Bulk personalised gift cards: a guide for booksellers
Offer a unique service to local schools and businesses with our bulk personalisation service.
We now offer bookshops the option to sell bespoke National Book Tokens gift cards.
If £10 or more is loaded onto the card at time of purchase this service is absolutely FREE* (for smaller amounts see pricing below).
If you or your customers want to design the card themselves, all you need to do is:
- Download the guide and Photoshop template
- Send the approved artwork to: egiftcard@booktokens.co.uk with a completed order form
- You don’t even need to load the card with value as we will do this for you via your bookshop account.

- The cards are not supplied mounted onto a carrier card
- Minimum 50 cards per order
- Orders take 6-8 working days from receipt of a completed order and approved card design
- There are certain restrictions on what you can put on a personalised gift cards design – see terms and conditions below.
