XL badge buddy vertical

The XL badge buddy is 1″ longer than our standard, made for an ID worn inside a vinyl badge holder or sleeve. It clips on behind the holder with the same clip, and your title still shows below it. Pick a color and add one or two lines of text; we print it on both sides, laminate it and slot-punch it. Vertical, for a portrait ID.

Common questions

Before you order

Will it fit with my badge holder?

Yes, that's what the XL is for. It's 1″ longer than our standard badge buddy, so with your ID inside a vinyl badge holder or sleeve, your title still hangs below the holder. Clip it on behind the holder with the same clip.

It suits holders up to about 3-1/4″ long for horizontal and 4-1/4″ long for vertical. The title bar is the same size as on our standard badge buddy.

What if my badge flips?

Your title is printed on both sides, so it reads either way.

Can I order different titles and colors at once?

Yes. Design each one and add it to your cart.

Is there a minimum order?

Standard and XL badge buddies: no minimum. Clear: 25 per design. BadgeBottoms®: 6 per design.

Can I add our logo or a reference card?

Yes. In the designer, open “Add a logo, reference card or different back” and upload it, on the front or the back.

Is it made in the USA?

Yes. Every badge buddy is designed, printed, laminated and die-cut in the USA.

“I really like the 2 in 1 badge bottom and badge holder. What can make this product better is if they can make the top sealable like other badge holders. This would prevent splashes or debris to collect into the badge holders over time .”
