Branded board games for business: costs and how to choose
A board game or skill game with your logo costs from €1.43 per unit, with branding included. The right game for a trade show giveaway is not the same as for a year-end gift or a breakout area: the format, presentation and logo position all change. Here you can see today’s prices, the most common uses with real products, and what matters before you order.
How much do branded board games cost?
Price per unit with your logo in one colour in the standard print area, excluding VAT and delivery. The unit price drops as quantities rise because the branding setup is spread across more units.

For trade shows, travel and desk gifts
When the game is handed out widely, it helps if it is easy to understand, compact and has a clear area for your logo. Branded playing cards, simple branded puzzles or a noughts and crosses set in a small box all work well, with pad printing, UV printing or foil blocking on the box itself.
For a large giveaway, a classic game is best because it needs no explanation. And do not turn the lid into an advert: a small logo on the box lasts better and makes people keep the game and bring it out again at home or in the office.

Recycled paper playing cards Screen Printing From €1.43 with your logo For the office and team days
For breaks, team days or a breakout area, games that are set up in seconds and can be used by several people at once work better. Towers, balance games or wooden sets with several games let you brand the front, base or lid with engraving, UV or transfer printing.
Think about who will use it before you choose. If the gift is for families with children, check the product page for the recommended minimum age and whether there are small parts. And if the activity is outdoors, see the branded outdoor games.

MD010825 From €5.60 with your logo For gifting to staff or clients
If the aim is gifting, presentation, the finish of the wood and a discreet logo matter more. A folding chess set or a game set in a well-finished box fits better here, with branding on the lid by laser engraving or pad printing.
The typical mistake is filling the lid with branding. For this kind of gift, a small, centred logo with plenty of space around it usually works better. If you want to build out the gift, you can find ideas in promotional product ideas for companies and keep the same tone.
