Visitor Badge Buddy
VISITOR badge buddy
For visitors who check in at the front desk. Staff on the unit can see at a glance who is a guest. VISITOR prints in large letters on a badge buddy that hangs behind a visitor badge.
- Need to tell escorted and unescorted visitors apart? Customers order ESCORTED VISITOR and UNESCORTED VISITOR, often in different colors.
- Hand them out at check-in and collect them at the door, so order enough for a busy day.
New to badge buddies? A badge buddy is a card that clips behind your photo ID on the same clip or reel. It's a little longer than your ID, so your title shows below it in letters big enough to read across a room. It's printed on both sides, so your title still shows when your ID flips.
Every visitor badge buddy
Each one opens the designer with VISITOR filled in and the size already picked. Hover to see it worn behind an ID.

Visitor badge buddy questions
What is a visitor badge buddy?
A card that hangs behind your photo ID on the same clip and shows VISITOR in large, bold letters, so patients and coworkers can read your role from across the room. It's printed on both sides, so your title still shows when your ID flips around.
Will it fit my ID badge?
Yes, if you wear a standard-size ID card. Pick the orientation that matches your ID: horizontal if your photo ID is wider than it is tall, vertical if it's taller. The badge buddy goes behind your ID on the same clip or reel, so your ID stays as it is.
Standard, XL or Clear: which do I need?
Standard (3-3/8″ × 3-1/8″ horizontal, 2-1/8″ × 4-1/2″ vertical) is for an ID worn on its own. XL (3-3/8″ × 4-1/8″ or 2-1/8″ × 5-1/2″) is one inch longer, so your title still shows below a badge holder or sleeve. Clear has a see-through top with a colored title bar for a lighter look.
How fast will it ship?
Custom standard and XL badge buddies: usually ships in 1-2 days. Clear: usually ships in 10 - 14 days.
Is there a minimum order? Do you have bulk pricing?
No minimum on standard and XL: order one, or enough for the whole unit. Clear badge buddies start at 25. The price per badge drops as the quantity goes up, starting at 24+ and reaching 28% off at 600+ on custom badge buddies. For a hospital-wide order, ask us for a quote.
Can I add our hospital logo or a reference card?
Yes. We can add your hospital's logo, or print a reference card on the back, such as R.A.C.E. fire safety steps, a conversion chart, lab values or a pain scale. Click Get a Quote and tell us what you need.
Can you match our hospital's color scheme?
Yes. Pick from our 19 standard colors, or send us a Pantone (PMS) number and we'll match it. We print in full color (CMYK), which comes very close to most PMS colors. Neon, fluorescent and metallic shades can't be reproduced exactly in CMYK, so those print as the closest match. Click Get a Quote with your PMS numbers.
Can I order different titles for my unit?
Yes. Add each title to your cart, or send us your list with a quote request and we'll set up the whole unit.
