Pin badge FAQs
What is a pin badge?
A pin badge is a small badge that fastens to clothing, bags, hats and lanyards. Custom pin badges are used to promote brands, mark events, recognise achievements, raise awareness for causes and show off personal interests. They come in soft enamel, hard enamel, die struck metal, offset print and button styles, so there is a durable, eye-catching option for almost any design.
How are pin badges made?
It depends on the style. The design is stamped or cast in metal, then filled with enamel, printed, or left as polished metal. A fastening is fixed to the back so the badge can be worn securely. Custom pin badges can be made in almost any shape, size, colour and finish.
Which pin badge style should I choose?
Soft enamel is the popular all-rounder: bold colour, raised metal lines and the most economical price. Hard enamel is polished flat for a smooth, jewellery-like finish. Die struck is all metal with no colour, for a classic, premium look. Offset print handles photos, gradients and fine detail that enamel cannot. Button badges are the budget choice for big runs and giveaways. Not sure? Pick the closest and we will advise on your proof.
What's the minimum order?
Small runs are welcome. Your minimum per design shows next to the quantity box as soon as you pick a style, and colour splits of the same design count together.
How fast can you deliver?
Standard lead times show with your estimate, door-to-door from artwork approval. Rush is available: pick Rush and we confirm your date in the quote.
Do I need finished artwork?
No. Send a sketch or a photo and we'll draw it up with free unlimited proof revisions.
How do I design a pin badge?
Keep the artwork clear, simple and easy to recognise at a small size. Bold colours, readable text and strong shapes stay visible once the badge is made. The style, size and finish you choose shape the design too, and our proof shows you exactly how it will look.
Read: designing a pin badge for events »How do I keep my pin badges from falling off?
Choose a firmer fastening: rubber clutches grip the pin more tightly than the classic butterfly clasp. Safety pin and tie tack backings are a little more fiddly to fit, but slightly more secure. Check the fastening every so often for wear, and avoid pinning badges to loose or very thin fabric that cannot take the weight.
How can I display my pin badges?
Display boards, pin banners, cork boards, shadow boxes and frames all keep a collection organised, protected and easy to show off. Plenty of people wear theirs too, on backpacks, jackets, hats and lanyards.

Benefits of Pin Badges
Pin badges are a simple yet highly effective way to promote a brand, organisation, or personal design. Whether used for events, merchandise, or everyday branding, custom pin badges offer a range of practical and marketing benefits.
Cost-effective branding
Compared with many promotional products, pin badges are an affordable way to increase brand visibility. Ordering custom pin badges in bulk can reduce the cost per item, making them ideal for large events, campaigns, or retail merchandise.
Strong brand recognition
With custom pin badges, your logo, slogan, or design can be displayed clearly on clothing, bags, and accessories. This turns wearers into walking brand ambassadors and helps improve brand recognition wherever the badges are worn.
Highly versatile
One of the biggest advantages of pin badges is their versatility. Custom pin badges can be worn on jackets, hats, bags, lanyards, and uniforms, making them suitable for businesses, schools, clubs, charities, and events.
Memorable keepsakes
Many organisations use pin badges as collectable items or event souvenirs. Custom designs make custom pin badges memorable keepsakes that people are more likely to keep and wear long after an event has finished.
Fully customisable
From shape and size to colours and finishes, custom pin badges can be designed to suit almost any branding requirement. This flexibility allows businesses and organisations to create unique pin badges that reflect their identity.
