Tuck Box Packaging
Tuck Box Card Game Packaging
A tuck box is the traditional card game packaging option, made by folding thick paper stock into a box with a flap top. Our tuck boxes can hold up to 110 cards in a single deck or 220 cards in two decks side by side, and can be fitted with an instruction booklet or sheet. If your game requires more cards we suggest using a two-piece box for better durability.
The minimum card requirement for tuck box packaging is 26 cards. However – if your game has less than 26 cards and you would like them packaged in a tuck-box we can work with that, but a cardboard insert will need to be included with the cards inside the tuck box. Please see below for an image example:
PLEASE NOTE: You will need to reach out to customer service when placing your order if you decide to go this route, as this will require custom quoting.
Tuck Box Materials
We offer two tuck box materials: card stock and plastic. Our card stock tuck boxes are made up of 16 pt stock. For orders over 5,000 units, we also offer a plastic tuck box. This option looks sleek and is more durable than a paper tuck box.
Tuck boxes can hold more than cards, making games more travel-efficient. If your game has several small components, such as dice and tokens, you can include them in the tuck box packaging. Domestically, we use 14pt as the standard tuck box selection.
Retail Packaging Suggestion
If you plan on selling your game to retailers, we suggest adding a hangtag to your tuck box that allows retailers to hang your game on a peg wall. Specialty options will also help your packaging stand out from the conformity of retail displays.
