Hi All
FastCards is a relatively new online business card service with hundreds of templates for businesses to choose from as well as the option to upload a logo and have it inserted onto a card.
Our cards are great quality (335gsm board), our delivery is unequalled (all orders placed before 3pm are sent out that day - no rush charges) and prices are very low (our introductory offer of £4.99 + P&P is proving very popular).
We want more and more people to see how easy our site is to use and to be receiving the cards we print so we are offering a further discount to users of the startups forum - £3 off our prices (which are already very low!)
To take advantage of this offer, go to www.fastcards.co.uk choose your card and personalise it and then add your card to your basket. When you get to the checkout stage there is a box at the top of the page which asks for a 'voucher code'. The voucher code to use is...
STARTUPS1
Click 'Process Voucher' and you will see £3.00 plus VAT will be deducted from the cost. That means if you opt for 50 cards from the 'Quality Card Template' range the cost is just £1.99 plus P&P! The £3 discount applies to all orders and if you want to pass this voucher code on to your friends or colleagues please feel free to do so!
Just to let you know, the £3.00 voucher code will expire at the end of August.
Cheers

very nice site, looks good and easy to use. Shame you don't offer non-templated or the ability to upload our own designs.

I couldn't find it either, but they amazingly they had a template which was a perfect fit so I wasn't too bothered. No custom option would normally be a deal breaker for me though.
One thing I noticed with the website (and this may just be a result of me being very tired) was that I almost bought the cards without putting my details in first. I clicked through and missed the 'personalise' button and only clicked when I was asked for my card details that I'd missed something. I think you need to have an error message flag up if the default values are left unchanged.
The other thing was that when I got the the payment page I was presented with a total of £12.90, however my email receipt says £16.43. Which amount was I charged?
Overall though nice site. I especially liked how the thumbnails also incorporated my logo once uploaded. A very nice touch I thought.
Will report back on the quality when I get them!

Hi Folks
Thanks for the comments about our site - I'd have come back on these before, but have been away.
We are pleased that people seem to like the site and found it generally easy to use - just to clear up a couple of points...
- we don't have an option to upload the entire design on the site as such - although there is the opportunity to upload a logo onto one of many templates (Connected Effect, we are chuffed you liked the way the logo is incoporated into the thumbnails - it took a long time to make that work!!). The total design upload may follow at some time in the future (it's on the list of things to do!)
- Connected Effect - your email confirmation is showing the incorrect amount (oops!) - it should say £12.90 which is the amount your credit card was charged - taking the saving from using the voucher into account. The invoice that will have come with your cards will have shown the correct figure. Thanks for spotting that - we'll get it fixed.
- it is interesting that you nearly bought the cards with the default text - we should look at ensuring this is not the case. Just to let you know, we do check all cards before printing and if default text has been left in or there are glaring typos we do contact the customer - nevertheless, the more we can do to avoid mistakes the better it will be for our customers and us.
Anyway - thanks again - still early days for this website and we are delighted to get this level of feedback!
Keep using that voucher code - STARTUPS1 - saves £3.00 off business cards that are already amazingly cheap!
