Promotional giveaways: what they cost and which to choose
A promotional giveaway with your logo costs from HUF 208 per unit, with printing included. A bottle opener for a trade show, a keyring for a key handover and a metal token for a client do not do the same job. In this guide you will see the latest price, the most common uses with real products, and what is worth checking before you order.
How much does a promotional giveaway cost?
Unit price with your logo in one colour in the standard print area, excluding VAT and delivery. The price drops as quantities rise because the print setup is spread across more items.

For trade shows, events and large-volume handouts
When you are handing out lots of items, it matters that they are light, useful and easy to carry in boxes or bags. In the Essential range, bottle openers, carabiners and trolley tokens work well: they take up little space, get used properly and can be branded with pad printing or laser engraving depending on the material.
On items this small, a simple logo works better than a long name in a fine font. If your brand relies on an exact colour, pad printing helps; if it includes gradients or a small image, UV digital printing is better. You can add them to your event merchandise in the same handout.
PVC keyring in a customised shape with your logo on 1 side From HUF 358 with your logo 
Iron pin in a custom shape with soft enamel logo design From HUF 395 with your logo For key handovers and everyday use
If the giveaway will stay with a set of keys, a keyring is still the most sensible choice. You can get them in metal, bamboo or mixed materials, and also with features such as a bottle opener, spirit level, retractable clip or radiator key, usually with laser engraving or pad printing so the logo stands up well to rubbing in a pocket or bag.
The usual mistake is choosing on shape alone. The one that stays in the pocket is the one that solves a problem and relates to what you do: a house, a bottle opener or a small tool. If you want to compare split rings, carabiners and formats, see the guide to branded keyrings.
100% Cotton Short Lanyard Keyring From HUF 208 with your logo 
Dolan keyring Screen Printing From HUF 318 with your logo For staff and practical welcome packs
For younger teams, construction, maintenance or welcome packs, giveaways with an immediate use or a bit of talking value tend to work better. The Plus range includes formats such as retractable clips, trade-shaped designs and lightweight accessories that can be branded in colour or full colour on small areas.
If they are going inside a mailing or being handed out at reception, check the weight and bulk before the visual size. A compact item is less of a nuisance and more likely to be kept. To round out the handout, you can combine it with promotional gifts for companies in the same order.

Walnut and PU keyring Laser engraving From HUF 450 with your logo For clients, thank-yous and anniversaries
When the giveaway is for a client or a memorable occasion, it is worth stepping up the material and finish. In the Premium range you will see pieces in metal, recycled zinc alloy or bamboo, and useful formats that take a clean, discreet laser engraving that stands up to daily use.
Avoid thin plastic if you want a more considered feel. On a small item, a symbol or short version of the logo is usually easier to read than the full logo, and the reverse can be kept for a date or event name.
