F.A.Q. Got questions?

What materials are custom buttons made from?

Custom buttons are typically made from a durable combination of a metal shell, plastic back, and a mylar coating that protects the printed design. 

Can I print full-color designs or logos on custom buttons?

Yes, full-color printing is available on all our custom buttons, allowing vibrant logos, artwork, and graphics to be reproduced with sharp detail. 

What file format should I submit for my button artwork?

Vector files such as AI, EPS, or PDF deliver the sharpest results for custom button printing. High-resolution PNG or JPG files at 300 DPI or above are also accepted for photo-quality designs.

Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?

Samples are available upon request so you can assess print quality and finish before committing to a large order. Get in touch with our team today to arrange your custom button sample.

Can I order buttons in multiple designs in a single order?

Multiple designs can be included within a single order, subject to minimum quantity requirements per design. Reach out to our team to discuss your split-design button order and get a tailored quote.

Are custom buttons suitable for political campaigns, events, or promotions?

Custom buttons are one of the most popular and cost-effective tools for political campaigns, brand promotions, trade shows, and community events. Their wearable format turns every recipient into a walking advertisement for your message.

What is the turnaround time for rush orders on custom buttons?

Rush orders on custom buttons are typically completed within 3–5 business days depending on quantity and design complexity. 

Can custom buttons be used as wedding or party favors?

Custom buttons make charming and affordable wedding or party favors that guests can keep as a memorable keepsake. Personalize them with names, dates, or a fun design that reflects the theme of your celebration.

Are custom buttons waterproof or weather-resistant?

Our custom buttons feature a protective mylar coating that shields the design from moisture and light weather exposure. For best results in outdoor settings, we recommend storing them away from prolonged water submersion.

What is the difference between pinback and magnetic buttons?

Pinback buttons use a metal pin to attach to clothing, while magnetic buttons use a magnet backing that holds securely without piercing fabric. Magnetic buttons are ideal for delicate materials or for those who prefer a pin-free option.

What's the difference between iron backing and plastic backing on pin-style buttons?

Iron Backing Buttons use a metal pin fastener, which tends to feel more secure for daily wear, while Plastic Backing Buttons use a lighter plastic clasp that still holds well for shorter-term or lower-cost orders. Both attach the same way, so the choice mostly comes down to durability preference and budget.

Do the metal name badge buttons need to be reordered differently than standard pin buttons?

Not really; metal, epoxy, and engraved name badge styles go through the same basic ordering process as standard pin buttons, just with a higher per-unit price that reflects the more durable material and finish.

What's the difference between a glossy and a frosted button finish?

Glossy finishes have a shiny, reflective surface, while frosted finishes are more muted and diffused, giving colors a softer look rather than a high-shine one. Both are available across most shapes in the catalog.

What size button should I choose for a name badge versus a giveaway pin?

Name badge styles typically work best in the smaller, more compact sizes so text stays legible without overwhelming a shirt or lapel, while giveaway buttons can go larger up to 4 inches since the goal is usually visibility rather than a subtle, professional look. The size options span from 1 inch up through several larger rectangular dimensions, so it's worth matching the size to how the button will actually be worn.

What are button display boxes used for?

Button display boxes are designed to hold and present a set of finished buttons together, which makes them useful for retail-style setups, trade show tables, or gifting a themed collection of designs as one unit rather than handing out loose pieces.

Can I order buttons in a shape that isn't listed in the standard options?

Yes, Custom-Shape Acrylic Buttons and the general Custom shape option allow for shapes outside the standard round, square, or oval choices, and the site can accommodate special requests beyond that if you reach out directly.
