Cheap Custom Stickers for Small Businesses: Paper, Vinyl and Clear
Custom stickers are one of the cheapest ways for a small business to put its brand on packaging. You can seal a bag or box, label a jar or bottle, brand a takeaway cup, or add a thank-you sticker to a parcel. This guide explains the choices and how the price behaves.
The three materials
- Paper: the most economical option, with a natural, matt look. Best for dry products, boxes, bags and jars.
- Vinyl (waterproof): for bottles, cups and anything that gets wet or handled.
- Clear (transparent): a see-through film, for a printed-on-glass or "no label" look on bottles, jars and windows. Choose bold artwork.
Shapes and sizes
Choose circle, square, rectangle or cut to shape, then any size from 2.5 cm up to 30 cm. The designer draws your sticker to scale so you can judge it before you order.
How to keep the price low
- Order more: stickers are printed on large sheets, so the price per sticker falls as the quantity rises. The quantity bar in the designer shows the next step up and what it costs.
- Use a standard shape: circles, squares and rectangles are the most economical; a cut-to-shape design costs a little more.
- Pick paper unless your sticker needs to be waterproof or see-through.
There is no set-up cost. Prices are shown excluding VAT and update as you change the options.
Ideas for using stickers for branding
- A round logo sticker to seal paper bags and takeaway boxes.
- Labels for candles, honey and jam and soap and bottles.
- A sticker on a plain takeaway cup or food container to make it yours.
- Thank-you and social media stickers in parcels.
If you want the whole bag, box or cup printed rather than a sticker, see bespoke printing.
