All prices in USD — updated July 4, 2026. “Order total (from)” is the total at the first quantity in the range — for example, 100 beaded bands are 100 × $19.50 = $1,950. At a tier break, a few more bands can cost less overall — the 3D designer flags this automatically. Orders over 1,000 bands are estimated at the 1,000-band rate — reach out for a custom quote.
Mixing bead types
Mixing bead types on one band.
All bead colours and woods cost the same — only the number of different bead types matters. Two types are always included, three from 100 bands, unlimited from 500. Woven cotton bands carry no beads, so this never applies to them.
| Quantity (bands) | Bead types included | Each additional type |
|---|---|---|
| 5 – 9 | 2 | $5.00 / band |
| 10 – 19 | 2 | $3.00 / band |
| 20 – 29 | 2 | $2.00 / band |
| 30 – 49 | 2 | $1.50 / band |
| 50 – 99 | 2 | $1.00 / band |
| 100 – 499 | 3 | $0.50 / band |
| 500 – 1,000 | Unlimited | — |
Example: 50 beaded bands with four bead types — $25.00 base + 2 extra types × $1.00 = $27.00 a band, $1,350 total. The 3D designer prices your exact mix live.
What affects price
Three things set the per-band price.
Band style
Woven cotton is the lower-priced style; drawstring and elastic beaded bands are priced identically. Any bead colour, wood or tag shape — same price.
Encoding & branding
Check-in or access encoding, branded event hubs and agency white-label are quoted per event.
Pricing questions
Frequently asked
How much do custom event wristbands cost?
Pricing is per band and falls with quantity: woven cotton runs $70 a band at the five-band minimum down to $12 at 500+; beaded bands (drawstring or elastic) run $80 down to $14. Most organizers order one band per attendee, and you approve a proof before you pay.
What is the minimum order?
Five bands. At the minimum, a woven cotton order is $350 ($70 a band) and a beaded order is $400 ($80 a band) — small runs carry most of the setup work, which is why the per-band price falls quickly as quantity grows.
Is there a charge for mixing bead types?
Two different bead types are always included in the band price. From 100 bands, three are included; from 500 bands, mix as many as you like at no extra cost. Below those thresholds each additional type adds $0.50 to $5 per band, depending on quantity.
Do woven cotton and beaded bands cost the same?
No — the woven organic-cotton band is the lower-priced style. The two beaded constructions, drawstring and elastic, are priced identically. At 100 bands, for example, cotton is $17.50 a band and beaded is $19.50.
What does the price include?
Everything you design: laser engraving on both faces (your event brand on the front, each attendee’s name on the back), the sealed tap-to-share chip with its printed QR fallback, and access to the live shared album with one-click export. No setup fees.
What about orders over 1,000 bands?
The designer estimates them at the 1,000-band rate ($12 a band for cotton, $14 for beaded), and we prepare a custom quote — email hello@wearableevents.com with your headcount and date and we’ll price it for your event.
When do we pay?
After you approve your proof. Design in 3D, request your order, and we send a proof of your beads, wood tag and engraving — nothing is made and nothing is charged until you say it’s right.
Do you offer volume or partner pricing?
Yes — orders over 1,000 bands are quoted individually, and repeat or white-label programs get partner terms. Talk to our team for a quote.
