A few common questions answered...
 What are the features of these passes? - The passes are a “Standard of the industry” size and are a heavy 16 mil thick. They have rounded corners and a oval slot punch, features that do-it-yourself passes usually don’t have. Our passes are border-less, turning out more like a hard plastic card than a laminated piece of paper. You can have any size pass smaller than 3 X 5 inches, but the standard pass size is 2.6 by 4.7 inches
What kind of quality are these passes? - The Best in the Industry! We have designed passes for 100’s of recording artists, festivals, fairs, and conventions throughout the years, and also provide other services (Through our , Interactive Itinerary), to The White Stripes, The Deftones, System of a Down, Ratdog and dozens of local bands, corporations, events and festivals We have been in the entertainment production industry for 24 years, and know that great passes can make your band, brand or show look pro, secure sensitive areas or make great VIP invites, but don’t think it should be some major project to get them in your hands.
Can I order a specific number, like 575? - Sorry, we have some of the fastest turnarounds and best pricing in the industry for everyone. To do this, we stick to our packages and pass offerings on the site, but we are sure to have one that fits your needs.
 So...Who are you guys? - BandPasses.com is the idea of a former tour manager, music industry veteran and the inventor/owner of Interactive Itinerary, an on line itinerary service for touring bands. Clients of Interactive Itinerary have included the Deftones, incubus, System of a Down, 311 and other national recording artists. You can check out the Interactive Itinerary services at www.interactiveitinerary.com . We also promote local and regional shows, do event marketing and offer web services for entertainment vendors.
Can I have you do something with holographic foils, glow in the dark inks, or special shapes or sizes? - No. We only produce standard “rock n roll” style laminates and satins. Our passes remain true to industry standards, while providing great built in security features like no-borders that cost extra elsewhere, and feel more like a membership card than a pass with soul.
 Do you have samples available? - CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT OUR GALLERY. To keep costs down and provide affordable passes to any band, we DO NOT provide any samples. Our passes use first quality products, specialty stock and feature NO BORDER, making your pass virtually counterfeit proof. Don’t confuse our laminates with ANYTHING that you can do in the office or at home. These are first quality backstage/VIP passes.
Can I have My Artwork on the passes? - Yes, We accept ANY file, PC or MAC. You can e-mail art to us at info@bandpasses.com . Check our art section for more details and specs. 300 DPI Jpegs are Preferred, and work the best in our all digital printing realm.
What if I don’t have any artwork? - We will design two choices for you based on information you give us about the type of band, festival, or event you are, art on your web site, or Posters/Ads that you can send us to use.
How long does it take? Most orders ship within 72 hours after the order is paid for and artwork delivered, or you give us an idea of what you want based on your web site, logo, or idea. Almost never more than 7 days for passes to be on your desk, or shipped to you on the road. There are times we can work miracles, so e-mail us if you are in a super rush, and we will see what we can do.
How do you charge me for my order? We use Pay Pal as our preferred method of accepting credit card orders.

What kind of artwork can I send you? - A 300 DPI Photoshop or JPEG file is best, but you can send us to your web site to pull art from there, or send us your other printed art via the mail. WE CAN TAKE ANY FILE YOU HAVE, BUT THE BETTER THE ART, THE BETTER THE PASS. People say we do miracles with nothing, so don’t be shy if you have nothing. We will work with you if you do not, but if you do have art, please send it to us in an e-mail and Include your name with the attachment.
