magnets typically start at 100 pieces for stock shapes and sizes. Wholesale magnets pricing drops significantly at 500, 1,000, and 5,000 units. For shaped magnets or pop mags, the MOQ may be higher due to die costs. If you need a small test run, stick with standard circles or rectangles. Plan ahead: production usually takes 5 to 10 business days, plus shipping. Rushed orders may be available for an additional fee.
A common mistake is choosing a magnet that is too thin for its intended surface. A 20 mil magnet works on a refrigerator but may not hold a stack of papers on a metal filing cabinet. For vehicle use, always specify outdoor-rated material and avoid placing magnets on curved surfaces without testing adhesion. Another pitfall is underestimating lead time for shaped magnets; the die-cutting process adds a few days. Order samples first to check color accuracy and adhesion strength before committing to a large run.
