What Are Custom Booster Packs?
Custom booster packs are sealed trading-card packs printed with your own card and wrapper artwork, where the cards inside are drawn from rarity tiers and drop rates you define. With print-on-demand production there is no minimum order, so you can order a single pack before a launch.
Why Create Custom Booster Packs with QPMN?

True Randomization
Each pack is assembled independently using the rarity categories and drop rates you configure.

Custom Drop Rates
Create rarity tiers, assign card designs and control how frequently each category appears.

No Minimum Order
Order from one pack to test your artwork and randomization settings before launching.

Print-on-Demand Fulfillment
Connect your store and let QPMN print, pack and ship customer orders under your brand.
QPMN Print-on-Demand vs Conventional Bulk Production

| Bulk Discounts | Combine different designs & addresses | Discounts typically restricted to identical single-SKU runs |

What Is The Card Randomization Tool?
The QPMN Card Randomization Tool allows trading card creators to set custom drop rates for booster packs. You upload card designs, assign them to rarity tiers, and define how many of each rarity appear in a pack. Our system applies these rules when the cards are printed and shipped — making each booster pack truly randomized based on your settings.
Example: a five-card pack
- Three slots draw from your Common category.
- One slot draws from your Rare category.
- One slot is set to 90% Rare / 10% Ultra Rare, so roughly one pack in ten yields an Ultra Rare.
Across a production run the mix follows those percentages, and each individual pack is drawn on its own.
How to Create Custom Booster Packs in 4 Steps
Upload artwork
Add the card fronts, card back and wrapper design using the correct card size templates.
Set rarity & drop rates
Pick wrapper & finish
Order or connect a store
Choose Paper or Foil Trading Card Packaging
Custom paper packs
A paper-based wrapper with a natural, printed surface and a slightly softer feel in the hand. It suits art-led releases, gift and promo packs, and sets where the wrapper design is meant to read like print rather than retail film. Your artwork is printed directly on the paper.
Custom foil packs
A flexible foil film wrapper that gives the familiar retail TCG pack look and a crisper, glossier surface. It is the usual choice when packs sit alongside mainstream trading card products or need a more traditional shelf presence.
Both formats carry your own wrapper artwork, both can be sealed or left open on one end, and both are available for Fixed Set and Randomized packs. If you want packaging only, QPMN also prints wrappers on their own.
Prepare Print-Ready Cards and Wrapper Artwork
Start with the template for the exact card count and wrapper size you choose. This keeps important artwork away from trim lines and helps the finished pack match your layout.
- Download the correct templates
Booster packs use separate templates for 1–10 and 11–23 cards. Use the wrapper template that matches the pack size. - Prepare every required file
Export the individual card fronts, the shared card back and the complete wrapper design. - Follow the print guides
Prepare artwork at 300 DPI in CMYK. Extend backgrounds through the bleed area and keep text and logos inside the template’s safe zone. - Order a physical sample
Check small text, card order, color, foil appearance, wrapper alignment and the opening experience before launch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are custom booster packs?
Custom booster packs are sealed trading-card packs printed with your card and wrapper artwork. They can contain a fixed card set or randomized cards drawn from rarity tiers and drop rates you configure.
Is there a minimum order for custom booster packs?
No. QPMN accepts orders from one custom booster pack, including packs that use configured rarity tiers and drop rates.
Can QPMN randomize a single booster pack?
Yes. The randomization settings apply from the first pack, so you can order one pack to review the artwork, materials and opening experience before a larger release.
How does QPMN True Randomization work?
You create rarity categories, assign one or more card designs to each category, set the number of cards and drop probability for each tier, and choose the pack size. QPMN uses those settings when assembling the packs.
What is the difference between a basic shuffle and QPMN True Randomization?
A basic shuffle mixes the available cards without controlling how often each rarity appears. QPMN True Randomization lets you define rarity categories, assign card designs and set numeric drop probabilities that total 100%.
Do the drop rates need to total 100%?
Yes. The probability assigned across the rarity categories must total 100% before the randomization setup can be completed.
Can several card designs share the same rarity tier?
Yes. You can place multiple designs in one rarity category, which is useful when a Common, Rare or chase tier includes several possible cards.
Can duplicate cards appear in a randomized pack?
Duplicates may appear because the system uses the rarity and probability rules you set. If avoiding duplicates is important, structure the tiers and card assignments accordingly and test the result before launch.
Can foil or holographic cards have their own drop rate?
Yes. Assign foil-effect or holographic card designs to a separate rarity category, then set that category’s drop probability as part of the 100% total.
Can I choose a fixed card set instead of True Randomization?
Yes. Card Selection Mode offers Fixed Set or Randomized. Fixed Set puts the same defined cards in every pack, which suits starter packs, promo packs and gift sets, while Randomized applies your rarity categories and drop rates pack by pack.
How many cards fit in one custom booster pack?
Custom booster packs start from 1 card. The maximum ranges from 21 to 29 cards per pack, depending on the thickness of the selected card stock.
Can I choose a foil or paper booster pack wrapper?
Yes. Both custom printed foil and custom printed paper wrappers are available. Choose the format, artwork and compatible pack size in the product builder.
Can I order custom booster pack wrappers without cards?
Yes. The Custom TCG Booster Pack product lets you order printed wrappers on their own, which is useful when your cards are produced elsewhere, when you want packaging samples first, or when you plan to pair them with another format like a tuck box.
How do I see live pricing?
Open the booster pack product in the QPMN catalog, choose your product and options, then click Tiered Price Table to see pricing by quantity. Shipping is estimated at checkout for your destination.
Does QPMN ship internationally?
Yes. QPMN ships worldwide. Available shipping methods and delivery estimates for your destination appear at checkout once you have selected your options and entered a delivery address.
How long do custom booster packs take to produce and ship?
On-demand production typically takes a few business days. Shipping generally takes 7–12 days with tracking, while the available method, current estimate and cost are shown at checkout.
Do I need an online store to order custom booster packs?
No. You can order samples or bulk products directly without connecting a store. A store connection is only needed when you want paid customer orders to route automatically to QPMN for fulfillment.
Which ecommerce platforms can I connect?
Shopify, Etsy, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Snapshop Lite and the QPMN API. Orders from a connected store flow into production automatically and ship white label under your brand.
