Stock adaptation or custom development — which is right for you?

Two proven paths. Use stock adaptation for speed and low minimums; use custom development for signature pieces that are exclusively yours.

Why work with a factory that also kits — instead of a trading company?

We own our core production lines and coordinate the full material range. That means direct pricing, tighter quality control and one accountable partner.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The questions buyers ask most often — with concrete numbers and direct answers.

What is the minimum order for custom board game components?+
Metal coins and acrylic tokens start at 500 pieces. Custom dice start at 1,000 pieces. Card dividers start at 1,000 pieces. Playmats start at 300 pieces. For crowdfunding creators, these minimums align well with typical pledge levels — and we can combine multiple component types in a single production run.
How long does it take to produce custom board game coins and tokens?+
Metal coins (zinc alloy): sampling 7–10 days, production 15–25 days. Acrylic tokens/stands: sampling 5–7 days, production 10–15 days. For a full game component kit with multiple product types, we recommend engaging 10–16 weeks before your fulfillment date to sample, approve and mass-produce with confidence.
Can you produce deluxe upgrade components for crowdfunding stretch goals?+
Yes. This is one of our specialties. We produce premium metal coin sets, acrylic token upgrades, custom dice, card dividers, playmats and storage boxes — exactly the kind of deluxe upgrades that drive stretch goal pledges. Our in-house zinc alloy and acrylic production means the premium heft and clarity that backers reward.
How much do custom board game components cost?+
Reference FOB prices: metal coins (zinc alloy) $0.40–$1.50/pc, acrylic tokens/stands $0.20–$1.20/pc, custom dice $0.30–$1.50/pc, card dividers $0.10–$0.50/pc, playmats $2.00–$6.00/pc. Pricing decreases significantly at higher quantities. For a full kit, we provide a consolidated quote so you can accurately calculate your cost-per-backer.
How do you handle crowdfunding fulfillment timelines?+
We understand pledge timelines and freight. We plan production backwards from your fulfillment date with buffer time for unexpected delays. We provide milestone updates throughout production, and can arrange sea freight, air freight or drop-shipping to your fulfillment center. If your campaign overfunds and quantities increase, we can scale production without restarting the timeline.
Can you kit all components together for one delivery?+
Yes — this is our core advantage. Instead of sourcing metal coins from one factory, acrylic from another, dice from a third, and then assembling yourself, we manufacture and kit everything together. The complete set of matched components arrives in one delivery, sorted and ready for packaging or direct fulfillment. This saves you weeks of coordination and reduces the risk of components arriving at different times.
