A ready-made Ask Me badge buddy xl, horizontal
Make your role unmistakable and your presence instantly recognizable with "ASK ME" Badge Buddies - the ideal ID accessory for busy, high-traffic environments where visibility and approachability matter most. Designed with bold, double-sided "ASK ME" lettering with optional color borders, this badge buddy makes it easy for patients, customers, visitors, and coworkers to instantly identify who's ready to help - even from across a crowded lobby, sales floor, nurses' station, or service counter.
Made from flexible, laminated material, it's durable enough for long shifts, constant movement, and daily wear, while remaining easy to wipe clean - perfect for healthcare settings, retail stores, and customer-facing departments. Featuring a pre-punched slot, it attaches effortlessly to any badge holder or strap clip for reliable, all-day comfort.
Our extended-size "ASK ME" horizontal badge buddy is 1" longer than our standard size, making it ideal to wear beneath any standard (credit-card-sized) ID badge inside a badge holder - especially for badges without a slot-punched hole. Perfect for hospitals, medical offices, retail stores, grocery locations, hospitality desks, banks, customer service departments, and information counters, this badge buddy enhances visibility, encourages engagement, and helps nurses, hospital staff, retail associates, front desk teams, and customer support professionals stand out as approachable, knowledgeable team members ready to assist.

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 get this title in another color?
If we stock it in other colors, you’ll see them as options above or under “Also available” on this page. For any other color, design your own: pick your color and type your title.
My exact title isn’t here. What can I do?
Design your own. Type any title on one or two lines and pick your color. Standard and XL designs cost the same as ready-made ones.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Ready-made badge buddies have no minimum, so order one or a hundred.
How does volume pricing work?
The price per badge drops as you order more of this badge buddy: see the price breaks above. Price breaks count per style, so different titles are priced separately.
When will it ship?
The stock status and lead time shown above the Add to cart button are current for this badge buddy.
Can I add our logo or a reference card?
Not on a ready-made badge buddy. Design your own to add a logo, a reference card or a different back.
Is it made in the USA?
Yes. Every badge buddy is designed, printed, laminated and die-cut in the USA.
Need a different title?
Design your own: type any title, pick your color and see it on the badge before you order.
Or call 1-800-380-6726, Mon to Fri 9am to 5pm ET.
