Vistaprint is a user-friendly website that offers customized printed products at competitive prices. Customers go to Vistaprint for customized holiday cards, wedding invitations, business cards, and even t-shirts.
Vistaprint is one of most promo-code friendly sites, because they consistently offer great promo codes – both storewide and product-specific. Because there are so many options and ways to save at Vistaprint, it’s important to make sure you’re receiving all the savings available to you. Follow these tips and tricks on your next Vistaprint purchase.
Start in the “Specials” Section
The “Specials” section on the Vistaprint site is similar to the clearance section on other sites. Here is where you’ll find active promo codes and other offers. You’ll often see offers for discounted business cards or a storewide promo code. Unfortunately, Vistaprint doesn’t allow shoppers to stack the coupons, so it may be logical to place separate orders. For example, place one order under the store-wide promo code, and another order using a specific promo code for that particular item (like business cards). The specials section also has offers on services like its website builder. This feature allows you to build a website on a simple template (no technical skills required). Vistaprint offers the first month of this service for free.
Inside Tip
Vistaprint offers free shipping on any order over $50 – but they frequently have promo codes for free shipping, as well.
Get $10 Off Your Order When You Refer a Friend
Vistaprint has a promotion where you enter your friends’ information, and every time one of your friends makes a purchase for the first time, you’ll receive a $10 voucher. This is perfect for friends who have an upcoming wedding, event, or friends who need business cards. If they plan to use Vistaprint services anyway, you might as well get paid for it! The best part is that there is no limit for how many vouchers you can receive under the refer-a-friend program.
Get A Free Vistaprint Business Sample Kit
Not sure which products you’re interested in? Sign up for a free business sample kit, which includes samples of Vistaprint’s business cards, a postcard, an oversized postcard, an invitation, and a brochure. These products aren’t personalized, but allow you to get a feel for Vistaprint’s quality in the various products they offer. The best part about this service is that you don’t even have to pay for shipping – the samples ship absolutely free.
Inside Tip
If you have an upcoming wedding, you can opt to receive a free wedding sample kit, instead. The wedding kit includes a look book with trendy stationary designs and a coupon on your future order.
First-Time Buyers Automatically Receive 20% Off Your First Order
When you visit the Vistaprint website for the first time, the site will automatically apply a promo code for your first order. This promo code is good for 20% off your entire purchase. While this is a great deal, be sure to check out other available coupon codes. You can override this automatic promo code by simply clicking on the blue box labeled “have a different promo code?” From there, you can input the promo code you prefer to use. Vistaprint often offers promo codes for 25% or even 30% off your entire order, so make sure you’re using the promo code that will save you the most money.
Inside Tip
Once Vistaprint receives your order, they are known to send out a confirmation email with a discounted price to add more to your existing order.
Find Out If You Qualify for the ProAdvantage Program
If you’re a graphic designer, photographer, marketer, or anyone who creates and sells printed materials, you may want to consider joining Vistaprint’s ProAdvantage Program. As a member, you’ll receive exclusive discounts, flat rate shipping, and special deals on a monthly basis. This is a great option for someone who is already in the business of selling printed materials, but not for every customer – as those in the program only receive free shipping on orders over $150 (compare this to free shipping on orders of $50 or more for regular customers). Vistaprint offers two types of ProAdvantage memberships. The basic membership is free, and you’ll get 25% off all products and quantities. The premium membership is $74.99 per year (after a one month free trial), and you’ll receive 40% off all products and quantities.
Take Advantage of Vistaprint's Free Business Cards Offer
Although you have to cover shipping, Vistaprint offers 100 free business cards – simply enter your information and choose from 45 templates. You can then request a PDF proof or even save your cards and purchase them later. Vistaprint also has staff on call to help you with your design if you get stuck. The first 100 are free, but the pricing for more is pretty reasonable. For example, you can place an order for 500 business cards for only $7.49. You’ll be charged for shipping, which is $4.99 for economy.
Explore the VistaPrint’s Vast Promo Code Options
Vistaprint is one website with abundant, active promo codes. You’ll easily find promo codes for storewide savings, usually ranging from 20%-30% off your entire order. If you’re visiting Vistaprint for something specific, like business cards, you should also have no problem finding specials on common items such as these.
Inside Tip
Promo codes are not applicable on promotional items.
Adding a Free Pen to Your Order Will Sometimes Reduce Shipping
There seems to be either a glitch in Vistaprint’s shipping calculator or a deliberate trick – but either way, several customers report that adding a free pen to your order can reduce your shipping price. Although the savings are not significant (anywhere from 10 to 60 cents), the advantage is two-fold – you’re getting a free pen and reduced shipping!
